The leaderboard

Two ways to rank. Both matter.

Volume
Total sales this month

Raw count of sales driven by your code. Rewards creators who move product at scale.

Efficiency
Sales relative to audience size

Score = (sales ÷ followers) × 1,000. Rewards creators who convert their audience, not just ones with large followings.

— Leaderboards reset at 12:00am EST on the 1st of each month.
— Your position this month determines your commission rate next month. March standings set April's rate.
— Every creator competes under an alias. Your real name is never shown on the public leaderboard.
— The full leaderboard is visible to all logged-in creators. Top 10 of either board unlocks a higher rate at the start of the next month.
Why creators

We don't run ads.

Vail0 is a tool built by one person. There's no marketing budget, no VC money to burn, and no desire to buy attention from platforms that take 90 cents of every dollar and show nothing for it. Instead, we pay the people who actually reach audiences — directly, and at rates that make the partnership worth having.

Most affiliate programs offer 10–20% and bury the terms. This program starts at 50% and goes up from there. The commission comes from Vail0's cut, not from artificially inflated prices. When you send someone who pays for Vail0, you get half of what they paid. That's the deal. No holds, no clawbacks, no fine print that changes after you build an audience around it.

Creators deserve transparency. These are the exact numbers. The exact rules. Nothing hidden.

FAQ

Questions.

Who can apply? +
Creators based in the USA with 5,000 or more followers on a single platform. Every application is reviewed manually by the Vail0 team — we look at your platform, content, and follower count. You'll receive an email within 1–3 business days. We'll tell you either way.
When and how do I get paid? +
Payouts go out on the 5th of each month for the prior month's earnings. The minimum payout threshold is $100. Payments are sent directly to your US bank account or debit card via Stripe Connect. You'll need to set up your payout method after approval before your first payout can be sent.
What is Vail0? +
Vail0 is a Gmail inbox utility. The free tier lets you mark all messages as read in a single click. The paid tier unlocks additional inbox management features: $1.49 as a one-time purchase (no account required), or $12/year for an annual license. Your vanity code works at Stripe checkout on vail0.com.
Why is this USA-only? +
Payouts require a US bank account or debit card via Stripe Connect, and 1099 tax reporting is US-specific. We may expand to other countries in the future, but for now the program is open to US-based creators only.
What about taxes and 1099s? +
If you earn $600 or more in a calendar year through this program, Vail0 will issue you a 1099-NEC. You are responsible for your own tax obligations. We'll collect your tax information as part of the Stripe Connect onboarding process.
What does "efficiency" mean on the leaderboard? +
Efficiency score = (your total sales ÷ your follower count) × 1,000. A creator with 8,000 followers who drives 20 sales this month scores 2.50. A creator with 200,000 followers who drives 30 sales scores 0.15. Efficiency rewards conversion, not just reach. It exists so smaller creators can compete for top tier rates on equal footing with much larger accounts.
