How it works

From your first introduction to your first payment

Everything is recorded automatically and shown in your partner account. Here's exactly what happens, and the rules that decide it.

Join and confirm your email

Create your account at partners.sprintready.dev/portal/join. Confirm your email and you'll see your referral link (for example app.sprintready.dev/r/k7m2qd) and your six-character referral code. Add your bank details whenever you like; you only need them before your first payment.

Recommend SprintReady

There are three ways to make sure a company is credited to you. Use whichever suits the conversation:

  • Your link. It opens a page saying you recommended us, with sign-up buttons that carry your code into the form.
  • Your code. The company types it into the "Referral code" box on any sign-up form, including the Enterprise enquiry form.
  • An introduction. In your account, register the company and its website before it signs up. If it signs up within 180 days with an email address or website on that domain, it's yours, even without the link or code.

The company signs up

It appears in your account straight away as "Signed up". Most teams start with the free 30-credit trial. Nothing is owed yet, and your 12 months haven't started.

It starts paying

From its first payment, you earn 20% of everything it pays us, excluding VAT, for 12 months: credit packs, monthly Professional payments, Enterprise invoices, upgrades and top-ups. Each payment appears in your account with your commission next to it, and we email you when the first one arrives.

The quarter ends

The day after each quarter ends (31 March, 30 June, 30 September, 31 December), your payout is prepared for everything you earned up to then and emailed to you.

We pay you

By bank transfer in pounds within 30 days, with a statement listing every client payment it covers. If you're VAT registered, send us a VAT invoice for the amount and we pay the VAT on top.

An example year

A company you referred signs up in January, takes its free trial, and moves to Professional (£825 a month) on 10 February. Its 12 months run from 10 February to 9 February the following year: 12 monthly payments.

The rules that decide who gets the credit

  • A company is credited to one partner only, decided when it creates its account.
  • Your link or code comes first. If neither was used, the earliest open introduction for that company's domain wins.
  • An introduction lasts 180 days. A company that already has a SprintReady account can't be introduced.
  • If a company should have been credited to you but wasn't, email us. Where it's clear it came through you, we credit it by hand, and its earlier payments in the 12 months still count.

What doesn't count

  • Your own company, your employer, or yourself. Referrals like this are held and checked.
  • Free trial credits, and the Pre-Seed plan's free infrastructure: nothing is paid, so nothing is earned. Credit packs a Pre-Seed company buys do count.
  • VAT and other taxes on the client's invoice.
  • Payments after the 12 months end.

Refunds, currencies and corrections

Refunds. If we refund a client, the same share of your commission is taken back automatically. If it was already paid to you, it comes off your next payout.

Other currencies. Some clients pay in euros or dollars. Your commission is worked out on the pounds we actually received, at the rate our payment processor applied. Where that rate isn't available, we use an estimated rate and mark the line "estimated".

Small balances. If you've earned less than £50 by the end of a quarter, it carries forward until it's £50 or more.

Corrections. Occasionally we may add an adjustment, for example after a chargeback. It appears as its own line in your account and on your statement, with the reason.

Your account is the record. Everything above happens automatically and is visible to you as it happens. If anything in it looks wrong, email stu@sprintready.dev.
