If you talk to homeschool families โ a blog, an Instagram, a Facebook group, a YouTube channel, a podcast โ the Lumi Creator program gives you a personal referral code and pays you commission on the sales it brings in. You control your own content and your own schedule; we handle the code, the tracking, and the payout.
Apply to Become a Creator โYou apply with your name, contact info, where you post, and how you'd plan to share Lumi. Applications are reviewed individually. If you're approved, you're given a personal referral code and told your commission rate in writing at that time. When someone enters your code before subscribing and their payment actually settles, that sale is attributed to you and commission is calculated on the amount Lumi actually collects โ never on list price, and never on a sale that gets refunded or charged back.
Once approved, your code is unique to you. It gets attached to a buyer's account when they enter it, and stays attached until they actually purchase โ so attribution isn't lost even if someone takes a few days to decide.
Lumi doesn't publish one fixed commission percentage for every Creator. Your rate is communicated to you directly when your code is issued, and it's calculated on the gross amount actually charged on a qualifying sale (after any discounts, before payment-processing fees), never on the sticker price. Any fee Venmo or Cash App charges on your side is yours.
Sales become payable after a 30-day waiting period. Payouts go out twice a month, on the 1st and the 16th, to the Cash App or Venmo handle you provide. Balances under $25 carry forward to the next payout cycle rather than being sent as a small amount.
Creators are 1099 independent contractors โ you set your own schedule, choose your own content, and use your own accounts and equipment. There's no shift, no quota, and no requirement to post a set amount.
The application at lumi-academy.org/creator-apply asks for your name and email, how you'd like to be paid (Venmo or Cash App) and your handle, at least one real link to where you post so it can actually be reviewed, and basic tax details required to eventually issue a 1099-NEC โ your legal name, entity type, and mailing address. It deliberately does not ask for a Social Security Number or EIN on the form itself; if you're approved and nearing the reporting threshold, that's collected separately through a secure W-9. You'll hear back by email either way.
Tell us where you post and how you'd share Lumi โ we read every application.
