PDF Content Creator Program

Written by Matt on Sunday 30th November 2025

Introduction

Hello PDF Content Creators,

Introducing a unique program specifically designed for you and your communities.

Our PDF Content Creator Program allows you to offer our PDF printing services to your audience as a print option for your PDF content, and provides benefits to you and your community members. Earn incremental revenue simply by referring your audience to order a print of your PDF.

It works primarily as a post-sale feature, but we also offer a method to sell prints through your platform using our patented print distribution tools.

Key Features:

PDF Printing Affiliate Registration- No coding required

Register as an affiliate to get a referral link for you account. Share it on your site, social media, or in your PDFs download page or the PDF itself. No coding needed.

Custom Promo Codes

We'll provide you with a custom promo code based on your reach and PDF content that can be shared with your community. Share that as a benefit to your membership, and an incentive to order prints.

Affiliate Commissions- Active Earnings

When your users click the affiliate link and advance through the checkout on our site, affiliate commission is recorded. There is also a bonus period for new visitors when printing other PDF's. When you sell a digital download, the most effective place to provide the referral link is the confirmation email and a download instruction PDF.

Hosting Commissions- Passive Earnings (optional)

Once registered, upload your PDF's into our secure hosting account to track any activity that comes through without any affiliate click. We'll record commission from those sales separately should they occur. To use this feature, upload your PDF content into your hosting account on printMe1.com.

Our hosting features also include a method to allow your users to order from the hosted link, and optionally activate an approval link.

The hosting features includes an option to provide a link to the stored print version so your users do not need to upload to the print service. Works great when a direct link to the print version is needed. With this feature you can also enable an approval option that holds each print purchase until you confirm the user is allowed to print the PDF.

CSV Batch Processing

Selling print through your site? Just export sales data to generate a daily batch of print orders to send to printMe1.com. We can handle processing multiple orders to different recipients from a CSV file of data, all in one single transaction. It works with single PDFs or multiple PDFs. All you need is a CSV export of data on an interval that works best for you. There's no charge to use this feature.

API Integration

For advanced set-ups requiring more automation, connect from our API. Contact us for instructions.

How To Get started:

Register for our affiliate program.

Send us a message with your details: from our contact us page. Tell us about your PDF content, and send your website URL and audience info.

We'll review and respond quickly!

FAQ's:

  • How is commission calculated?

We pay two separate types of commission: Affiliate and Hosting. Affiliate is commission generated from a direct sale from a referral click, or from any subsequent transactions made by a new visitor during their new visitor bonus period. Hosting commission is generated from a transaction involving the affiliate's hosted PDF that had no referral click. In this case, the site recognizes the PDF and the owner and attributes Hosted commission.

  • How much is commission?

Our commission is paid on the entire sale, including shipping. Our starting rate is 3.5% for both Affiliate Commission and Hosting Commission.

  • What content do you accept for this program?

All copyright must be 100% property of the affiliate, or have an appropriate Creative Commons license , or be in the Public Domain.

  • Do you ship internationally?

We ship to Canada and the UK, in addition to the US. Please contact us for other options.
