How to earn more from crypto app users without raising fees

Short answer: a crypto wallet, card or exchanger can earn more per user without touching fees by adding a gift after a successful operation — a top-up, a swap or a card issue. Users pick trials and discounts from VPN, hosting, AI and other digital services, and you earn a CPA payout for every confirmed action. Processing and KYC stay untouched, and the integration takes about an hour.

Key takeaways

  • Fee and spread competition keeps squeezing revenue per operation.
  • The success screen after a top-up or swap is attention you already pay for.
  • Crypto users buy digital services abroad: VPN, hosting, eSIM, AI tools.
  • Hosting offers alone pay $54 per confirmed action with current terms.
  • No personal data leaves your product: only a partner ID and a click ID.

Why fees alone are not enough

Crypto products earn on spreads, top-up and withdrawal fees, exchange margins and card interchange. All of these depend on the price you charge for each operation, and aggregators show users the cheapest option first. Raising fees usually costs volume. The alternative is to monetize the attention after the operation — when the user is satisfied and not in a hurry.

Which crypto products fit

What crypto users actually want as a gift

Crypto users travel, pay for services abroad and care about privacy. The gifts they choose most are VPN discounts, hosting and VPS credits, AI tool trials, eSIM data and language learning. That is why hosting and VPN offers — the ones with the highest payouts — fit this audience especially well.

Which offers are live and how much you earn per action

These are offers that are live on getbonus right now. The last column is your share — half of what the advertiser pays for one confirmed action. For offers paid as a percentage of the sale it is a range from the cheapest to the most expensive plan.

More programs are being connected — VPN and security tools, AI services, online courses, games with new-player bonuses — so the gift set grows every week. Gifts are always filtered by the user’s country.

How much you can earn: a worked example

Formula: operations per month × share of users who open the gifts × share who complete a confirmed action × your average payout per action. With the current offer mix the average payout to a partner is about $8 per confirmed action.

Illustrative example for 50,000 operations a month. It is a planning model, not a forecast: real rates depend on your audience, countries and placement.

How to launch in about an hour

  1. Leave a request on the contact page. We create your partner account and send access to the partner cabinet.
  2. Choose the moment: a success screen, a confirmation email, a reward screen or a bot message.
  3. Paste one widget snippet, or add a link or an inline button with your partner ID — usually 10–15 minutes of work.
  4. In the cabinet, preview your widget and switch off offers that do not suit your audience.
  5. Make a test click — it appears in the cabinet right away — and go live.

No SDK, no backend changes and no personal data: the link carries only your partner ID and a technical click ID. Most partners go live within about an hour of getting access, and the first clicks are visible the same day.

Frequently asked questions

How can a crypto exchange earn more without raising fees?

By monetizing the moment after a successful exchange with optional gifts from digital services. You earn per confirmed action while rates and fees stay the same.

Does it work for a Telegram-only exchanger?

Yes. An inline button in the bot’s confirmation message opens the gift page inside Telegram.

Can gifts increase card spending?

Often yes: many gifts are paid digital services, and users pay for them with the card they just topped up.

Is customer data shared?

No. Only a partner ID and a technical click ID are passed in the link.

How quickly can we start earning?

Integration takes about an hour after you get access to the partner cabinet. Clicks show up immediately; confirmed actions and payouts follow after the advertiser’s validation period, usually from a few days to several weeks.

What does it cost?

Nothing. There is no setup fee or subscription. getbonus shares the advertiser’s payout with you — by default you receive half of it for every confirmed action.
