They open your link and pay their first Pro or Unlimited invoice. You get 50% off one month of your own.
Unlimited with one coupon on it. Your account and the pricing page say coupons; the Terms say referral rewards — same thing, section 4.4.
In Account → Billing → "Invite & earn". Every account has one from minute one, on any plan, Free included.
The code only travels with email sign-up. The Google button does not carry it yet, and a sign-up without your link cannot be added later.
Pro or Unlimited, monthly or annual: both count. The €1 trial, top-up packs, €0 invoices and renewals do not.
Those days are the buyer's legal right to cancel, not a hold we invented. After that it never expires.
Coupons chain instead of adding up: each one halves what is left. Unlimited is €30 a month, Pro is €15.
A coupon only comes off a monthly subscription invoice. All four must already be available, and four is the cap per invoice, not per account: hold six and the rest wait.
You earn when someone who registered through your link pays their first invoice for Pro or Unlimited, for an amount above zero. Their own billing period does not matter: monthly or annual, both count.
What does not count: the €1 24-hour trial, hour top-up packs, any invoice of €0, and renewals. The trial is a one-off payment rather than a subscription, so if that same person later subscribes to Pro or Unlimited, that first subscription invoice does earn you a coupon.
One coupon per person you invite, however many times they subscribe. No limit on how many people you invite, and no threshold to reach.
A coupon is earned the moment the person you invited pays, and becomes available 14 days later. Those 14 days are their legal right to cancel, not a hold we invented.
If that payment is refunded, reversed or disputed inside the window, the coupon is withdrawn. Otherwise it turns available on its own when the window closes.
An available coupon never expires: you decide which invoice it comes off.
Coupons chain rather than add up, so n of them take 1 − 0.5n off the invoice: one is 50%, two 75%, three 87.5%, four 93.75%.
Unlimited at €30 goes to €15.00, €7.50, €3.75 and €1.88. Pro at €15 goes to €7.50, €3.75, €1.88 and €0.94.
All four have to be available already. Four is the cap per invoice, not per account: hold six and the other two wait for a later invoice. Figures are rounded to the cent and the exact charge can come out a cent lower.
One coupon is 50% off one monthly invoice, once. The month after, you are billed the normal price unless you redeem again.
If you already subscribe monthly, the discount is attached to your subscription and applies the next time you are billed. Nothing is refunded or credited for an invoice you have already paid, and there is no proration.
It goes on top of your current price, which is already the launch price, and on top of any discount already on your account.
An invoice never goes below €0.
A coupon discounts a monthly subscription invoice and cannot be spent on an hour top-up pack.
At checkout it is one or the other: a pending coupon and a typed discount code cannot be combined, so clear the code or redeem later.
Redeeming on an annual subscription is refused, with a message telling you to switch to monthly billing first.
It works the other way too: while a redemption is waiting for your next monthly invoice you cannot switch to yearly billing. Let that invoice arrive first — it is a month away at most.
You do not have to be subscribed. Redeem on the Free plan and the discount waits: it applies on its own the moment you subscribe to Pro or Unlimited on monthly billing.
If that first subscription turns out to be an annual one, nothing is lost: it goes through at the normal annual price and your coupons go back to available.
Only one redemption is pending at a time: until it has been applied you cannot redeem another batch, and the coupons you did not spend stay available meanwhile.
So if you are holding several and are about to subscribe, redeem the batch you want in one go, up to four. You cannot add the rest to that first invoice afterwards.
On a live monthly subscription whose price the screen can read, it shows the arithmetic: €30.00 → €15.00 on your next invoice.
If that price cannot be read, it shows the percentage only. With no subscription yet, it says the discount will be applied automatically when you subscribe to a monthly plan.
Your account page uses four words.
| What your account says | What it means |
|---|---|
| Available | Past its 14 days. Redeem it whenever you want; it does not expire. |
| Unlocking | They have paid. The date shown is when that coupon becomes available, 14 days after the payment. |
| Used | Redeemed. The discount sits on your subscription until the next monthly invoice picks it up, or waits for your first one if you have not subscribed yet. |
| Under review | The two accounts look like the same person or the same connection at sign-up, so a person checks it by hand instead of it maturing on its own. |
Referring your own second email address is not allowed.
When the two accounts look like the same person, or like the same connection at sign-up — two flatmates on one home line count — the coupon is held for manual review, and the outcome of that review is not guaranteed.
If yours is held and you think it should not be, write to [email protected] and say who you invited.
The code is recorded when the person registers with an email address after opening your link. Google sign-in does not carry it yet.
A sign-up that did not use the link cannot be attributed afterwards, because there is no record to attach it to.
Pressing Redeem records the date you accepted the version of the Terms that was live at that moment, along with your IP address, the same as when you signed up.
The full conditions are in section 4.4 of the Terms of Service.
