Show learners how you use Test Routes Expert. Share your code. Earn a share when they buy.
Josh is the driving instructor behind Test Routes Expert, and this is his own reel. The £400 is total sales from this one video: what learners paid. At 30%, a creator’s share of it would be about £85. Results vary from video to video.
What you get
30% of every payment
Your share of what we make from each payment a viewer makes, after VAT and app-store fees. Renewals count too, for 12 months from the day they use your code.
What your viewers get
Viewers who enter your code in the app get 5 free practice routes at their test centre. Once we switch on the Learner Discount, viewers who use your code before they buy get 20% off their first purchase. We’ll email you when it’s on.
Paid monthly
Each payment clears after a 30-day refund window. Then we pay you by bank transfer every month, once you’re owed £20 or more. Your private dashboard shows your numbers as they come in.
Worked example
What you’d earn
A viewer buys Lifetime for £29.99.
you earn £6.37
A viewer pays £12.99 a month for 3 months.
you earn £8.28
How we work it out: the price ÷ 1.2 to take off VAT, × 0.85 for the app-store fee, then you get 30% of what’s left, rounded down to the penny for each payment. So a £29.99 payment earns you £6.37, and each £12.99 month earns you £2.76. These are full prices. Once we switch the Learner Discount on, you earn your share of the discounted price.

The short version of the rules
What you can say
Label it as an ad
Put “Ad” at the start of the title or on the thumbnail, say it at the start of the video, and use YouTube’s paid-promotion box or the platform’s paid-partnership label. A mention in the description, or just your code or link, isn’t enough.
Say what the code gets today
Until we tell you the discount is live, say your code gets 5 free practice routes.
Call them practice routes
Our routes are practice routes. Don’t call them official DVSA test routes.
No coupon or voucher sites
Share your code with your own audience, not on coupon, voucher or cashback sites.
No paid search on our brand
Don’t bid on Test Routes Expert or Driving Test Expert in search ads.
No misleading claims
Don’t promise a pass, and only say what the app really does.
The full rules are in the creator programme terms.
Questions
Who can join?
UK creators aged 18 or over who teach or document learning to drive on YouTube, TikTok or Instagram. We approve each creator ourselves, so we may say no if it isn’t a good fit.
How do you know a learner came from me?
Your viewers enter your code in the app, or install on Android from your link, which adds your code for them. The first code a learner ever uses is the one that counts. They need to be learners who haven’t bought in the app before: a purchase made up to 7 days before they use your code still counts, but not one from earlier.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. On Android, installing from your link adds your code for them. On iPhone, or if they already have the app, they go to Settings → “Have an instructor code?” in the app and enter it. Creator codes go in there too.
What doesn’t count?
Free trials, Family Sharing, refunded or charged-back payments, payments in currencies other than pounds, purchases by you or your household, payments while your account is suspended, and learners who first bought more than 7 days before using your code.
When do I get paid?
Each payment is held for 30 days in case it’s refunded. After that it’s owed to you, and we pay by bank transfer every month once you’re owed £20 or more. Anything less carries over to the next month. Each payout comes with a statement, and if you’re VAT-registered you send us a VAT invoice.
What if the programme changes, or I stop?
We give you 30 days’ notice by email before we change the programme for future payments, and learners you’ve already referred keep earning you commission on the terms in force when you referred them. Either of us can end it at any time by email. We keep paying commission on learners you’ve already referred for the rest of their 12 months, except any commission earned by breaking the rules, and we pay your final balance even if it’s under £20.
Is there a cost?
No. It’s free to join and there’s nothing to buy.
