Monetize your network
You have spent a career collecting people — the directors, the actors, the agents, the editors, the crews you keep re-hiring. That list has made other people money for years and has never once made you any. Bring it here and it does.
Free to join, and nothing on this page asks you to have made a film.
How the money moves
- They join through your linkA code you choose, on a call sheet or in a signature.
- They workStream, launch a channel, raise, license, sell a placement.
- The platform earns, and so do youA share of the fee OpenFlix keeps — and the full rate on any plan.
01 How it works
- 01
Bring the room
You get a link, a code you choose yourself and a printable QR that lands on the OpenFlix start page — the one that forks eight ways for filmmakers. Put it in a signature, on a call sheet, on the back of a card, in a syllabus. Anyone who arrives through it is attributed to you for 30 days.
- 02
They do what they were going to do anyway
Stream a film. Launch a channel. Raise money. Sell a placement. License a script. You are not asking anyone to buy something they did not want — you are pointing working people at the place that does the thing they already need.
- 03
You earn a share of what the platform makes
Not a share of their money. A share of the fee OpenFlix keeps, plus the full 30% on any plan they subscribe to. Every referral also lands in your own contact book as a client, so the list you brought is a list you keep.
02 What actually pays, and what does not
- They subscribe to a plan30%of the subscription, on every renewalThe largest rate in the program, and the only one taken off the full price. If you read one row, read this one.
- Their household takes a MovieHop Pass20%of the platform's fee, on every renewalA share of what OpenFlix keeps, not of what the household pays.
- They buy a Station Pass20%of the platform's 20% share of the pass price, on every paymentEach day pass and each monthly payment is its own sale. The processing fee is never part of it.
- They raise money on the Film Fund20%of the platform's 5% feeRewards crowdfunding. Backers get perks and credits; nobody is buying a share of a film.
- They sell a placement inside their film20%of the platform's 10% feeBanked when the balance is collected, not when the slot is reserved.
- They buy credits, on the web or on a television5%of the purchaseIncludes top-ups bought inside the Google Play, Roku and Amazon apps.
- Somebody you brought in does this too3%of their sales, one level deepOne level, by design. This is not a pyramid and it does not pretend to be one.
Rentals, pay-per-view, channel subscriptions and riffs are bought with credits — and those credits already paid you a commission when they were bought. They appear in your dashboard as activity, so you can see your people are actually using the place, and they earn nothing a second time.
Commissions clear a 45-day window against refunds and chargebacks before they can be withdrawn. New affiliates start on Bronze — a 90-day hold and a $500 minimum — and the tier ladder shortens both as you build a payout record. Every payout is released by a person, never automatically. Identity verification is required to withdraw, never to earn.

04 Questions
Is this just an affiliate link?
Mechanically, yes — and saying otherwise would be a dodge. What is different is what sits behind it. Most affiliate programs pay once, on one purchase. This one pays on plan subscriptions for as long as they renew, on household memberships for as long as they renew, and on the platform fee from money your people actually raise.
How much is this really worth?
Honestly: it depends entirely on whether your people work. A household membership is a couple of dollars a month to you. A plan subscription at 30% is the number worth caring about, and it repeats. A director who raises real money on the Film Fund pays you 20% of the platform's 5% fee — which is a meaningful sum on a large raise and a small one on a small raise. Anyone quoting you a monthly figure is guessing.
Do I have to sell anything?
No, and the program is worse at it if you try. The people who do well here point their network at a platform that solves a problem those people already have. The link does the rest.
What if my people just watch films?
Then you see the activity and earn nothing extra from it — rentals and channel subscriptions are paid for with credits, and the credits paid you when they were bought. That is the honest answer, and it is why this page leads with subscriptions and raises rather than viewing.
When do I actually get the money?
Commissions clear a 45-day window against refunds and chargebacks before they can be withdrawn. New affiliates start on Bronze — a 90-day hold and a $500 minimum — and the tier ladder shortens both as you build a payout record. Every payout is released by a person, never automatically. Identity verification is required to withdraw, never to earn.
Can my company do this rather than me personally?
Yes. Agencies, schools, festivals and production companies all run this at the organisation level, and the payout goes wherever the account is set up to send it.

The list is already in your phone.
You do not have to build an audience, make a film, or learn anything new. You have to give the people you already know a reason to be in one place. You will be asked to make an account first; you come straight back here afterwards.
