Creators & influencers

You're here

Promo codes, tracked /go links, and a first-payment bounty for creators, newsletters, and agencies. Aggregates only — no customer identities.

Microsoft partners

SI, Azure specialist, or advisory

Bake Kimss into client architectures. Wholesale via Azure Marketplace private offers — not a Stripe affiliate bounty.

Microsoft partner program

Creators

Teach with Forge. Convert with your link.

Demo pip install kimss-forge with no account — that install is not tracked. Send people to your /go link (or code) when they attach the plane so clicks, signups, and the bounty can land.

Audience perk

30 days of Production, no card

Through your approved /go link only. Then subscribe to Production or Scale. Public signups without your link stay on a 14-day Production trial, no credit card.

Same day

Clicks and signups

Your dashboard shows clicks (30d) and signups (90d) the day they happen. A bounty can take 60+ days (trial, first paid invoice, 30-day cooling).

Payout

Wise or PayPal

Monthly after a tax form is on file. One bounty per customer, hybrid floor from $75 for creators.

Partner program

Share Kimss.
Earn on the first payment.

Distribute a Production or Scale promo code — or a tracked /go link. You earn a one-time bounty after the customer's first successful payment — aggregates only, no customer identities.

Tutorial

How you benefit

Sixteen seconds: thirty days of Production on your go link, fifteen percent when they pay, and when the bounty shows.

What you share
A unique KIMSS-<HANDLE> code (15% off first 3 months) and a tracked link kimss.ai/go/<HANDLE>.
What you earn
Creators from $75; agencies from $100; newsletters $50 CPA. See floor & cap for how a $49 Production signup still pays $75.
When it pays
The bounty waits 30 days so a refund or dispute can void it, then it clears into the monthly batch.
Three steps

How it works

Manual review. Scoped codes. One bounty per new customer — not a coupon dump.

01 · Apply

Tell us who you are

Submit a short application with the promo handle you want. We review manually — approval is not automatic.

02 · Share

Get your code + link

Once approved you receive a scoped KIMSS-<HANDLE> code and /go/<HANDLE> for Production and Scale. First-time checkout only for the discount.

03 · Earn

First payment

A bounty is recorded when that customer's first subscription invoice is paid. Payout waits out a 30-day cooling period.

Hybrid bounty

Floor, rate, and cap

Creators and agencies earn one bounty on the customer's first successful payment. The formula uses a minimum (floor), a share of that invoice (rate), and a maximum (cap).

Floor
The minimum you earn. Creators $75; agencies $100. Protects you when the first invoice is a monthly Production signup.
Rate
Creators 50% of first-invoice net; agencies 60%. If that share is higher than the floor, you get the higher amount.
Cap
The maximum on that one bounty — $1,000. Large annual invoices cannot go above the cap.

bounty = min($1,000, max(floor, rate × first invoice net))

  • Production $49/mo (typical creator referral) — 50% of $49 is about $24.50, which is below the floor, so you receive $75. Even with the customer's 15% promo, the first invoice is smaller — the floor still pays $75.
  • Scale $199/mo — 50% of $199 is about $99.50, above the $75 floor, so you receive about $99.50.
  • Large first invoice (e.g. annual Scale) — the rate can climb well above the floor, but never past the $1,000 cap.

Newsletters use a flat $50 CPA (no hybrid). One bounty per customer, then the 30-day cooling period — not a recurring cut of every invoice.

Pitch kit

What you'd be pitching

Kimss is a Secure Enterprise Agent Control Plane — you bring the runtime and keys; Kimss is the control plane: identity-tied keys, logged calls, spend caps, and a kill switch. You are not selling a chatbot or a model host.

Best fit audience: AI engineers, platform teams, and automation agencies building multi-model apps — people who care about inventory, kill switch, and governed spend, not generic “AI tools.”

Talking point 01

You bring the runtime

BYOK and your own agents. Kimss sits as the control plane — registry, identity mapping, and an authoritative kill switch at the gateway.

Talking point 02

Data stays yours

Kimss does not host models or resell compute. Identity-tied keys and logged calls keep usage attributable without handing the customer’s stack to a black box.

Talking point 03

Spend you can cap

Governed requests and caps so platform and security leads can answer “who ran what, and what did it cost?” — not an open-ended credit dump.

client = OpenAI(
  base_url="https://api.kimss.ai/v1",
  api_key=os.environ["KIMSS_API_KEY"],
  default_headers={"X-Kimss-Agent-Id": "my_agent"},
)

Show the three-parameter swap on screen. Fork kimss-python-quickstart for a drop-in tutorial demo.

Do

  • Disclose the partnership (#ad / paid partnership) when you promote.
  • Put the promo code on screen or in the caption; or share kimss.ai/go/<HANDLE>.
  • Point people to kimss.ai/pricing for Production or Scale.
  • Stick to the 15% first-3-months offer and the product story above.

Don't

  • Promise “free forever,” unlimited quotas, or prices you invented.
  • Claim Kimss hosts models, replaces the customer’s stack, or is a “universal gateway.”
  • Claim multi-model routing, fallbacks, or caching Kimss does not ship.
  • Tell people the code works on Azure Marketplace — it does not.
  • Share customer identities or ask Kimss for who converted — you only see aggregates.

After approval, your dashboard includes copy-paste captions with your real KIMSS-<HANDLE> and /go link filled in.

Channels

Who this program is for

Creators

AI engineering tutorials

Weave Kimss in as the best-practice control plane for keys, spend caps, and kill switch. Hybrid floor from $75 per first payment.

Agencies

Automation hand-off

Each client gets their own Kimss workspace and billing. You earn one bounty per client subscription — annual plans pay most under the hybrid floor (from $100).

Newsletters

Tracked links

Share kimss.ai/go/<HANDLE> — no code typing required for attribution. Flat $50 CPA; sponsorship fees stay off-ledger.

For your audience

How your audience redeems

Show them this path once. The discount applies on Stripe Checkout — not inside the Kimss product shell.

  1. Open pricing and pick a plan

    Go to kimss.ai/pricing (or your /go link) and choose Production or Scale.

  2. Click “Add promotion code”

    On the secure Stripe checkout page, use the promotion-code control.

  3. Enter your partner code

    Type KIMSS-<HANDLE>. The price drops 15% for the first 3 months. (Tracked-link visits still attribute you even if they skip the code.)

  4. Pay — you get credited

    When their first subscription invoice is paid successfully, your one-time bounty is attributed automatically.

Fine print: first-time checkout only for the discount; codes expire on a quarterly rotation; Azure Marketplace purchases cannot be attributed through this program.

FAQ

Questions partners ask first

Do I need a Kimss product account?
No. Partners sign in on this site with a one-time email link. You do not need the Kimss workspace or Microsoft signup.
What plans can my code apply to?
Production and Scale only. Marketplace subscriptions cannot be attributed through this program.
Where does my audience enter the code?
On Stripe Checkout after they pick Production or Scale at kimss.ai/pricing. They click Add promotion code, type your KIMSS-<HANDLE> code, and the 15% discount applies for the first 3 months. Newsletters can share kimss.ai/go/<HANDLE> instead. See How your audience redeems.
What do I actually say about Kimss?
Kimss is a Secure Enterprise Agent Control Plane: you bring the runtime and keys; Kimss is the control plane — identity-tied keys, logged calls, spend caps, kill switch. Use the pitch kit; after approval your dashboard has copy-paste captions with your real code and link.
Can my audience use the code on the Marketplace?
No. Azure Marketplace subscriptions cannot be attributed through this program. Codes work only on Production and Scale checkout at kimss.ai/pricing.
What do I see after approval?
Your code, tracked /go link, attributed checkout counts, bounty balance after the cooling period, statements, and a pitch kit with copy-paste captions. Never customer names or emails.
Does a Forge install count as a conversion?
No. pip install kimss-forge does not hit Kimss. Only your kimss.ai/go/HANDLE link or the promo code attributes a signup or bounty.
How long until a bounty pays?
Clicks and signups show the same day. A bounty can take 60+ days: the no-card trial, then a first paid invoice, then a 30-day cooling period. We do not pay for signups.
How do payouts work?
One bounty per customer after their first successful payment. Creators from $75; agencies from $100; newsletters $50 CPA. Hybrid floor can rise with annual first invoices. It stays in a 30-day cooling period so refunds and disputes can void it. Monthly statements follow. Tax forms are reviewed before the first payout. See Floor, rate, and cap.
What do floor and cap mean?
For creators: bounty = min($1,000, max($75, 50% × first invoice net)). On a real Production $49/mo signup, 50% is about $24.50 — below the floor — so you still earn $75. On Scale $199/mo, 50% is about $99.50, so you earn that higher amount. The $1,000 cap is the maximum on that one bounty (large annual invoices). Full examples: Floor, rate, and cap.
