Your introductions are worth more than you think.
You already connect companies with the right service providers. Refenture makes sure you get paid for it — with clear agreements, full transparency, and money in your bank account.
You've been here before.
You introduce a contact to a service provider you trust. A warm, personal recommendation that took years of relationship to build.
Then... nothing. No update on whether the meeting happened. No idea if a deal closed. No clarity on commission terms, or if there even are any. Maybe you get paid six months later after chasing three emails. Maybe you don't get paid at all.
So next time someone asks “do you know a good software agency?”, you think about it for a second. And you say nothing. Because it's not worth the hassle.
That's the problem Refenture solves.
Click, click, done. Then track everything.
Making a referral
- Pick the customer contact and the vendor contact from your network on the platform.
- The vendor reviews and accepts (or declines with a reason, so you always know why).
- Make the introduction however you want: email, phone, LinkedIn, in person. Refenture provides templates if you want them, but you do it your way.
- Click “I've made the introduction.” That's your e-signature. The date is captured automatically.
- The vendor confirms they received the intro. Their e-signature.
- The referral agreement is auto-generated with all terms and sent to both of you. No lawyers, no negotiation, no chasing.
After the referral
- See real-time status of every referral you've made.
- Track commissions: what's earned, what's booked, what's projected.
- Get consolidated monthly payments, no matter how many vendors you work with.
- Year-end tax summaries ready for your accountant.
Industry standard: 10% of one year's invoicing.
When a company you refer becomes a paying customer, you earn a commission from the vendor. The standard in the industry is roughly 10% of one year's actual invoicing.
You introduce a company to a software agency. They sign a deal worth $500,000 in the first year. Your commission: $50,000.
Commission terms are set per vendor and per commission plan. Some vendors offer more for specific services or during promotional campaigns. You can compare commission plans across vendors on the platform.
Refenture takes a 20% service fee from your commission for handling agreements, tracking, consolidated payments, and tax paperwork. In the example above, you receive $40,000. Refenture's fee covers everything, so you never deal with invoicing, contracts, or chasing payments yourself.
One introduction is good. A network is a business.
Most advisors have one or two vendors they recommend informally. Refenture lets you scale that into a real income stream.
Browse the vendor marketplace to discover companies worth recommending. Compare commission plans side by side. Connect with vendors in your industry or explore new ones.
The more vendors in your network, the more opportunities you can match. More matches, more introductions, more commissions.
Set your profile to “Open for Business” and let vendors find you too.
Free. Always.
Refenture is free for advisors. No subscription, no hidden costs, no trial period that expires.
You make introductions. You get paid. Refenture handles the rest.
If a referral doesn't lead to a deal, you owe nothing. If you don't use the platform for months, nothing happens. There's no commitment and no downside.
You've tried referral programs before. Here's what's different.
- Agreements before introductions, not after. Before you make any introduction, the terms are clear, agreed, and signed. No ambiguity. No “we'll figure it out later.”
- You always know what's happening. Real-time dashboard shows every referral, its status, and your expected commission. No chasing, no wondering, no black holes.
- One payment, not many. Work with vendors in different countries, with different payment terms and currencies. Refenture consolidates everything into one monthly payment to your account, with tax documentation included.
- The vendor can't ghost you. Every step of the process is tracked. The vendor must accept or decline your referral with a reason. They must confirm the introduction. There's an audit trail for everything.
You already make valuable introductions. Start getting paid for them.
No credit card. No commitment. Takes 2 minutes.
