Their success, your earnings

Your earnings depend on your active business's ZEN plan and how much they use ZEN. The better they do, the more you earn.

For e-commerce merchants

If you invite an e-commerce business, your earnings may also depend on the country they operate in and the payment methods they accept at checkout.

Earn more, for longer

Commission and earning period scale with each new active business you refer.

*Commission – the percentage of ZEN's profit you earn from each eligible fee your active businesses pay. The visuals show estimated earnings only and may differ from actual payouts.

Invite more. Earn more, for longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who can invite businesses as part of the Invite & Earn program?

    Anyone with a ZEN account can join Invite & Earn and invite businesses. The program is open to both individual and business users. For now, you can only earn commission from invited businesses. If someone you invite signs up with a personal account, you won’t earn from them.
  • Why does the business I invited still show as Activating?

    The business will stay in Activating until it completes the required activation steps: creating an account and making 1 transaction, either by card or through its payment gateway. You start earning from that business only after both steps are complete.
  • When do I start earning?

    From the moment your business goes Active. Not before.
  • How long do I earn for?

    You earn for 180 days from the date each invited business becomes active. During the promotional period, each new active business extends the earning period for your existing active businesses by 60 days. The standard extension is 30 days per new active business.
  • How do I get paid?

    Earnings are paid out to your EUR account within ZEN. No minimum or maximum withdrawal amount.
  • Can I increase my commission?

    Yes. Each new active business adds +4 percentage points to your commission rate across all active businesses, up to a maximum of 80%.
  • What is a referral program?

    A referral program rewards you for bringing new customers to a product or service. ZEN Invite & Earn is a business referral program: you earn a share of ZEN’s profit from eligible fees paid by each business you invite.
  • What are referral rewards?

    Referral rewards are earnings you receive when an invited business becomes active. With ZEN Invite & Earn, you earn a share of ZEN’s profit from eligible fees paid by that business – starting at a 50% commission rate for 180 days. Your rate and earning period can both increase as you invite more businesses.
  • Can I invite a business that already uses ZEN?

    No. The invited business must be new to ZEN with no prior account.
  • Is there a limit to how many businesses I can invite?

    No limit. More active referrals means a higher commission rate and longer earning periods.
  • Do I need a business account to participate?

    No. Both individual (B2C) and business (B2B) ZEN users can join the program.
  • What makes this one of the best referral programs?

    No limit on how many businesses you can invite, a commission rate that grows as more of them become active, and payouts straight to your ZEN account – with no minimum withdrawal amount.
