FAQ
What counts as a referral?
A specific person at a specific company, with their permission for us to reach out (or with you making the intro). Scraped lists do not qualify.
When do I get paid?
30 days after your referred client pays their first invoice. We pay on real revenue, not signed contracts.
How is the payout calculated?
Year-one collected revenue from the engagement, times your tier rate (10, 15, or 20 percent). A $30,000 build pays $3,000 at tier 1 or $4,500 at partner tier.
What if two partners refer the same prospect?
First submission wins. We notify the second referrer within 24 hours.
Are recurring engagements paid recurring commissions?
Year one only. Retainers and managed engagements pay out on the first 12 months of collected revenue, then commission ends.
