Do I get anything for it?** Yes, write to us and we will give you a link with a code in it; anyone creating an account through it is attributed to you. Once the company you referred has spent three consecutive months on a paid plan, we automatically credit you one monthly rate of their plan, at most one of your own. If you pay through Shopify yourself, there is no credit. The link looks like `…/register?ref=YOUR-CODE`. Anyone creating an account through it is attributed to you. The code does not have to be typed in; anyone without one simply registers as normal. ## If the link got lost If the company came another way, say the next day via the home page or through the Shopify app, let us know within 30 days of its sign-up and give us your code. We will then attribute it to you afterwards, once per company and with the same exclusions as at sign-up. After 30 days this is no longer possible, and a company already attributed to someone else stays there. While accounts can only be created with an invitation code, the invitation and your code go in the same link: `…/register?invite=INVITATION&ref=YOUR-CODE`. Both are read together. ## What is counted - Registered: an account was created. - Qualified: the referred company has spent three consecutive months on a paid plan. Only then is there a credit. Only the second figure means anything. The first could be produced by creating accounts, and a programme that pays for it gets exactly that. > **Note:** The credit is a balance on your customer account with the payment provider; it settles against your next invoice by itself. If you pay through Shopify yourself, we credit nothing: Shopify bills the plan on your Shopify invoice, and there is no balance there we could book. The referral still counts. The conditions in detail are under “What do I get for referring someone?”. ## Partner programme for agencies and consultants without a customer account If you are not a customer yourself but recommend Metrunio professionally, for instance as an SEO agency, a consultant or with a podcast, you receive a commission instead of the credit. It requires a partner agreement, and you are a business or self-employed. - 20 % of the paid net revenue in the first 12 months from the referred company’s first paid invoice, then 10 % up to month 36. - Calculated on the base price and overage, excluding VAT. If the company pays through a shop system such as Shopify, we first deduct the fee it actually retains; with Shopify, that includes the revenue share once our app’s lifetime revenue passes one million US dollars. Shopify’s statement arrives later, so we start with a provisional rate and reconcile against it each quarter. Any difference, either way, appears on the next credit note. - Settled each quarter by self-billed credit note, with no minimum amount. Refunds the customer is entitled to and chargebacks (a returned direct debit, for instance) are offset against the next credit note. If that leaves a negative amount, we carry it forward to the following one. A goodwill refund, or one because we failed to deliver, costs you no commission. - The agency plan is excluded, as are companies that already had a Metrunio account in the twelve months before registering. - If the partner agreement ends, even through termination on our side, commission on the customers you referred legitimately continues up to month 36. Only attributions based on a breach of the advertising rules are dropped. - If you suspect an error in a statement, you can ask for a review. You then receive a breakdown in which each customer appears only under a reference; we do not disclose names. You can get in touch through “Request a call” with the type “Become a partner” or directly on the /partners page of the website. > **Legal note:** Whether you have to disclose or pay tax on a credit for a referral depends on your country and your role. What appears on the invoice is binding. ## Also asked - Do you have a partner programme? - Do I get a commission? - How much is the partner commission? - How does the referral link work? - Are there terms for agencies? - Where do I see how many I referred? - Do I keep getting commission after termination? - What happens if my customer did not use the referral link? - Can a referral be attributed afterwards? - Does the referral link work together with an invitation code? ## Related - https://bench.metrunio.com/en/help/empfehlungen - https://bench.metrunio.com/en/help/support-erreichen - https://bench.metrunio.com/en/help/tarife - https://bench.metrunio.com/en/help/e-mails-und-newsletter
