Maker Program

Requires Pro Lite or higher

Are you a designer? Join the Maker Program and sell your custom templates directly to other Carrd users. Simply set your price, share your buy links with prospective buyers, and Carrd will handle the rest. You'll earn 70% on each sale, and – as with our referral program – earnings can be used to pay for plan upgrades, purchase library items, or simply requested as a payout. The program is free, opt-in, and open to all users on Pro Lite or higher.

Selling a Template

If you have a template you'd like to make available for purchase, here's how to do it:

  1. Open the Dashboard.

  2. Click the Sites tab.

  3. Locate the template you want to make available for purchase, then click its Manage icon.

  4. In the sidebar, click Template.

  5. Under Access, check the Paid radio button.

  6. Click Save Changes to convert this template to Paid access.

  7. Enter this template's Price. You can also check the Allow "pay what you want" pricing option if you want to treat this as a minimum price instead.

  8. (Optional) Provide a brief Description for this template.

  9. (Optional) Assign one or more Tags to this template (eg. "profile").

  10. Click Save Changes

  11. You're done! Users can now visit this template's buy link to purchase and add it to their library. If you're a member of our referral program, passing through this buy link will also activate your referral code.

    Purchasing a template only gives users the ability to select it as a starting point for new sites. The template itself will continue to remain on your account.

Leaving the Maker Program

If you want to leave the maker program, simply follow these steps:

  1. Open the Dashboard.

  7. You're done! Any templates you've made available for purchase will be reverted to Private access, but those that have already been purchased will remain accessible to those who've purchased them. All maker program earnings that have yet to be spent or paid out will remain in your balance for future use.
