Partner Programme

Partnering with us from outside the United States

The programme works the same wherever you are. This page covers the practical side for partners based outside the US: how you are paid, what paperwork there is, and what we ask of you.

How you get paid

A share of what they pay

You earn a percentage of the recurring subscription and retainer fees we actually receive from the customer you introduced. One time fees, taxes and refunds are not included.

Paid monthly, in US dollars

Commissions are calculated and paid in US dollars wherever you are. Currency conversion and any bank transfer fees come out of your side, so pick a payout method that suits your country.

Only what actually sticks

If a customer refunds or charges back, that commission is not earned. We would rather be straight about it than surprise you later.

The paperwork

1

The partner agreement. Sent after our call, once we both think it is a fit. It covers commission, tracking, how you can talk about us, and how either side ends it. You read it before you commit to anything.

2

One tax form. A short form certifying that you are not a US taxpayer, needed before your first payout rather than before you join. We send it to you and walk you through it. In the normal case no US tax is withheld from your commission.

3

Your tracking link. Issued once the agreement is signed, along with whatever materials you are approved to use.

If VAT or a similar tax applies to your services in your own country, that side is yours to handle and invoice in the normal way.

What we ask of you

Say plainly that you earn a commission when you recommend us. Put it near the link, before someone clicks, on every channel where you mention us, in the language your audience reads. Disclosure rules differ by country, so follow the ones that apply where your audience is, and we will help if you are unsure.

Beyond that: no bidding on our brand names in search ads, no claiming to work for us, no promising results we have not published, and no unsolicited email. The agreement sets it out in full, and none of it should surprise anyone who was going to recommend us honestly.

Common questions

Do I have to sell anything?

No. You introduce someone and we take the conversation from there. Most of our partners simply pass on a name or a link.

When do I need the tax form?

Before your first payout, not before you join. Nobody is asked for tax paperwork just to have a conversation with us.

Will US tax be taken out of my commission?

In the normal case, no. Your promotional work is done outside the United States, and the form you complete records that. If any withholding is ever required by law we will tell you and document it.

Which countries can join?

Most of them. There are a small number we cannot work with because of sanctions rules, and we will tell you straight away on the call if that applies.

How do I actually receive the money?

In US dollars, through the payout method you choose when you are set up. Available methods vary by country, so we will confirm what works for you before anything is due.

Is there a minimum, or any exclusivity?

Neither. Introduce people when it fits and do not when it does not.

Can I join if I am already a client?

Yes. You just cannot earn commission on your own accounts.

Book a call

Twenty minutes. We talk through who you work with and whether this is a fit. If it is not, we will say so on the call rather than leave you waiting.
