How it works
Three steps from application to payout
Apply and get approved
Tell us about your platform and audience. We review within 5 working days and send your unique referral code on approval.
Share your code
Promote Buff through your content, newsletter, or network. Anyone who signs up using your code is attributed to you, including during any free trial period.
Earn recurring commission
We calculate and pay your commission every month on the 15th. Track everything in your affiliate dashboard: commission ledger, referred tenants, and payout history.
Commission structure
You earn a percentage of the net subscription revenue from each business you refer, for up to 24 months from the date they sign up.
| Period | Your commission rate | What your referral pays | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Months 1 to 3 | 50% | 20% off for the first 3 months | Highest rate while they are getting started |
| Months 4 to 9 | 20% | Full price | Ongoing recurring revenue for you |
| Months 10 to 24 | 10% | Full price | Long-tail earnings; window closes at 24 months |
| Month 25 onwards | None | Full price | Commission window closes |
Commission is calculated on net subscription revenue: the fee received by DASE excluding VAT, Stripe processing fees, application fees charged to your referral's end customers, and any top-up credits. Payouts require a minimum £50 accrued balance. We raise self-billing invoices on your behalf so you do not need to invoice us.
