Information for new Cuttle Creators
Quick onboarding checklist for new Creators
Congratulations on joining Cuttle Creators!
1. On your Account Settings page, make sure your profile settings are to your liking
- Your Profile Picture and Display Name will show up on all of your templates. You can change these any time.
- Your Username (e.g. @toby) will appear in the URLs for your profile page and your templates. You can change this later but then any older links to your profile page will not work. So it’s best to pick something you like and don’t change this!
2. Introduce yourself on the Facebook Group (Optional)
We encourage you to introduce yourself in the Cuttle Facebook Group so folks can get to know your work. Feel free to post a link to your Cuttle Profile, some sample pictures and use the hashtag #CuttleCreators.
You can put your own spin on it, but for reference see these introduction posts by Alisha, Audrey and Bonnie.
3. Join Cuttle’s affiliate program (Optional)
This lets you earn 25% recurring commissions for every new customer that you refer to Cuttle Pro. This is on top of royalties earned for downloads.
- Do share your Cuttle affiliate links (the URLs ending in
?via=YOURCODE) and associated promo codes in places outside of Cuttle — on your Instagram, YouTube, other Facebook groups where you’re allowed to share links, email newsletter, direct contacts, etc. - Don’t share these links or promo codes within Cuttle’s platform — Read Me’s or on the official Cuttle Facebook Group or Discord
Tip: You can link to any page on Cuttle (not just the homepage) with your affiliate tag by adding ?via=YOURCODE to the end of any Cuttle URL.
How to publish your templates as Pro
When you’re ready to publish a Pro template,
- In the project’s Read Me, set the License to Pro. This will gate your project so that only Pro users will be able to download or edit it.
- In the Share menu, set your project to Public or Unlisted so people can access it.
We recommend setting the Share status to Public so that people can find it on your profile page and in the Cuttle Creators Templates section. But you can also use Unlisted, for example if you’re sending the template to test users before releasing it more widely.
Sharing Guidelines
Feel free to share your new template(s) on the Cuttle Facebook Group.
- Tag your post with #CuttleCreators so that people understand it’s part of the Cuttle Creators program.
- Limit your #CuttleCreators posts to once per day.
- We recommend including a photo or video with your post so that Facebook shows it to more people.
- Do not use your Cuttle affiliate link (URLs ending in
?via=…) in Cuttle’s Facebook Group. These are intended for use external to Cuttle’s platform. You can use Cuttle affiliate links in other Facebook groups where you have permission to post links.
