Hello!

We’re so happy you stopped by to learn about You Need A Budget’s (YNAB’s) Affiliate Program. Here’s how it works:

1. Apply

If you love YNAB, align with our mission, and have an audience (see requirements below) who could benefit from the Four Rules and YNAB method, we can’t wait to hear from you! To be a successful affiliate you must:

  • Believe in the life-changing powers of a budget.
  • Have an audience who can benefit from learning how to gain total control of their money.

2. Start Sharing
