# Referral Policy

## Referral Policy

Folio's referral program rewards you for introducing qualified healthcare professionals to the platform. When someone you refer gets hired, you earn a cash reward.

### How It Works

1. Go to **Referrals** in the left sidebar.
2. Click **Generate Referral Link** to create your unique referral URL.
3. Share your link with colleagues, classmates, or other healthcare professionals.
4. When they sign up using your link and are hired for a Folio project, you earn **$100**.

### Eligibility

#### Who Can Refer

* Any active Folio user with a completed profile.

#### Who Qualifies as a Referral

* The referred person must be a new Folio user (not previously registered).
* They must sign up using your unique referral link.
* They must be hired for and begin work on a Folio project.

#### Referral Reward

* **$100 per qualified referral**, paid after the referred user meets the hiring threshold.
* There is no cap on the number of referrals you can make.

### Tracking Your Referrals

Your **Referrals** page displays:

* **Total Referrals** — Number of users who signed up with your link
* **Total Hired** — Number of referrals who were hired
* **Total Earned** — Cumulative referral earnings
* A table showing each referred user's name, current status, payout status, and payout date

### Payment Processing

Referral rewards are paid via your connected Stripe account on the same schedule as regular project earnings.

### Frequently Asked Questions

<details>

<summary>Can I refer myself or create duplicate accounts to earn referral rewards?</summary>

No. Self-referrals and duplicate accounts are prohibited and will result in disqualification of referral rewards and potential suspension.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What if my referred contact signed up but hasn't been hired yet?</summary>

Your referral is tracked from the moment they sign up with your link. You will earn the reward once they are hired — there is no expiration on pending referrals.
