Track earnings & revenue sharing

Prerequisites

Before revenue share can be activated for your account, you'll need:

• An approved Allspice Partner account
• Your domain successfully linked + verified in the Partner Portal
• The Allspice widget live on supported recipe pages
• A signed partner agreement (includes your revenue share / commission terms)
• A payout method on file (configured during onboarding)

Ads & Monetization Compatibility

Allspice is designed to enhance your site monetization - not replace it.

Ads can continue to run normally

Because the Allspice widget does not require a full-page takeover, publishers can continue to run their existing ad setup while benefiting from higher session time.

Widget placement avoids common ad locations

Allspice is engineered to avoid blocking common ad placements, including:

• sticky bottom footer ads
• common floating video ad placements near the bottom of the viewport

Higher engagement time + stable ad delivery = increased revenue opportunity, even before revenue share is factored in.

Ads inside the Allspice widget

Allspice supports limited ad placements inside the widget today (such as footer-style and floating units).

Whether widget-based ads are enabled depends on:

• your ad provider setup
• compatibility requirements
• partnership agreements with ad platforms (when applicable)

If you're running Mediavine, Raptive, or other major providers, we can review widget ad compatibility during onboarding.

Grocery Delivery Revenue Share

Allspice also generates revenue through grocery delivery commissions when users build carts and place delivery orders via supported providers.

When grocery revenue is earned

Grocery delivery commissions are earned when:

1. a user adds ingredients from one or more recipes into a grocery list
2. the grocery list is sent to a grocery delivery partner (ex: Instacart)
3. the order is placed successfully

How grocery revenue is attributed to publishers

When a grocery order includes recipes from one or more Allspice partner sites, revenue share is distributed proportionally.

This is generally determined by which partner recipes contributed to the grocery list and order.

Example (simplified):

• A grocery order contains ingredients from 2 recipes on Site A
• and 2 recipes on Site B
• → grocery commerce revenue is split proportionally between Site A and Site B

Grocery commission rates

Commerce commission rates are based on Allspice's negotiated agreements with grocery delivery partners and may change over time.

Payout Timing & Reporting

When payouts happen

Partner payouts occur after Allspice receives funds from:

• grocery commerce partners
• other qualifying monetization partners

This means partner payouts are not instant and may follow standard payout delays common in partner and affiliate ecosystems.

Reporting and analytics

Partners can track performance inside the Partner Portal, including:

• engagement and usage trends
• recipe performance
• ingredient-level analytics

Revenue reporting is currently being expanded, and will include clearer breakdowns as it rolls out.

Upcoming Monetization Tools

Allspice is actively building more monetization options for publishers.

Ad-free subscription (publisher-configured)

We're working on an ad-free experience where users can pay a fee set by you (the publisher) to browse and cook on your site without ads.

This revenue split is expected to be significantly more favorable to publishers than traditional ad monetization.

Premium recipes and meal plans

We're also building tools for publishers to offer premium content through the Partner Portal, such as:

• premium recipes
• free or paid meal plans
• subscriber-only content experiences

These features are designed to let publishers monetize directly through Allspice without requiring a full membership rebuild on your site.
