Yes, we have a referral program!  For every account that you refer to FreshBooks, you earn 25% of your referral’s fee for the first year they are a paying FreshBooks user.  Pretty sweet, eh?

Getting Started

Referring is a snap. First you need to navigate to your FreshBooks account referral page:

1. Login to your FreshBooks account as the Administrator (you need to create a FreshBooks system if you have not already).
2. Click on your Refer FreshBooks tab, found under your Home tab.

You will be taken to your “View Referrals” page where a unique affiliate link awaits you. Copy and paste that link onto your web page or into an email you can send to your friends, then sit back and watch the cash roll in. You can also use one of our pre-made banners by clicking the “Get Banners” link.

“What if someone I referred did not go through the referral process?”

If you referred a friend to FreshBooks and they didn’t sign up through your referral link or dedicated sign-up page, you can still have them as a referral, meaning you can earn income from their subscription! Just contact us (or give us a call toll free 1-866-303-6061) with your FreshBooks subdomain (the ‘xxx’ in xxx.freshbooks.com) and your friend’s subdomain and we’ll get it worked out.

Receiving Your Referral Income

You will receive a cheque from FreshBooks after you have accumulated $100 worth of referral income. Payouts from FreshBooks from referral links are made twice a year (January 31st and July 31st) providing your own FreshBooks system is active and in good standing.
