## About

Kit (formerly ConvertKit) is the email marketing platform built for creators — bloggers, YouTubers, podcasters, indie makers, and course creators. It provides powerful automation sequences, visual automation builder, landing pages, paid newsletter support, and subscriber tagging and segmentation. Kit serves over 600,000 creators and is known for its simplicity and creator-first philosophy compared to Mailchimp or ActiveCampaign.
The affiliate program offers 50% recurring commission for the first 12 months — one of the most generous rates in email marketing. High-volume affiliates (10+ referrals/year) continue earning 10-20% tiered recurring beyond the initial 12-month window. With plans scaling based on subscriber count, successful creators with large lists generate significant recurring affiliate revenue. Kit rebranded from ConvertKit in 2024.
