Two-Stage Rewards
Stage 1: Onboarding (π° 10) Your referral qualifies when they:
Sign up using your link
Complete their seller profile
Connect a payment provider (Stripe or PayPal)
Stage 2: First Transaction (π° 15) You earn more when they complete their first buy or sell transaction on ShopBroker.
When Your BrokerBucks Arrive
BrokerBucks are deposited immediately to your account when each milestone is reached:
π° 10 as soon as they complete onboarding
π° 15 as soon as they complete their first transaction
No waiting, no countdown - instant rewards!
How Stacking Works
Each referral earns you up to π° 25:
Referrals | Total BrokerBucks | Covers Service Fees On |
1 | π° 25 | ~$167 in sales |
3 | π° 75 | ~$500 in sales |
5 | π° 125 | ~$833 in sales |
10 | π° 250 | ~$1,667 in sales |
What BrokerBucks Do
BrokerBucks automatically reduce your service fees when you sell. For each sale:
Your service fee is calculated as usual
Your available BrokerBucks are applied to reduce it
You keep more of your sale price
Example
Selling a $100 item with π° 15 in BrokerBucks:
Normal | With π° 15 Bucks | |
Your price | $100 | $100 |
Service fee (15%) | $15 | $15 - $15 = $0 |
You receive | $85 | $100 |
Tracking Your Referrals
In your account, see:
People who signed up with your link
Whether they've completed onboarding (Stage 1)
Whether they've completed first transaction (Stage 2)
Your total BrokerBucks earned

Rules and Details
Who Counts as a Referral?
Must be brand new to ShopBroker

BrokerBucks Never Expire
Your BrokerBucks stay in your account indefinitely. Take a break from selling? They'll be waiting when you return.
Stacking Works Immediately
If you get 3 referrals who complete both stages:
You'll have π° 75 in your account
They apply automatically to your next sales
No activation or countdown needed
Link Never Expires
Your referral link doesn't expire. Share it anytime - it's always valid.
Tips for Successful Referrals
Target Good Candidates
Best referrals are people who:
Already sell online (Kijiji, Facebook Marketplace)
Have items to sell now
Value secure transactions
Explain the Benefits
Tell them why ShopBroker helps:
> "I use ShopBroker for my sales. The payment protection is great - you never worry about getting paid. Here's my referral link if you want to try it!"
Follow Up
Check in if they sign up but haven't sold yet:
> "Hey, did you get your listing set up? Let me know if you have questions!"
Be Genuine
Share because you actually like the platform, not just for the rewards. Authentic recommendations convert better.
Common Questions
Can I refer buyers?
The referral program rewards both buyer and seller transactions. Your friend earns you the Stage 2 bonus whether they buy or sell first.
Do they get anything?
Currently, the program rewards the referrer. Referred sellers get the benefit of a great platform!
What if they delete their account?
As long as they completed the milestone before leaving, your BrokerBucks stand.
Is there a cap?
No limit! Refer as many people as you want and earn π° 25 for each successful referral.
