Promote the first-ever event to put Russell Brunson and Iman Gadzhi on the same virtual stage, and earn up to $1,032 per customer promoting the Monetise offer, with a $122,500 affiliate prize pool on top.
Side Hustle Summit 2026 is a free, fully virtual event running September 6-15, 2026, with five days of live training from September 7-11. It teaches everyday people how to launch a profitable online side hustle, and it marks the first time Russell Brunson and Iman Gadzhi have ever shared a stage.
For affiliates, the model is simple: you promote free registration. The event itself converts attendees into buyers of the $1,995 Monetise program and its $995 companion offer, and you get paid on every sale tracked to your link. Two of the best closers in the industry do the selling for you.
Searching for the Russell Brunson affiliate program or the Iman Gadzhi affiliate program? For 2026, they're the same thing, and this is it.
Founder, IAG Media · Creator of Monetise
One of the most-watched business creators on the planet, Iman Gadzhi built IAG Media, educated hundreds of thousands of young entrepreneurs, and created Monetise, the personal-brand monetization program that anchors this launch. His audience reach makes this one of the highest-converting offers of the year.
Co-founder, ClickFunnels
Author of DotCom Secrets, Expert Secrets and Traffic Secrets, Russell built ClickFunnels into a multi-hundred-million-dollar company and wrote the playbook for internet launches. His summit-style events have paid out millions to affiliates over the years, and this is his biggest affiliate opportunity of 2026.
Monetise is Iman Gadzhi's flagship program that teaches people how to build and monetize a personal brand: choosing a niche, creating content, growing an audience, and turning attention into income through affiliate marketing, sponsorships and consulting. It sells for $1,995, with a $995 companion offer presented during the summit.
That price point is exactly why the Monetise affiliate program pays so well: instead of chasing $20 commissions on low-ticket products, one summit attendee who buys the full stack can earn you up to $1,032 from a single free registration.
You promote free registrations. The summit converts them. You get paid on the whole funnel.
Send traffic to the summit opt-in page with your tracking link. Every registrant is cookied to you and counts toward the Opt-In Race.
During the live training, attendees are offered the Monetise program. You earn a commission on every sale attributed to your link.
A $995 companion offer and additional upsells stack your earnings to up to $1,032 per customer.

The Side Hustle Summit Affiliate Program is the official partner program for Side Hustle Summit 2026, the virtual event hosted by Russell Brunson (co-founder of ClickFunnels) and Iman Gadzhi (founder of IAG Media and creator of Monetise). Affiliates promote free registration to the summit and earn commissions of up to $1,032 per customer when attendees purchase the Monetise core offer and its companion upsells during the September 6-15, 2026 sales window.
Affiliates earn up to $1,032 per customer across the full funnel: the $1,995 Monetise core offer, a $995 companion offer, and additional upsells. On top of per-sale commissions, there is a $122,500 prize pool split across two contests you can enter and win at the same time: an Opt-In Race ($15,000 for 1st place and $5,000 for 2nd) and a Sales Leaderboard paying the top five sellers $50,000, $25,000, $15,000, $10,000 and $7,500.
