The flat fee is stated as 'up to' $50. The page says the program is not taking new affiliates right now. Added seats bought within a year of signup also earn rewards.

02The economicsIllustrative

What this structure costs on your numbers

Take a plan of $50 a month: $600 in the first 12 months, at a 70% gross margin. Keeping half of the gross profit leaves a reward budget of $210 for each referred customer. These are example figures, not Notion's.

With Notion's structure, the rewards for one referred customer cost $170. For 100 referred customers, if 50% would not have bought anyway, the program returns $4,000 of net contribution (23.5% ROI). It breaks even when 40.5% of referred customers are new because of it.
