Monetization
Integrators earn a default 0.5% commission on all shifts, configurable from 0% to 2% using the commissionRate parameter. Users of integrations shift at competitive rates; the commission is included in the exchange rate, not added on top.
Setup Requirements
To receive commissions, you must include your Account ID as the affiliateId in all shift creation requests. SideShift.ai uses this to track and attribute shifts to your integration.
