Referral Programme Terms
Last updated: 8th January 2026
To keep things clear and fair, here’s how the Scale Now Design Referral Programme works.
Eligibility
Referrals apply only to new clients who engage Scale Now Design.
A client can only be referred by one person, as named during onboarding.
You cannot refer yourself, your own business, or a company you work for.
Referrals are only valid if the client was not already in contact or active discussion with Scale Now Design.
Referrals must be for genuine businesses or founders, at the discretion of Scale Now Design.
Eligible Work
Scale Now Design primarily works on project-based engagements and product partner work.
Projects & Engagements
Referral commission is 5% of the total agreed project or engagement value.
This applies only to the first paid engagement with a new client.
Follow-on phases, extensions, retainers, or future projects with the same client are not eligible for additional commission.
Payment & Payouts
Referral rewards become eligible once the client’s first payment has cleared.
Commission is calculated on amounts actually paid by the client (excluding VAT).
Payouts are made monthly, typically within the first week of the following month.
Rewards are paid via bank transfer or PayPal.
Conflicts & Disputes
If multiple people claim the same referral, the client’s response during onboarding will determine who is credited.
The onboarding response is final and cannot be changed later.
Scale Now Design’s decision on referral validity is final.
Programme Changes
Scale Now Design reserves the right to amend or end the referral programme at any time.
Any referrals already confirmed in writing before a change will still be honoured under the original terms.
