Earnings and Payout

How much can you earn?

You earn 50% of the amount actually paid on a referred customer's first subscription invoice. Commission is calculated on the amount received after any discount, credit, promotion, or adjustment — not on the list price.

The examples below assume a full-price first invoice with no discounts applied.

R1 000

From 1 Enterprise referral

(R2 000 × 50%)

R1 200

From 3 Professional referrals

(R800 × 50% × 3)

R1 000

From 8 Starter referrals

(R250 × 50% × 8)

These are illustrative examples only. Actual commission depends on the plan chosen and the amount paid after discounts. Earnings are not guaranteed and depend on valid paid conversions.

Commission statuses

Pending

Your referral has signed up and their first payment has been received, but the seven-day confirmation window has not yet elapsed.

Payable

The confirmation window has passed and no refund or dispute has been raised. The amount is eligible for payout once your balance reaches the threshold.

Paid

A manual payout has been processed and a reference has been recorded against the commission.

Void

The qualifying payment was refunded, charged back, or disputed. The commission is cancelled.

Payout details

R1 000 threshold: Your payable balance must reach R1 000 or more before a payout is processed.

7-day confirmation: Commission is confirmed seven days after payment, provided no refund or dispute has been raised.

Manual payout: Payouts are processed monthly in arrears by Tenders-SA. A payout reference is recorded against each settled commission.

One-time commission: Commission is earned once per referred customer. Renewals, upgrades, add-ons, and unrelated purchases do not generate additional commission.

Promotion and Disclosure

You are an independent affiliate. You are not an employee, agent, official reseller, or representative of Tenders-SA, and you must not describe yourself as one.

I’m an independent Tenders-SA affiliate. If you subscribe through my link I may receive a one-time commission, at no additional cost to you.

Place the disclosure where the reader will see it before they click — not only in a footer, and not hidden behind a "more" link.

Prohibited claims
  • Do not guarantee income, tender outcomes, or specific results.
  • Do not describe yourself as an official Tenders-SA partner, agent, or reseller.
  • Do not make misleading claims about Tenders-SA features, data completeness, or government affiliation.
  • Do not promise pricing, discounts, or features that Tenders-SA has not published.

Full promotional materials, brand guidelines, and approved messaging templates are available on the Affiliate Programme Terms page and in your affiliate dashboard.
