Referral Program FAQ

The HostUpon Referral Program is for existing customers who can earn commission for referring new clients.  It’s free to join and accessible through the Client Area on our website.

The Referral Program is  designed for individuals or businesses that have their own website  and wish to generate additional revenue by promoting HostUpon’s web hosting services through their website or social platforms.  From individuals, developers, designers and agencies, the earning potential is limitless.


How to join the Referral Program?

Clients can join the Referral Program by clicking on the ‘Referrals‘ link in their Client Area.


Is it Free to join?

Yes, the Referral Program is 100% free to join.  We also add $10 for free to your balance to get you started!


How does it work?

You will receive a unique referral URL to share with friends and family.  When someone clicks on your tracking link and purchases web hosting services you will earn a commission for the sale.


Does my referral need to signup right away?

No, the unique cookie is active for 30 days.  As long as they signup for web hosting within 30 days of clicking your link you will receive the commission.


How much can I earn?

The commission value is based on the service your referral signs up for.  Every qualified sale generated by a click on your unique referral link will award you a commission.  There is no limit to how much you can earn! Our top referrals are making over $4500/month by sharing their unique link on social platforms, blogs and with friends and family.


How do I get paid once I have the minimum payout?

Once you have reached the minimum payout amount in commissions, simply request a payout through the referral dashboard in the Client Area. Payments are sent through PayPal only.  If you do not have PayPal, you can request a credit balance on your account.


Do I get paid if my referral cancels their plan?

Clients you refer to HostUpon must remain active for 35 in order for the commission to be valid.  After the new customer has been with us for 35 days the commission is awarded and past maturation.

If your referral cancels within the first 31 days of service the commission is invalid and is not paid out.

Does my referral have to place their order on the same day the link is clicked?

Your referral has 30 days from the time they click your referral link to purchase hosting services.  When you recommend a client, we will place a small and non-intrusive file called a ‘cookie’ on their computer. This will enable us to identify who referred them. Once the client places an order, we can promptly credit your account with the appropriate referral commission.

You cannot refer yourself even if you’re purchasing a new plan.  All sales will be reviewed for eligibility. Your referral must be a new customer who has never had services with HostUpon.
