Flodesk affiliate program software: affiliates synced into Flodesk, sales credited by your gateway.
Flodesk pulls creative-minded founders because the email designer is genuinely beautiful and the segment model stays simple. Rekomi syncs affiliates into a Flodesk segment so your branded onboarding sequence keeps the same visual polish you put into your customer emails. Sales are not credited through the Flodesk connection, because Flodesk has nowhere to store which link a subscriber arrived from; the standard install (your gateway under Setup plus the Rekomi script on your site) does that.
From paste-API-key to first paid affiliate in 10 minutes.
Paste your Flodesk API key into Rekomi. Rekomi runs a test call to verify the key, then pulls your list/audience picker live from Flodesk so you pick the right destination.
Affiliates apply via your public landing page or your bulk invite. Approve them manually, auto-approve on a campaign, or import an existing affiliate roster from Rewardful and six other platforms via Settings > Migrate.
Approved affiliates land in your Flodesk list as tagged subscribers within seconds. Rekomi handles idempotency, retries, and per-campaign overrides; you handle the nurture sequence.
The exact Flodesk fields Rekomi writes.
No surprise fields, no overwrites of contact data you already have. Empty values are omitted so existing nurture data is preserved.
- Referred customers and leads (optional): every attributed sale or lead is upserted on email with the referring affiliate, campaign and last event in custom fields, tagged
Rekomi customerorRekomi lead POST /v1/subscriberswithemail,first_name,last_name,segment_ids: ["segId"]- Status is server-managed (read-only), Flodesk decides; new subscribers default to
active - Sync semantics: upsert by email, returns 200 with updated record
- Test endpoint:
GET /v1/segments?per_page=1(verifies key without polluting your segments) - Segments are Flodesk's only segmentation primitive, no tags, no lists, just segments
- Not read back: Flodesk keeps no record of which link a subscriber came from and has no place to hold one, so this connection syncs affiliates only and never credits sales
What Flodesk customers actually do with Rekomi.
Brand-aesthetic-matching affiliate welcome
Build a Flodesk Workflow on `Segment joined: Affiliates`: send a designed welcome email that matches your customer-facing brand exactly. The visual continuity from customer-touchpoint to affiliate-touchpoint is the whole point of Flodesk, Rekomi preserves it.
Course-creator affiliate cohort
Flodesk's flat pricing ($35/month for unlimited subscribers) works well for course creators with growing audiences. Rekomi's $29 Starter pairs cleanly, both are flat-rate, both are creator-focused, both reward audience growth instead of penalizing it.
Multiple segments for differentiated affiliate cohorts
Use Flodesk segments to separate affiliate types: 'Top Affiliates' for top performers, 'Course Affiliates' for course-buyer cohort, 'Standard Affiliates' for everyone else. Rekomi's per-campaign overrides let each campaign target a different segment without disturbing the others.
Rekomi handles Flodesk's edge cases so you don't have to.
Every CRM API has quirks. Rekomi's integration code was built and audited against the live Flodeskdocs, these are the ones you'd otherwise hit yourself.
Flodesk's API does not let you set subscriber status (active / unsubscribed), it's server-managed. If you send `status` in the payload, Flodesk 400s with 'status is read-only'. Rekomi never sends status; new subscribers default to active automatically.
Flodesk has segments but no tags. Rekomi's tags array is ignored for Flodesk; segmentation happens via the segment_ids you pick in the connect flow. For tag-like behavior, create multiple segments and use per-campaign override to route.
Flodesk's $35/month flat for unlimited subscribers is part of the value proposition. Rekomi's $29 flat for unlimited affiliates matches that posture. Together: $64/month total for the email + affiliate stack regardless of audience size.
Built for creators, course sellers, and aesthetic-first small businesses on Flodesk Unlimited ($35/month). If you picked Flodesk because the email designer makes your sends actually look good, Rekomi adds the affiliate program without breaking that design continuity.
Common Flodesk questions.
Does Flodesk have an affiliate program?
Flodesk runs a referral program (50% commission for the first year) for promoting Flodesk itself. That's separate from running YOUR affiliate program. Rekomi is the platform for the latter, your customers become your affiliates, with Flodesk as the design layer for outbound emails to them.
Does the Flodesk connection credit sales to affiliates?
No, and the integration page shows no Credit sales switch. Flodesk has no place on any hosted form, page or checkout to store which link a subscriber arrived from, so there is nothing for Rekomi to read back. Sales are credited the standard way: connect the payment gateway behind your checkout under Setup (Flodesk Checkout bills through a Stripe account Flodesk created for you, so connect that one) and install the Rekomi script on your site where affiliate links land.
Can Flodesk handle high-volume sends?
Flodesk's unlimited-subscriber pricing is suited for active list growth, but the platform's strength is creative + scheduled sends rather than triggered transactional volume. For high-volume transactional affiliate notifications, pair Flodesk with a transactional provider like Brevo Transactional or Postmark.
What's the minimum Flodesk plan?
Flodesk Unlimited is the only paid plan ($35/month). The free trial (30 days) includes API access. Rekomi's API needs are minimal (subscribe contacts to segments + verify segments exist), so even trial accounts work for testing.
Is this Flodesk's own affiliate program?
No. Flodesk pays its own affiliates to promote Flodesk, and approved Partners earn a share through PartnerStack. This page is affiliate software for Flodesk businesses: your program runs in Rekomi and approved affiliates land in a Flodesk segment. Flodesk has nowhere to store which link a subscriber arrived from, so Flodesk affiliate tracking runs through your payment gateway and the Rekomi script on your site, never through Flodesk itself.
