Descript vs Submagic affiliate programs
Descript and Submagic are AI video tools that both run affiliate programs. Descript lists $25 commission for each new Descript subscriber that you refer through PartnerStack; Submagic lists 30% every month. One of the two does not state a cookie window, so the attribution windows cannot be compared. aifilliate records each program from a cited vendor source and does not rank the two.

What matches, what differs
Differences
- Payout structure differs: one-time against recurring.
In common
- Both are AI video tools.
What these terms mean in practice
A customer who stays subscribed for two years pays out on every qualifying renewal with Submagic, and once with Descript. Which produces more depends on plan price and retention, neither of which appears in published terms.
Which record fits which promoter
- Descript: suits single-conversion pushes — one payout per referral regardless of what the customer does later.
- Submagic: suits promoters building income on customer retention — qualifying renewals keep paying after the first sale.
What is not published
Anything below has to be confirmed with the vendor before either offer can be modelled. aifilliate records it as unknown rather than estimating it.
- Neither vendor publishes a cookie window.
- Descript does not publish a payout threshold.
- Submagic does not publish the platform running the program.
How to read these two records
These payouts do not share a basis — one is quoted as a percentage, the other as a flat amount per conversion. A percentage of an unknown plan price and a fixed bounty are not the same unit, so aifilliate does not rank them.
Descript pays one-time commission and Submagic pays recurring, which typically matters more than the headline rate over a customer's lifetime. One of the two does not state a cookie window, so the attribution windows cannot be compared.
aifilliate publishes no ranking between Descript and Submagic. Which program earns more depends on plan price, conversion rate, retention, and refund reversals in your own audience — none of which appear in published affiliate terms. Confirm eligibility, paid-search and trademark rules, and payout timing with each vendor before promoting either.
