Billing & account

How does the Warmerly referral programme work?

Every account has its own referral link. When someone signs up through it and pays their first invoice, you both get one month of Starter as account credit. The credit comes off your next invoice automatically. It is credit, never cash.

The public terms are at warmerly.com/referrals. The reward amount is worked out from the current Starter price and is shown on that page and in the app.

  1. Open Settings > Refer a friend in app.warmerly.com. It is also a Refer a friend row at the bottom of the sidebar.
  2. Your link is shown with a copy button, and Post on X, Share on LinkedIn and Email a friend buttons prefill a message for you.
  3. Below it, Your referrals shows how many people Signed up, how many Became paying, and the credit earned, with a list of the people you referred (their emails are partly hidden) marked "Signed up" or "Paying".

Links look like warmerly.com/r/(your code). Your code is created the first time you open the page.

How does someone become a referral?

  1. They open your link. It takes them to the Warmerly register page with your code attached. No cookie is set, so there is nothing to accept.
  2. They create an account on that page, with email, Google or Microsoft. A "You were referred" notice appears on the form.
  3. They start paying on a paid plan.

Only the register page counts. Someone who opens your link and then signs up from a different page, or in the Android app, is not attributed to you. Ask them to sign up straight from your link.

When do I get the credit?

When the person you referred pays their first invoice with money on it. Then:

  • You each get one month of Starter as account credit, applied to your next invoice(s) automatically.
  • A free trial does not count. An invoice fully covered by a 100%-off promo code does not count either.
  • If you are on Free with no card on file, your credit waits and is applied when you start a paid plan.
  • You get a "referral reward" email, which follows the Setup tips & check-ins switch in Email preferences.

Occasionally the credit is applied a little after the payment, because it is finalised in a follow-up step. If you skipped the trial and paid at once, it can land on your second invoice rather than your first.

The rules

  • Only new accounts can be referred, and referring yourself does not count.
  • The link is attached at signup and cannot be changed afterwards.
  • There is a cap on how many referral credits you can earn in any rolling 12 months. The current cap is on the referral page.
  • Credit is not cash, cannot be withdrawn and is used up by your future invoices.
  • Warmerly can withhold credit for referrals that are clearly not genuine, such as one person opening accounts to refer themselves. There is no other automatic fraud check, but a referral only earns credit when the person actually pays.

Common problems

"My friend signed up but I got nothing." Check the Your referrals list on Settings > Refer a friend. If they show "Signed up", they have not paid yet. If they are not on the list at all, they did not sign up from your link. If they show "Paying" and there is no credit, email support@warmerly.com.

"My friend is not on my list." They probably signed up through another page or the Android app. Referrals are only captured on the register page.

"Can I get the reward as cash or a discount code?" No. It is account credit only.

"I am a Free user. What do I do with the credit?" It waits until you start a paid plan.
