Earn money with the referral program

How it works

1. Open Referral in Bearing. Under What you can share, copy your address, a ready-made link (for a newsletter or a site that accepts HTML), or the “Stats by Bearing” badge for your footer.
2. Share it: a newsletter, a post, a recommendation to a client, your site's footer.
3. Whoever signs up through it becomes your referral. Each time they pay, 25% of the payment is yours.

There is no cookie: your code travels in the link (?via=) up to sign-up. The person must sign up from the visit that started with your link.

The same page shows your earnings month by month and your referred customers. They stay anonymous: you see when they joined and whether they are trying Bearing, paying or stopped, never their name or email. Your AI can read all of it too (tool get_referral).

Payouts

• Each commission waits 30 days before it can be paid, in case of a refund.
• On the 1st of each month, everything past its wait is paid to your bank account through Stripe, from €20; below that, it carries over.
• Set up payouts once on the Referral page: Stripe checks your identity and bank details, Bearing never sees them.

Commissions are income: declare them according to the rules of your country.

Why a quarter

We share each subscription in four parts:

• A quarter for you, who talk about Bearing: exactly 25%, for life.
• About a quarter for Bearing's costs, fixed and variable: servers, database, payment, emails, tools.
• About a quarter to improve it: the time spent building it and making it grow.
• About a quarter for its maker: his income, social charges included.

Only your part is fixed. The other three are envelopes: when one costs less, the difference goes to improving Bearing.

The rules

• Commissions last as long as the customer pays and your account exists.
• Referring yourself does not count.
• The program may change for future referrals, never for the customers you already brought.
