Every thanks.io client gets a personal referral link. When someone signs up through it and becomes a paying customer, you earn commissions - settled as thanks.io credits, instantly and self-serve. Fully in-house, no affiliate network, nothing extra to join.
Already a client? Your link is waiting in the dashboard under Refer & Earn.
Three steps. No codes to remember, no forms for your referral to fill out.
Every thanks.io client gets a personal referral link at thanks.io/r/<your-code>. The landing page shows your first name - and your logo, brand color, and company name if you use Branding Builder. Nothing else about you.
Attribution is first-touch and written once at signup, so the first referral code a visitor carries is the one that counts. You don't need to chase anyone down or ask them to enter a code.
When your referral becomes a paying customer, commissions accrue to your balance. Convert them to thanks.io credits instantly from your dashboard and put them toward your next send.
Two ways to earn on every referral - a bonus when they go paid, and a share of everything they send after that.
Currently, when a referral upgrades to a paid plan, you earn their entire first subscription payment. Free signups earn nothing until they actually pay.
Yearly plans pay out one month of the equivalent monthly plan.
Currently, you earn 1% of every settled send order your referral places - postcards, letters, notecards, magnacards - for as long as they keep sending. Applied to the post-discount order total; gift card face value is excluded.
No cap, no expiry. Every order they place keeps paying you.
Rates reflect the program as it currently runs and may change. Your dashboard always shows the rates in effect for your account.
Publish one of your campaigns - a mailing list plus its automations - as a share link. Anyone who signs up through it gets a starter copy in their own account: your templates, your messages, and your automation setup, ready to review and switch on.
It's a ready-made recipe, not a live connection to your account. Great for coaches, brokers, agencies, and anyone who's built a play worth passing along.
What they never get
Earnings accrue as a balance you can see in your dashboard.
Convert your balance to thanks.io credits self-serve from the dashboard once you're above the $50 minimum. No waiting, no approval - your earnings go straight toward postcards, letters, and notecards.
No. Refer & Earn is built into thanks.io - there's no external affiliate network and no separate application. If you have a thanks.io account, you already have a referral link waiting in your dashboard under Refer & Earn.
Only your commission events - when a referral triggers a signup bonus or a send commission, and how much. You never see their account, their recipients, their orders, or any of their data.
Never. A shared campaign is a starter copy - templates, messages, and automation setup only. No recipients, no mailing list data, and nothing is active until they review and turn it on themselves. It's a ready-made recipe, not a live connection to your account.
Rates are set by thanks.io and can change. The figures on this page reflect the program as it currently runs; your dashboard always shows the rates in effect for your account.
Attribution is first-touch, written once at signup. Whichever referral code the visitor carried first is the one that gets credit.
Open Refer & Earn in your dashboard, copy your link, and start earning on every client you send our way.
