Learn how to earn account credits by referring friends and colleagues to Equipoise, including how to share your code and track your rewards.

How the Referral Program Works

Love Equipoise? Share it with others and earn credits! Our referral program rewards you when friends sign up using your unique code.

How It Works

The referral program is simple:

  1. You share your unique referral code with friends
  2. They sign up using your code
  3. They subscribe to a paid plan
  4. You earn credits toward your own subscription

What You Earn

When a referral subscribes to a paid plan:

Plan They Choose You Earn
Growth $5 credit
Professional $15 credit
Organization $30 credit

Credits are applied to your subscription or can be used toward future bills.

Note: Credit amounts may vary. Check your Referrals page for current earnings.

When Credits Are Applied

Credits follow this timeline:

  1. Referral signs up: Appears as "Pending"
  2. They start paid plan: Still "Pending" for 30 days
  3. After 30 days: Credit moves to "Earned"
  4. Next billing cycle: Credit applied to your bill

The 30-day waiting period ensures the referral is a genuine customer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I refer someone who already has an account?

No, referral codes only work for new accounts. The code must be used during signup.

What if my referral forgets to use my code?

Unfortunately, codes can't be applied after account creation. Make sure they enter your code during signup.

Can I refer my own business?

No, self-referrals aren't allowed. Referrals must be for separate individuals or organizations you don't control.

Do credits expire?

No, earned credits never expire. Pending credits may expire if the referral doesn't convert to a paid plan.

Can I cash out my credits?

Credits can only be used toward Equipoise subscriptions. They cannot be converted to cash.

Tips for Successful Referrals

  1. Be specific: Explain how Equipoise helps you
  2. Target the right people: Those who'd genuinely benefit
  3. Follow up: Offer to help them get started
  4. Time it right: Share when they're actively looking for solutions
  5. Be patient: Not everyone signs up immediately
