Refer businesses, friends or family to the service. You earn a commission on every invoice they pay, and they get a lifetime discount on all their monthly invoices. Manage everything in **Billing** › **Referrals**.

## How it works

- Your **Commission rate** is shown under **My earnings**, and your referral's discount next to **Invite a referral** (**Referral's discount**).
- Commission is paid into your account balance for every invoice your referral pays.
- Payouts of your earnings follow the Referral Terms and Conditions, linked from the page.

## Invite someone

1. Go to **Billing** › **Referrals**.
2. Under **Invite a referral**, choose how to invite them.

| Option | Use it when | What happens |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Invite a new referral** | They don't have an account yet. | Enter their email. They get an invitation link to sign up for a 30-day trial. |
| **Send referral request** | They've already signed up without your invitation. | Enter the email they signed up with. They confirm the request by email. This only works within 30 days of their account being created. |
| **Download QR code** | You want to add it to flyers or other material. | A PNG image downloads. Scanning it opens the sign-up page for a 30-day trial. |
| **Copy referral link** | You want to share a link. | Click the copy button next to your referral link and share it. It opens the sign-up page for a 30-day trial. |

## Check it works

A referral appears in **My referrals** once their account is active and verified, or once they confirm your referral request. The list shows each **Referral**, your **Commission** and its **Approval** status, such as **Requested**, **Approved**, **Rejected** or **Expired**.

## See your earnings

- **My earnings** shows **Last month's earnings** and your **Commission rate**.
- **Earnings** lists each commission with its **Date**, **Description**, **Referral** and **Amount**. Choose the period with the date range, and use **Group by** to group the list.
