Commission-only sales reps, without the plumbing.
Post a commission rule, reps generate a Stripe Payment Link for your product, customers pay you directly through Stripe. No integration lift, no subscription fee — variable platform revenue share taken as part of Stripe's application fee on each sale.
How it works
- 1Connect Stripe in one click
Standard Stripe OAuth — you keep full control of your Stripe account. We get scoped permission to set application_fee_percent on charges through RepBlend Payment Links.
- 2Give reps a useful product brief
Introduce your company, explain what the customer receives and who buys it, and describe how the rep sells it. Use the optional AI wording helper, review the preview, then publish your listing.
- 3Choose the commission and its duration
Offer a percentage or a flat amount on a one-time sale. For subscriptions, choose the first payment, the first few payments, or every payment while the customer stays. Existing customers keep their agreed commission term.
- 4Reps generate a Payment Link
One-click enlist from their side. We call stripe.paymentLinks.create on your connected account with the rep ID in metadata and an application fee equal to our 5% platform fee plus the rep commission rate you set.
- 5Customers pay you directly
The charge hits your Stripe balance as a direct charge — funds never pool with us. Your customer, your Stripe dashboard, your payout schedule.
- 6Reps get paid automatically
On invoice.payment_succeeded, RepBlend routes the rep commission to the originating rep as their agent. You don't pay reps directly — RepBlend's agent-of-payee routing handles it. Within 30 days, refunds and disputes claw back pro-rata. After 30 days, rep's commission is locked in.
What we don't do
We don't touch your pricing. You set Stripe Prices in your own account; we don't negotiate them.
We don't see your customer list. Every customer is created on your Stripe account via direct charge. We only see the invoice metadata we need to route commissions.
We don't hold your money. Your share of every sale lands directly in your Stripe balance as a direct charge. The application fee slice (our 5% plus the rep commission) passes through our Stripe balance only while Stripe settles the payment — typically a few business days — and only for the purpose of routing rep commissions as their agent.
We don't hire reps for you. Reps are independent sellers using our marketplace. Not your employees, not your contractors, not your affiliates. You set the commission rate, they choose to enlist. No HR, no payroll, no misclassification exposure on your side.
We don't lock you in. Disconnect Stripe anytime; your Products and customers belong to you.
The mechanic (Pattern A)
When a rep enlists to sell your $500/mo product at a 20% commission rule, we create a Stripe Payment Link on your connected account with an application fee of 25% (our 5% platform fee plus the 20% commission you authorized to the rep). Every charge through that link credits $375 to your Stripe balance and $125 to RepBlend's platform balance.
On invoice.payment_succeeded, RepBlend retains its $25 platform fee as revenue and routes the $100 rep commission to the originating rep's Stripe balance via stripe.Transfer.create. RepBlend receives the $100 as the rep's agent (agent-of-payee) — it's the rep's money from the moment of receipt.
This is Stripe's 'direct charge' pattern. Your share of every sale stays in your Stripe balance. Same shape Substack uses for writer payouts.
30-day clawback window (how refunds work)
Refund a customer within 30 days of the original charge: we automatically claw back the rep's commission (via Stripe Transfer reversal) and unwind our 5% platform fee. You end up whole.
Refund a customer more than 30 days after the original charge: the rep keeps their commission, we keep our platform fee, and you absorb the refund from your Stripe balance. Reps are paid for closing the sale, not for your long-term product performance.
For subscriptions, each monthly invoice is its own 30-day window. Month-4 refund on month-4 charge is clawable only if within 30 days of that month's charge, not of the original subscription start.
This is the same structure PartnerStack, Impact, and Rewardful use. We picked 30 days because it covers buyer's remorse cleanly without pushing reps into negative balances.
5% per sale, only when a sale lands.
No subscription. No integration. No credit card on file. Literal zero cost if reps never close for you.
