ShopWired's referral system
Every ShopWired account holder can use the ShopWired referrals programme to earn commission for referring new customers.
- If someone uses your referral link to sign up for a ShopWired account, you will earn commission each time that referred customer makes a subscription payment to ShopWired
- Commission payments are earned for the lifetime of the referred ShopWired account
- ShopWired pays a commission of 15% on the net value (without VAT/tax) of the subscription payments made
- Referral commission payments are not made for app charges or one-off charges paid by customers you refer
- ShopWired's referrals programme is governed by the partner terms and conditions

When a visitor to the ShopWired website uses your referral link, a cookie will be placed on their computer to track their behaviour on our website. As soon as they sign up for an account, the cookie will be activated, and a record will be made on your ShopWired account that you referred them.
Email notifications are not sent when customers create free trial accounts or sign up for paid accounts.

Each time your account is credited with referral commission resulting from the renewal of a subscription payment, an entry will appear in the Referral earnings statement table. An entry will also appear when commission is paid out to you.
