How it works

Three steps. About five minutes to start.

1

Apply & get your link

Sign up free. Once you're approved, we send your unique referral link — plus a dashboard to track clicks and earnings anytime.

2

Share it

Drop your link in your bio, videos, study guide, or group. Anyone who clicks is tracked to you for 60 days.

3

Get paid

When they buy, you earn 20%. We hold 30 days to clear refunds, then pay out by direct deposit, monthly.

What you earn

20% of every sale — up front, not spread over months.

20%
of every sale — about $9.80 on a $49 bundle, one time per customer.
60 days
Referral cookie. A follower who clicks today and buys weeks later still counts as yours.
Monthly
Direct deposit to your bank once your balance passes $25. No caps, no quotas.
For example: if 20 of your followers buy in a month, that's about $196 to you — for sharing a link once. There's no cap on how much you can earn.

Most big prep apps pay 15% of a subscription — a few dollars, spread over months. NICPrep pays 20% of the full price, up front. It's free to join, and a partner sale is almost always one you'd never have made otherwise.

Why it's easy to recommend

A product your audience will actually thank you for.

NICPrep is practice tests and flashcards built domain-by-domain from the official NIC content outlines — the way the real state-board exam is written. You're not pushing a random link; you're handing your followers the thing that helps them pass.

✓Audited question banks — every item reviewed against the official NIC CIB.
✓Every discipline — Cosmetology, Nail Tech, Esthetics, Barber, and more, plus California & Texas.
✓Full-length timed mock exams at the real NIC pace, with full rationales.
✓Study in Spanish, Vietnamese & Korean — reach audiences other prep can't.
✓AI study tutor + domain-mastery tracking that targets weak spots.
✓One-time, lifetime access from $49 — an easy yes, no subscription.

Common questions

Partner FAQ

How and when do I get paid?
Monthly, by direct deposit to your bank, once your balance passes $25. Commissions are held 30 days first so any refunds clear before you're paid.
How is a sale tracked to me?
Your unique referral link sets a 60-day cookie when someone clicks it. If they buy within 60 days — even on a later visit — the sale is credited to you automatically.
Can I track my clicks and earnings?
Yes. After you're approved, visit the partner dashboard and enter your email to see clicks, sales, pending balance, and paid history in real time.
Do I need a big audience?
No. An engaged, on-topic audience — exam candidates and beauty students — converts far better than a large general one. Micro-creators do great here.
Is there any cost or quota?
None. It's free to join, there are no minimums, and there's no cap on what you can earn.
What are the rules?
Disclose the partnership per FTC guidelines, no spam or misleading "guaranteed pass" claims, and please don't run paid ads on our brand terms. That's it.
