How the CMA affiliate programme works
Four simple steps from sign-up to recurring monthly earnings.
Create a free CMA account, then opt in from your Referrals settings to generate your unique link, code, and QR code.
Send your link by message, post the QR on a flyer, drop it on social - any way you reach tradespeople who would benefit from CMA.
When somebody you referred finishes their free trial and starts a paid subscription, their referral status flips to paid.
You earn £10 in arrears for every month they remain subscribed. If they cancel, unpaid balances for cancelled months are voided.
The terms at a glance
Flat £10 per referral, per month, for as long as they stay on a paid plan. Recurring - not a one-off finder's fee.
Refer one business or refer fifty - your earnings stack. There is no maximum number of active referrals you can hold.
Each £10 is owed at the end of a month a referred subscription was active. Cancellations void unpaid balances for the cancelled month.
Once you opt in, your dashboard gives you a unique referral link, a short code, and a downloadable QR code suitable for flyers, business cards, and van wraps.
See every sign-up that came through your link, their current status, total paid out, and pending balance - all from one screen in your account.
We attribute every sign-up that arrives via your link or code. No murky last-click rules - if they came through you, they're yours.
What recurring £10 actually adds up to
Because the £10 is recurring, even modest referral counts compound quickly. Here's a rough illustration over a 12 month window.
| Active referrals | Per month | Per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | £10 | £120 |
| 5 | £50 | £600 |
| 10 | £100 | £1,200 |
| 25 | £250 | £3,000 |
| 50 | £500 | £6,000 |
Illustration only. Actual earnings depend on how many of your referrals subscribe and stay subscribed each month.
Who the programme is built for
Plumbers, electricians, builders, carpenters, decorators - anyone who knows other tradespeople still wrestling with paperwork and chasing invoices in a notebook.
Local trade groups, WhatsApp networks, and member associations who want to recommend a simple, honest tool to their members.
Practices working with sole-trader and small trade clients can refer CMA when their clients need quoting, invoicing, and a client portal in one place.
Publishers, YouTubers, and bloggers covering trade business topics - your audience is exactly who CMA is built for.
Business coaches helping tradespeople tighten up systems often need to recommend the actual software. CMA fits cleanly into that recommendation.
Already using CMA? You can opt into referrals from your settings. Same £10/month deal, no separate sign-up needed.
Affiliate programme FAQ
How much do I earn per referral?
You earn £10 per month for each business that signs up through your referral link or code and stays on a paid CMA subscription. The £10 keeps recurring every month they remain subscribed.
Is the £10 a one-off or recurring?
It is recurring. You are paid £10 in arrears for every month a referred business is on a paid plan - not just the first month they subscribe.
When am I paid?
Earnings accrue in arrears at the end of each subscription month. Your dashboard shows total paid out and pending balance in real time, so there are no surprises.
What if a referral cancels?
You keep everything you have already earned. Unpaid balances tied to a cancelled subscription month are voided, and the referral status changes to cancelled in your statement.
Do I need to be a paying CMA customer to refer?
No. The programme is open to anyone with a free CMA account. Once you opt in, you get a unique link, a code, and a QR code to share - even if you are not subscribed yourself.
How are referrals attributed to me?
When somebody clicks your unique link or enters your code at sign-up, we attribute the resulting account to you. Your statement page shows every sign-up that came through your code, with current status.
Is there a cap on how much I can earn?
No. There is no cap on the number of active referrals or on total earnings. Your earnings scale with how many of your referrals stay subscribed.
How do I sign up?
Create a free CMA account, then go to Settings → Referrals and click "Opt in to referrals". Your unique link, code, and QR code are generated immediately and you can start sharing straight away.
When does this promotion expire?
The current payment duration of this affiliate programme is set to run until December 2027. Before this time you will be notified of any change to the programme and whether you'd like to continue or opt out.
