Part 2 — Sharing Your Link

Click Copy Link to copy your unique referral link. Then share it however works best for you:

Ideas for sharing:

  • Send it by email to a business owner you know
  • Share in a WhatsApp or text message
  • Post it on LinkedIn if you want to reach a wider audience
  • Add it to your email signature

💡 Tip: The most effective referrals come from a personal recommendation. A short note like "I use WorkRoster for our timesheets — it's really simple, you should try it" works better than just sending a link.


Part 3 — Tracking Your Referrals

On the Referrals page you can see:

Metric What It Means
Total Referred How many people signed up using your link
Converted How many of those became paying customers
Credits Earned Your total earned rewards
Next Credit Applied When your credit will appear on your next bill

Part 4 — How Credits Are Applied

Credits are applied automatically to your next monthly invoice. You do not need to do anything.

Example:
  Your monthly bill:   $9.90
  Referral credit:    −$5.00
  Amount charged:      $4.90

Credits accumulate until your next billing date, then are applied as a discount. If your credits exceed your monthly bill, the remainder carries over to the following month.
