How it works

From application to commission in four steps

A B2B affiliate program for people who already talk to employers. You recommend CandidateForce, we track the companies you bring in, and you earn on what they pay.

  1. 02

    Get Your Referral Link

    After approval, create your unique affiliate tracking codes and links.

  2. 03

    Refer Companies

    Share CandidateForce with employers looking to hire and recruit candidates.

  3. 04

    Earn Commissions

    Receive commission on qualifying payments made by your referred companies during their commission period.

Commission terms

Your 12 months start when the company registers

The commission period begins on the day a referred company registers on CandidateForce, not on the day it first pays. Every qualifying payment received within that period earns commission on the full amount, even when it covers a longer term such as an annual subscription.

Example: a company registers today and makes its first payment in month 3. Its payments from month 3 to month 12 earn commission, so 10 monthly payments count, not 12. Payments received after month 12 do not earn commission.

What earns commission

  • Subscriptions and renewals
  • Additional user licences
  • Credit packs
  • Individual candidate unlocks

Card payments and bank transfers both count. Commission is calculated on the amount actually received, excluding tax.

What does not

  • Taxes such as VAT
  • Refunded or disputed payments
  • Payments made before the company was credited to you
  • Payments that are not CandidateForce revenue, such as agency services in the Marketplace

What a referral can be worth

Commission follows what referred companies actually pay. The figures below are illustrative examples at the default 10% rate, not a forecast or a promise.

Illustrative example

Commission per month€50
Over 12 months€600

Assumes every company pays the same amount every month of its 12-month commission period, at the default 10% rate.

All figures are illustrative examples, not guaranteed earnings. What you earn depends on the payments your referred companies actually make and on the terms confirmed when your application is approved.
