Chess.com Premium Membership Affiliate Program:

If and when those members that you brought to Chess.com renew their memberships, you are credited your affiliate earnings for life. Meaning, every renewal of a new member earns you 15% of the renewal/upgrade fee forever.
+ Affiliates are given a cash kickback for any and all premium members they send to Chess.com.
+ It takes minimal setup work, and can yield passive income to you or your organization for doing nothing more than suggesting a service you fully believe in and enjoy yourself.
+ Affiliates must be approved by Chess.com's Vice President of Marketing and Operations.
+ Some of their most active affiliates earn hundreds (on occasion, even thousands) of dollars a month. They do this by attaching their unique affiliate id to any link that leads to Chess.com, and if / when a visitor becomes a new member and eventually upgrades to premium members, affiliates get paid.
