# How usecode.sh works alongside ShopMy

Last reviewed: 2026-08-13

Use both, and for a code-heavy creator ShopMy is the best possible partner: brands there can issue commissionable discount codes that pay you whenever the code is used, even with no click. What ShopMy does not give you is a code-first public surface; codes arrive in dashboards and DMs. A code page puts them where followers look, next to a card linking your ShopMy storefront.

## Why this pairing is unusually good

ShopMy's own brand-facing materials pitch commissionable codes precisely for TikTok-and-Reels-first creators, where links do not travel and the code is spoken. That is the same situation a code page is built for. With the pairing, the code earns through ShopMy's attribution while your page gives it a public home, a copy button, and a [copy count](/guides/code-copies-vs-link-clicks) that shows demand between payout reports.

1. Keep generating ShopMy links and accepting brand codes there; their tracking is what pays you.
2. Card each commissionable code on your page: brand, discount, code, and the brand link.
3. Give your ShopMy storefront its own permanent card for followers who want to browse everything.
4. Reconcile monthly: ShopMy's code-attributed earnings should trail your copy curve.

## Honest notes

- ShopMy has no published position on external bio pages; nothing in its docs forbids one, and storefront embeds suggest external placement is expected, but treat that as our reading rather than their statement.
- Commission mechanics have real caveats on ShopMy's side (reversals, attribution windows, missing orders); their creator guide covers these and nothing about a code page changes them.
- If ShopMy someday ships a code-first public page of its own, re-evaluate; this comparison is dated and reviewed for exactly that reason.
