BugHerd is a visual feedback and bug tracking tool designed to streamline communication between web development teams, agencies, and their clients. It operates as a transparent layer on top of live or staging websites, allowing users to point, click, and leave feedback directly on specific page elements. This process automatically captures essential technical metadata—such as browser version, operating system, and screen resolution—and attaches a screenshot to every task, eliminating the back-and-forth typical of traditional QA processes. The BugHerd Partner Program, hosted on the PartnerStack platform, offers a significant opportunity for agencies, freelancers, and publishers to generate recurring income. Partners earn a 20% commission on every transaction for the lifetime of a referred customer's subscription. This structure applies to both monthly and annual plans, providing long-term value as referrals grow or upgrade their accounts. For example, if a referred customer moves from a standard plan to a premium tier, the partner's monthly payout adjusts accordingly. To facilitate conversions, BugHerd provides a 90-day tracking cookie, which restarts if a lead clicks the affiliate link again. Furthermore, the program offers a built-in incentive for new sign-ups: referrals receive 20% off their first three months of BugHerd in addition to a standard 7-day free trial. Partners gain access to a dedicated dashboard to monitor clicks, sign-ups, and payouts, along with marketing materials and a partnership manager to assist with growth. Payments are typically verified and paid out through PayPal or Stripe the month following the earned commission.
