The referral program lets you earn recurring commissions when people you refer subscribe to Exayard. You get a unique referral link and can create a coupon code -- both track referrals and earn you commissions.
Finding your referral page
Open Settings and click Referrals in the sidebar. Your affiliate account is created automatically the first time you visit this page. Once enrolled, you'll see your referral link, stats, and earnings all in one place.
Sharing your referral link
Your referral link appears at the top of the page in the format https://exayard.com?ref=yourcode. Click the copy button next to the link to copy it to your clipboard, then share it anywhere -- social media, email, blog posts, or direct messages.
To customize your referral code, click the pencil icon next to the link. Enter a new code between 3 and 32 characters and click Save. Codes are lowercase and can contain letters, numbers, and hyphens.
Creating a coupon code
Below your referral link you can create a personal coupon code. Enter an alphanumeric code (for example, BLAKE10) and click Create. The coupon gives the person who uses it 10% off their first 3 months, and you earn a 20% commission on their subscription payments.
You can change your coupon code up to 3 times by clicking the pencil icon. After that the edit button disappears, though you can contact support for further changes.
Commission structure
The standard commission rate is 20% on referred subscriptions, paid for 12 months from the referral date. Commission applies to each invoice your referral pays. The Recent commissions table on the referrals page shows each commission with its date, invoice amount, your commission amount, and status (pending, approved, or paid).
Tracking referrals
Six stat cards show your referral performance at a glance:
Stat | What it tracks |
Clicks | Number of times someone clicked your referral link |
Signups | Users who created an account through your link or coupon |
Conversions | Referred users who subscribed to a paid plan |
Total earned | Lifetime commissions earned |
Pending | Commissions earned but not yet paid out |
Total paid | Commissions already paid to you |
Earnings calculator
The Earnings calculator section lets you estimate potential earnings. Adjust the slider to set how many referrals subscribe, and toggle between the Starter ($99/mo) and Professional ($249/mo) plans to see projected monthly and yearly earnings.
Payout settings
Commissions are paid monthly via PayPal once your balance reaches $100. Enter your PayPal email address in the Payout settings section and click Save. Payments are processed automatically each month when the minimum balance is met.
Program terms
Referred accounts must stay active for at least 7 days. Self-referrals and promotion through coupon or cashback sites are not allowed.
