The more players you send who stay, the bigger your cut. Your tier moves itself. You never ask, and it never drops.
of every first payment · from your very first referral, where everyone starts
of every first payment · at 5+ paying referrals
of every first payment · at 25+ paying referrals
Auto-promotes the moment a referral's first payment lands. You're paid at your current tier, and every payment you've already earned stays counted. Your tier never drops back down.
An example: if 50 of your viewers buy the $9/month Oak plan, their first payments earn you $45 at Bronze (10%), or $90 once you're at Gold (20%). Commission is paid once per player, on their first payment, not every month.
Three steps between your channel and your first payout.
Apply below. We review new creators by hand, usually within a couple of days, and send you a personal code.
Your link is demo.treehost.online/YOURCODE. You also get an optional discount code your viewers can use at checkout.
When a referred player's first payment lands, your cut is added to your balance. Once it reaches your minimum, it's sent to your connected payout account.
Tree Host runs events that give creators a reason to film and give players a reason to watch. Join a season, enter a build battle, or collab with other Tree Host creators. All on servers we spin up for free.

Everything you're probably wondering before you apply.
No. We care that your audience plays Minecraft, not how large your channel is. Everyone starts at Bronze on their very first referral.
We review every application by hand, usually within a couple of days, and email you a personal code once you're accepted. Tree Host is pre-launch right now, so codes go out as we approve creators. Applying early means getting in line early.
Your balance updates the moment a referred player's first payment clears. You don't have to wait until the end of the month. Connect a payout account on your dashboard (PayPal, Stripe, bank transfer, Buy Me a Coffee, Ko-fi, Cash App, Venmo or a gift card) and pick your minimum, from $5 to $100. Once your balance reaches it, the payout is sent without you having to request it.
Anyone who signs up through your link and makes a first payment. Accounts that never pay don't count. If a first payment is later refunded, the commission is clawed back automatically, so your earnings always reflect genuine customers.
Yes. There's no exclusivity requirement. Please only recommend Tree Host where you think it fits.
Alongside your referral link you get an optional viewer discount code, something like YOURCODE10, for a percentage off your viewers' first payment. Anyone who signs up through your link gets it filled in at checkout automatically; others can type it in. It only ever applies to that first payment. You still earn commission on that payment, worked out on the price after the discount.
Enter your creator code to see your referrals and tier. Earnings are private. Sign in with your account to see them.
Codes are case-insensitive. Lost it? Email the team.
Your creator code was in the email from the Tree Host team when you were accepted. It's the same code that's at the end of your creator link.
They're tied to your account, not just the code: after looking up your code, log in with your own Tree Host account (the one you applied with) and your balance, paid-out total and recent activity appear on your dashboard. Payouts are sent to the account you connect there once your balance reaches your minimum. You don't have to request them.
Free to join. Reviewed by hand. Usually a response within a couple of days.
Minecraft content of any size. An SMP series, a modpack spotlight, a tutorial, a server list. We care that your audience actually plays, not how big the channel is. No follower minimums to start.
Commission is a cut of the first payment from each referred player. It lands in your Tree Host balance the moment their server goes live. Once your balance reaches your minimum, it's sent to the payout account you connected. If a first payment is refunded, the commission is clawed back automatically.
