FAQ
Common questions.
It depends on your community size and AI tool adoption. Operators with 5,000-member communities are seeing meaningful monthly recurring income. The calculator above gives you a personalised estimate based on your audience size.
They sign up through your portal link — same as any other tool signup — and start earning cashback on their AI subscriptions. No special steps, no new workflow. For most members, it takes under two minutes.
Vest earns affiliate revenue from the AI tool companies when your community members subscribe. We share a percentage of that revenue with you monthly, tied directly to your members' actual spend — not one-off clicks.
Your branded portal is unique to you. We work with a limited number of operator partners to maintain quality — we don't accept every application.
Operator earnings are calculated monthly and paid out automatically. You'll have a dashboard showing member signups, spend tracking, and pending vs. available earnings.
There isn't one. Vest earns from affiliate programs. Your community earns cashback. You earn a share of that affiliate revenue. All three win from the same transaction — your members' existing AI subscriptions.
Smaller, high-trust communities often outperform larger, lower-engagement ones. A 500-person mastermind with heavy AI users can generate more than a 50,000-person newsletter where AI isn't central. Tell us about your community and we'll advise.
