Pay introducers the commission their referrals actually earned
Run an affiliate programme.
Part of growth in Gaffer, which replaces hoping for word of mouth.
Reviews, referrals, campaigns and tenders — the growth engine, built in.
Collect reviews after every job, run referral and affiliate schemes, send campaigns to the right customers, and find and write public-sector tenders with the bid library.
Repeat and referred work costs nothing to win. Gaffer goes and gets it.
Affiliates are one of the 10 things in growth. See the rest →
- A record per introducer with their own referral code, generated for you
- Commission set as a percentage or a fixed amount, separately for each affiliate
- Commission is worked out from the referral’s value the moment it is logged
- Referrals, conversions, conversion rate and total commission tracked per affiliate
- Payout details held on the record, so paying them is not a separate spreadsheet
Step 06 of the job: paid
The customer pays by card, Apple Pay or Direct Debit. Xero or QuickBooks are updated. A review request goes out. And eleven months later, the annual service reminder books the next job.
Growth is where affiliates sits, and that is the step it shows up in most. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →
What are affiliates for?

Do review requests annoy customers?
One message after a completed job, at a delay you set. Customers who are happy are pointed at your public review page and the ones who are not come to you first, which is the right way round.
What counts as a referral?
A link tied to a customer. When someone follows it and becomes a job, the referral is recorded against them along with whatever reward you chose to offer.
Which plan is it on?
Every paid plan. Affiliates is included for unlimited users at no extra cost — the monthly, annual and lifetime plans differ only in how you pay.
