Affiliate Program
Know local business owners? Share your Business Near Me link. When a business signs up for a Premium Profile or orders a website through it, you earn 20% of what they pay.
How You Earn
- Premium Profile: 20% of each payment for the business's first 12 months. That's $5.80 a month on the $29 monthly plan, or $58.00 on the $290 yearly plan.
- Website build: 20% of the build fee, once. That's $59.80 on the $299 one-page website and $199.80 on the $999 full website, plus 20% of any priced add-ons.
- Custom website: 20% of the website fee for a fully custom website by Advisors Marketing & SEO, once. That's $640.00 on a $3,200 website.
Commissions are on what the business pays after any discount. Website hosting, sales tax and domain fees don't earn.
How It Works
- Apply. It takes a minute. We review every application by hand.
- Share your link. Once you're approved, your dashboard shows your link. Add
?ref=and your code to any page on the site, such as the website page or a category page. - 30-day window. A visitor who clicks your link and creates a Business Near Me account within 30 days becomes your referral. If they click another affiliate's link before creating it, the later link gets the credit. Accounts that already exist don't count.
- Get paid. Each commission can be paid 30 days after the payment it came from, so refunds settle first. We pay once a month by Zelle, once you have $35.00 or more to collect. When a referral's 12 months are up, we pay what's left even if it's less.
- Track everything. Your affiliate dashboard shows clicks, sign-ups, paying customers, what you've earned, what we've paid and what we owe you.
The Main Rules
- Say it's an affiliate link every time you share it, for example: "I earn a commission if you sign up through my link."
- No spam, no paid search ads on the Business Near Me name, and no referring yourself or your own business.
- A refunded payment reverses its commission.
