Founding-member launch · August 1, 2026

The launch needs partners.
Pick your lane.

On August 1 we open 200 founding seats: $299/yr, 0% platform fees locked for life. Three ways to be part of it — promote it, test it, or run it for your clients. Everything you need is on this page.

1 · Launch affiliates

Promote the founding-member launch. Keep half.

You know this play — it's the one we all grew up on. A real product, a real deadline, real scarcity (the honest kind — more on that below), and a 50% commission. If your list buys tools that make them money, this is a clean fit.

50% commission on every founding-member sale.

The offer your audience sees: $299/yr, 0% platform fees locked for life, 200 seats only. After the 200, pricing goes to $79/mo + 0.5% or free + 3% — so the founding seat sells itself to anyone who sells online.

Your rate is locked at the moment of each purchase. Commissions sit in a 30-day refund holdback, then flip to due and get paid.

Your tracking runs on gocushy's own affiliate engine.

We dogfood. Your link is a gocushy ?via= link, tracked by the exact same system every gocushy merchant gets. You've been burned by launch tracking before — here's why this one is different.

Affiliate tracking you've suffered through

  • Pixels and cookies that silently drop sales
  • Clawbacks that somehow exceed what you earned
  • Stats you can't see until payout day
  • Terms that shift mid-launch

The gocushy engine

  • Server-side attribution — the sale is recorded on our servers, no pixel flakiness
  • Automatic refund clawbacks — and you can never be clawed back more than you earned
  • Your rate locked at the instant of purchase
  • 30-day holdback, then due, then marked paid — visible the whole way
  • Self-referral blocked, so the numbers stay clean
Disclosure isn't optional (FTC & local equivalents). If you promote gocushy through your link, you must clearly and conspicuously disclose the affiliate relationship — in every email and every post, before the link ("I earn a commission if you buy through this link", "#ad" on social). Keep every claim to what the product actually does; the swipe below is written to be accurate as shipped. No income claims, no invented scarcity — the 200-seat cap is real, and gocushy's own checkout countdowns literally cannot fake-reset. We hold you to the standard we build to.

Email #1 — the story (announce / warm-up)
SUBJECT: Your AI can build a page. Can it take money?

Hey [FIRST NAME] —

Quick question: have you noticed AI can build you a beautiful
landing page in about 60 seconds now — and then you spend three
days wiring up Stripe, your autoresponder, and a bump/upsell
flow before it makes a dollar?

That gap is the whole game now. AI made pages free. It did NOT
make selling free.

Sam Bakker (you may know him from [HOW YOU KNOW SAM / the launch
world]) just built gocushy to close it. You type one sentence to
Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor:

    "Set up a checkout for my $49 course. Add the $17 workbook
    as an order bump, offer my $197 coaching session as a
    one-click upsell, and tag buyers in Mailchimp."

...and seconds later you have a live checkout link. Money lands
in YOUR Stripe account — gocushy never holds your funds. Buyers
get tagged and sequenced in your email platform. Order bumps
(typically +20–40% order value) and one-click upsells are built
in, not bolted on.

Doors open August 1. The founding-member deal — 200 seats, then
it's gone: $299/year, 0% platform fees locked for life. After
that it's $79/mo + 0.5%, or free + 3%.

I'll send the link the moment the cart opens.

P.S. Disclosure: I'm a gocushy launch partner and earn a
commission if you buy through my link. Costs you nothing extra.
Email #2 — doors open (cart-open day)
SUBJECT: Founding member doors are open (200 seats)

It's live.

gocushy — the checkout layer your AI can actually operate —
opened founding-member doors this morning.

THE DEAL: $299/year. 0% platform fees, locked for life. You only
ever pay Stripe's standard processing, on your own Stripe
account. When the 200 seats are gone, pricing goes to $79/mo +
0.5% per sale, or free + 3%. If you sell anything online, the
founding seat pays for itself.

WHAT YOU GET TODAY — all live, nothing "coming soon":

- Hosted checkouts that load in under a second (cards, wallets,
  Link, BNPL per your Stripe settings)
- Order bumps (+20–40% order value) and one-click post-purchase
  upsells on every one-time offer
- Subscriptions billed on your own Stripe
- Real tax: Stripe Tax on YOUR registrations, EU reverse charge,
  NZ/AU GST — plus compliant, sequential invoices
- Xero auto-filing on every paid order
- Email follow-up: buyers tagged & sequenced in Kit, Mailchimp,
  or ActiveCampaign
- A built-in affiliate engine with server-side tracking
- 22 agent tools, so Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor runs all of it
  from a conversation — plus a normal dashboard if you'd rather
  click

One detail worth knowing: the checkout you'll buy through runs
on gocushy itself. They eat their own cooking.

Stripe's MCP gives your agent a payment link.

gocushy gives it a funnel.

Order bumps, one-click upsells, email follow-up — on your own Stripe, run by your AI in one conversation.

I typed one sentence into Claude and got back a live checkout with an order bump, a one-click upsell, and buyers auto-tagged in Mailchimp.

Money straight into my own Stripe. No page builder, no webhooks, no Zapier spaghetti.

AI made landing pages free. It did not make selling free.

Checkout, order bumps, upsells, tax, invoices, email follow-up, affiliate tracking — that's still plumbing, and until now nobody's AI could do plumbing.

gocushy is the sales machinery layer agents operate: 22 tools your AI uses to create offers, wire follow-up, read sales data, and iterate — with money landing in your own Stripe account. gocushy never holds your funds.

It launches August 1 with 200 founding seats: $299/yr and 0% platform fees locked for life.

Scarcity you can actually trust:

gocushy checkout countdowns hide at zero and can't fake-reset. Structurally impossible. Pricing is server-side, so an agent can't ship a broken or mispriced checkout.

Honest urgency, enforced by code. That's what checkout for the agent era should look like.

ThriveCart and SamCart: real funnel mechanics, zero agent story.

Stripe payment links: agent-friendly, zero funnel mechanics.

gocushy is both — bumps, upsells, follow-up, affiliates — operated by your AI, paid into your own Stripe.

Doors open Aug 1. 200 founding seats, $299/yr, 0% fees for life.

The "what is gocushy" blurb — paste anywhere
gocushy is the agentic sales bridge: plug your business in once,
and any AI — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or your own agents — can
run your sales on your own Stripe. Hosted checkouts with order
bumps and one-click upsells, subscriptions, real tax and
compliant invoices, Xero auto-filing, email follow-up into Kit /
Mailchimp / ActiveCampaign, webhooks, and a built-in affiliate
engine — all operable through 22 agent tools or a REST API. It's
not a page builder (AI made pages free) and not a merchant of
record: your money and your customers stay yours, and gocushy
never holds your funds. The founding-member launch opens
August 1 — $299/yr with 0% platform fees locked for life,
limited to 200 seats. [YOUR AFFILIATE LINK]

Sell something real through it before launch. Pay nothing.

We want a small group of working sellers — course creators, coaches, direct-response operators — running real offers with real buyers through gocushy before and during launch week. In exchange for your feedback, you get a founding account free. This is deliberately small: think twenty seats, not two hundred.

What you get

  • A founding account, free — the $299/yr seat, waived
  • 0% platform fees locked for life (you only pay Stripe's standard rate)
  • A direct line to Sam — reply, DM, voice note, whatever's easy
  • Roadmap influence: your rough edges become next week's fixes

What we ask

  • Run at least one real offer through it in your first week
  • Tell us every rough edge — that's literally why you're here first
  • A testimonial or case study if (and only if) the product earns one

Setup is ~10 minutes

Sign up, connect your own Stripe, plug your AI in via MCP, then say "set up a checkout for my $X product with my $X add-on as a bump." It hands you a live link. That's the whole onboarding.

Email Sam for a seat

Tell Sam what you sell and roughly how many buyers a month. Sellers with live offers go to the front.


3 · Agencies

Your AI, operating every client's sales machinery.

If you build funnels, offers, or automations for clients, gocushy changes your unit economics: describe the client's offer to your AI and it wires the whole machine — checkout, bump, upsell, email follow-up, affiliate links, webhooks — then reads the numbers back to you.

$

Clean money separation

Each client connects their own Stripe account. Their revenue goes straight to them — it never routes through you, and gocushy never holds funds. No commingling, no liability headaches, no awkward payout conversations.

One AI, every client

22 agent tools plus a full REST API per account: create offers, set bumps and upsells, connect the client's Kit / Mailchimp / ActiveCampaign, pull stats, export accounting-grade CSVs, handle refunds. Embed the checkout on any client site — Lovable, WordPress, hand-coded — with one script tag.

Agency tier: on the roadmap

A dedicated multi-client agency tier is on the roadmap — it isn't shipped yet. Agencies who talk to us now get to shape it, and can run clients as individual accounts today.

Email Sam to talk agencies

Mention how many clients you run and what stack they're on today.

One inbox. No forms. Doors open August 1.

Every partner conversation starts the same way: an email to Sam. Subject line's already filled in — just say who you are and which lane you're in.
