If you do not have your bank info set up in your HoneyBook account, HoneyBook can't send you your referral earnings. Here's how to connect your bank account to HoneyBook.


How does the referral program's fraud monitoring work?

To ensure that the referral program can continue to best serve the community, the program is closely monitored by a dedicated Fraud team—the same team that protects your account from fraudulent activity and maintains the safety of you and your clients’ information.

📣 Note

If a referral is suspected as fraudulent, HoneyBook will take swift action in compliance with the Terms of Service. Generally, that means withholding or retracting payments until a final determination can be made.

How does my unique referral link work?

Your referral link is a sharable link that is unique to you as a HoneyBook member. You can use your link to give friends and industry connections a discount on their first year on HoneyBook.

Since the link is unique to you, HoneyBook can track who clicks and signs up for a membership—which, in turn, lets HoneyBook know to pay you.

📣 Note

Your unique code can be overridden by other sales codes or coupons, so use these referral best practices to ensure your referrals actually use your code.


How much can I earn from referrals?

You can invite as many people to HoneyBook using your referral link as you want. With that said, you can earn up to $10,000 annually from referring new members as part of the Basic or Premium Referral tiers.

There is no maximum referral earning for members of the Educator Program. You can learn more about Basic vs. Premium Referrals here, and learn how referral earnings affect your taxes here.


Is there a limit on how many people I can invite to HoneyBook?

There's no limit on the ampunt of people you can refer. You can invite as many people to HoneyBook using your referral link as you want.


How do I know who has used my referral to sign up for a HoneyBook membership?

When someone uses your unique link to sign up for a free trial of HoneyBook, you'll get an email. This email will include a button to contact your referral, allowing you to share your honest experience, remind them of your shared discount, or simply say thanks! You can track all your referrals in your Referral Dashboard.


What if I refer someone who forgets to use my referral code?

Reach out to the Support team—depending on the situation, HoneyBook can sometimes grant a referral as a courtesy if someone forgets to use your link. This is determined on a case by case basis.

You can send a message by clicking the Question Mark icon on any HoneyBook page, and a team member will check to see if the person you referred used your link when signing up.


If someone uses my referral link and then cancels their subscription, do I get paid?

If you refer someone to HoneyBook, they must remain a subscribing member for 90 business days in order for you to secure your referral earnings.

If they cancel their membership before 90 business days, your referral earnings will not apply.
