How do they usually pay?
A realistic spread of monthly and annual billing across Pro and Max — about $26 a month per customer.
Launch offers discount the first year, and you earn 33% of what's actually collected — so year one pays 20% less. Year two is at full price.

Start earning this
Averages use current list prices across Pro and Max, with your first-year promo applied to year one only. Commission is 33% of every payment for as long as the customer stays subscribed — this projection counts the customers you said you’d refer, with no assumed drop-off.
How it works
Three steps, and you never send an invoice

Share your link
You get a tracked link plus creatives: screenshots, QR-card mockups, and copy you can paste into a proposal. First-click attribution and a 60-day cookie, so the partner who introduced them keeps the credit.

Who it’s for
If restaurants already trust you, this is the easy part
Restaurant marketing agencies
You manage 5–50 restaurant clients and their marketing calendar already.
Your play: put the whole roster on it. Thirty clients on Max is about $386 a month, arriving whether or not you ship anything that week.
Freelance web designers
You build restaurant sites, and the menu page is the part that never stops changing.
Your play: hand the owner a menu they can edit themselves. You stop doing unpaid updates and get paid every month instead.
POS & hospitality consultants
You're already selling technology into kitchens and front-of-house.
Your play: attach it to every install. It fits the same conversation as the terminal and adds a line that keeps paying after the hardware invoice clears.
Food creators
Bloggers, YouTubers and local Instagrammers whose audience is owners, GMs and staff.
Your play: one link under a review or a QR-menu tip. First-click attribution means the owner who bookmarks it and signs up in week eight still counts as yours.
MenuHoster customers
You run your own menu here, and you know every other owner on the street.
Your play: refer the place two doors down. You can show them your own live menu instead of explaining what it is.
Why it converts
A PDF goes in. A live menu comes out.
That’s the whole demo, and it takes about a minute in front of an owner. Everything below is a reason they stay subscribed — which is what pays you.
Import from a PDF or a photo
Nobody retypes 80 dishes. That single objection is why the demo lands.
Branded QR codes that print
Table codes and window cards from the same menu. Prices change, the code doesn't.
Zero-commission ordering
Delivery apps take 20–30% of every order. MenuHoster takes none. Owners do this math instantly.
Analytics owners actually check
Menu views and QR scans in plain numbers. Proof it works is what keeps the card on file.
A Free plan makes the first yes easy
No card, no meeting. You introduce it; the product does the closing.
Lifetime plans pay 33% in one go
One decision, one large commission, no waiting for it to accrue.

Handled by Lemon Squeezy
You’ll never chase an invoice
MenuHoster bills through Lemon Squeezy, and the affiliate program runs on their hosted Affiliate Hub. Your link lives there, every click and referral stage is tracked there, commission status is shown there, and payouts are sent from there.
- Tax forms (W-9 / W-8) are collected in your affiliate dashboard, not by email.
- Payouts are automatic once you clear $10. No invoices, no reminders.
- The ledger is independent of us, so the numbers aren't ours to argue with.
There is no separate MenuHoster affiliate login — one account, one dashboard.
