Affiliate Infrastructure for Developers
Rye routes eligible orders through affiliate networks so developers earn commissions — no extra work required.
The Protocol
How it works
Order placement
Developer places order via Rye API. No specific affiliate parameters required initially.
Commission captured
Rye tracks attribution across global networks using our proprietary schematic routing.
Payout issued
Monthly invoices (1st–7th), paid via ACH or Wire transfer directly to your registered account.
Two paths to commissions
