How to join the GitKraken Ambassador Program in 2026
How to become a GitKraken Ambassador in 2026. What they ask, what you get, and how to apply on GitKraken's official site.
Apply on GitKraken's site
The GitKraken Ambassador Program is a contribution-first track for people who teach Git and GitKraken tools in public. Give and take. Apply on GitKraken's official pages.
I run Ambassador Directory. I am a Cursor ambassador and a Raycast ambassador. I am not a GitKraken Ambassador. The rule here is give and take: you share Git knowledge and create content, and you get GitKraken Advanced, swag, Slack, and a feature on their site. If the deal is a tracking link, it is the wrong program.
This page is a how-to. Apply on gitkraken.com/ambassador, not through this directory.
What they ask
Official framing: GitKraken super users who share knowledge and passion with developers. The page names professionals who use Git, superfans of GitKraken Desktop, GitLens, and Git Integration for Jira, and people who create articles, videos, and other technical content.
Official tiers: Content Creator (tutorials, videos, blog posts; 2+ pieces per quarter featuring or mentioning GitKraken). Influencer (post or feature GitKraken 2+ times a quarter on platforms like X, LinkedIn, YouTube, or Twitch). Community Ambassador (2+ reviews or helpful posts per quarter in places like Reddit, G2, and Quora).
The official requirements list: create 2 pieces of content per quarter; follow GitKraken brand guidelines and the code of conduct; display the GitKraken logo on your website and other online profiles; stay in touch and complete the quarterly check-in form.
The listing on this site asks for an active GitKraken user, content creation about Git, and community engagement.
I will not invent a follower count or an acceptance rate. Official copy names 2+ pieces per quarter. It does not name a follower threshold.
What you get
The exchange is support for the work, not a commission.
Official current page names the same core perks across the three tiers: GitKraken Advanced, exclusive swag, a feature on the site, Slack access, and monthly Git Togethers. The hero copy also names early access to features and releases.
Feature Tester is listed as early access to upcoming features and feedback before launches. Event Host is listed separately: if you host events with 30+ developers, they will send a swag pack for the day.
Older official blogs (2019 and 2021) named a free GitKraken Pro license. The current page says GitKraken Advanced. I will not invent whether those names are the same plan, or a dollar value.
The listing on this site tags Co-marketing and Access. Official copy does not publish a credit amount. I will not invent one.
- GitKraken Advanced
- Exclusive swag, plus a site feature

How to apply
Read the listing on this site so you know the ask and the perks. Then apply on GitKraken's official site. Do not send an application through Ambassador Directory. We list programs. We do not take applications for them.
Official hub: https://www.gitkraken.com/ambassador
The apply buttons on that page jump to the form on the same page at #apply-now. Use that published page. I will not invent a separate form URL.

Related Git and developer-tool programs
If GitKraken Ambassadors is the wrong fit, these live listings sit in a similar Git or developer-tools lane. Apply on that company's official page, not through this directory.
If you want the perk buckets, start there. If you want a general apply path, start with how to get in. GitHub Stars and Docker Captains are the other how-tos on this site for a similar community-expert lane.
