# Referral Program

> Earn 25% of platform fees for 12 months when you refer new doctors or attorneys to ExpertMD.

# Referral Program

ExpertMD rewards you for growing the platform. When you refer a new doctor or attorney who signs up and starts using ExpertMD, you earn **25% of the platform fees** generated by that user for **12 months** from their sign-up date.

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Get your referral link">
    Your unique referral link is available on your dashboard in the Referral card, and also in **Settings > Referrals**. Copy the link with one click.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Share your link">
    Share your referral link with colleagues, attorneys, or other medical professionals. You can share it via email, social media, or in person.
  </Step>

  <Step title="They sign up">
    When someone clicks your link and creates an ExpertMD account, they are automatically tagged as your referral.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You earn commissions">
    For every invoice paid on the platform by or to your referral, you earn 25% of the 2% platform fee. This continues for 12 months from their sign-up date.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Earnings example

| Referral's Invoice | Platform Fee (2%) | Your Commission (25%) |
| ------------------ | ----------------- | --------------------- |
| \$5,000            | \$100             | \$25                  |
| \$10,000           | \$200             | \$50                  |
| \$25,000           | \$500             | \$125                 |

Over 12 months, if your referral generates \$100,000 in invoices, you earn:

* Platform fee: $100,000 x 2% = $2,000
* Your commission: $2,000 x 25% = **$500\*\*

<Info>
  There is no limit to the number of people you can refer. Each referral earns you commissions independently for 12 months from their individual sign-up date.
</Info>

## Tracking your referrals

On your dashboard and in **Settings > Referrals**, you can see:

* Total number of referrals
* Active referrals (within the 12-month earning period)
* Total commissions earned
* Commission earnings by referral

## Commission payouts

Referral commissions are added to your Stripe Connect payout balance and deposited along with your regular case earnings. They appear as separate line items in your earnings breakdown.

<Tip>
  The referral program works for both doctor and attorney referrals. If you refer an attorney who starts paying invoices on the platform, you earn commissions on those payments too.
