Refer a tradie, earn a 15% referral fee

Know a tradie who would get value from custom AI? Share your unique link. If someone you refer becomes a paying client, you earn a 15% referral fee on the fees they pay us for their first engagement, paid to your bank account once that payment settles. There is no limit on how many people you can refer.

Quick answer

The TradieBuddy AI referral program pays you a 15% referral fee when a tradie you refer becomes a paying client. Create a unique link, share it, and get paid by bank transfer once the referred client's first payment settles. It is uncapped and open to individuals and businesses.

How it works

  1. Create your link. Enter your details below and we generate a unique referral link that is yours to share.
  2. Share it. Send it to tradies you know, or add it to your socials. When someone opens it and enquires, we know they came from you.
  3. They become a client. If a tradie you referred signs up and pays for their first engagement, you have earned a fee.
  4. Get paid. Once their payment settles and a short holding period passes, we pay your 15% by bank transfer. We ask for your bank details and a quick tax step at that point, not up front.

Common questions

Is there a limit on how many people I can refer?

No. The program is uncapped. You can refer as many tradies as you like, and you earn a fee for each one who becomes a paying client through your link.

How much do I earn, and how am I paid?

You earn 15% of the fees a referred client pays us for their first engagement, once that payment has settled. We pay by bank transfer (EFT) after a short 14-day holding period, which protects against refunds. Full detail is in the Referral Program Terms.

Do I need an ABN?

Not necessarily. If you refer as a private individual, you can complete a simple ATO Statement by a supplier so we can pay you without an ABN. If you refer as part of a business, you provide your ABN. Either way, you are responsible for your own tax. This is general information, not tax advice.

When exactly do I get paid?

After the tradie you referred becomes a client and pays us for their first engagement, that payment settles into our account, and the 14-day holding period passes. We then verify the referral and pay your fee to the bank account you provide at that point.
