Refer live captions and translation. Get rewarded.
Recommend ConferenceCaptioning to the events you work with. Customers you refer get a discount, and you earn a commission or, for non-profits, credits or a donation.
How it works
- Apply. Tell us about your company and how you would introduce ConferenceCaptioning to customers.
- Get approved. We review every application and then send your unique link and partner code.
- Share it. Send customers your link, or have them enter your code at sign-up or on a demo call.
- Get paid. When a referred customer signs and pays, you earn commission on their first event or first year, then 10% of what they pay for the next 24 months.

See the non-profit page →What you earn
Cash partners earn commission on every referred customer. The more customers you sign in a year, the higher your rate. Non-profits can choose account credits or a donation instead.
| Tier | Signed customers in the last 12 months | Commission |
|---|---|---|
| Silver | 1–2 | 15% |
| Gold | 3–5 | 20% |
| Platinum | 6 or more | Negotiable with scale |
Your tier rate is a percentage of what the customer actually paid for their first event or first year, after any discount. After that, you earn 10% of what the customer pays for the next 24 months, counted from their first payment. Platinum is negotiable with scale: we agree your rate together.
Example: a customer on the annual plan
The Standard plan is $400 per month billed annually, or $4,800 a year. A customer you refer gets 10% off their first year, so they pay $4,320. Your commission is a percentage of what they actually paid.
| Partner tier | Basis | You earn |
|---|---|---|
| Silver (15%) | 15% of $4,320, first year | $648 |
| Gold (20%) | 20% of $4,320, first year | $864 |
| Platinum | Negotiable with scale | Agreed with you |
| Any tier, a renewal within 24 months | 10% of $4,800 | $480 |
The example uses today’s published price. Customers who book by the event work the same way, using what they actually paid.
What your referral gets
Customers you refer get 10% off their first event or first year. Non-profits are eligible for our existing non-profit discount of up to 50% off their first event or first year, and a partner referral makes the full discount more likely.
How credit works
- Attribution window: 180 days. A customer who creates a new account within 180 days of clicking your link is credited to you.
- Most recent link wins. If a customer clicked links from two partners, the more recent one gets the credit.
- New customers only. Existing accounts don’t qualify.
- Or use your code. The customer can enter your partner code when they sign up or mention it on a demo call.
- Manual approval and payouts. We review every application. Payouts are made by us after the customer has paid.
Built on purpose
Every part of the program is a choice, made for how events actually get bought.
- Credit that lasts 180 days. Events are booked months in advance, so a short tracking window would miss the introduction you made.
- Credit on a demo call. Many of our customers start with a conversation, not a checkout. Have them say your code on the call and you are credited even if they never click your link.
- Commission that continues. After the first event or year, you keep earning 10% of what the customer pays for the next 24 months.
- Both sides win. The people you refer get a discount, so recommending us is an easy yes.
- Non-profits are first-class partners. Credits or a donation to your organization, for people who cannot take a commission.
- A person on the other end. We review every application and make every payout ourselves, so you work with us, not a ticket queue.
- See what is happening. Your dashboard lists every account you referred: who signed up, whether the account is still active, whether it became a paying customer, and what you earned.
What approved partners get
A partner kit in your portal, so you can talk about ConferenceCaptioning in your own words.
- Texts you can say. A podcast read, social posts, an email introduction and a line for AV proposals, each with the disclosure included.
- Your link and QR code. Ready to show on a slide or in a video.
- Claims you can trust. The numbers you may quote, from our published benchmark, and what not to say.
- Video clips with suggested voiceovers. Captions on the screens at a live event, an attendee reading on a phone, and screen recordings of the program. Add your own voice.
Partner rules
Tell people you earn a commission when you recommend us. Use only our published accuracy and delay numbers (see the benchmark) and don’t make other claims about what the product does. Referring yourself doesn’t earn a commission.
You can see the name and email of each account created through your link or code, and whether it became a paying customer. Use that information only to support the customer, and don’t share it or use it for anything else.
Cash payouts may require tax information, for example a W-9 for partners in the United States. We tell you what we need when you are approved.
Frequently asked questions
When do I get paid?
After the referred customer has signed and paid for their first event or first year, and after each later payment that earns the ongoing 10%. Payouts are manual and we agree the method when you are approved.
How do you know a customer came from me?
Your link carries your partner code. We store it for 180 days and attach it to the new account when the customer signs up. A customer can also enter your code at sign-up or mention it on a demo call.
Can I refer my own company?
No. Referring yourself doesn’t earn a commission.
What counts as a new customer?
An account created after someone clicked your link (within 180 days), or one that gave your code at sign-up or on a demo call. Existing accounts don’t qualify.
Can non-profits take cash?
Non-profit partners choose account credits or a donation to their organization instead of cash.
How are the tiers counted?
By the number of customers you signed in the last 12 months: Silver is 1 to 2, Gold is 3 to 5, and Platinum is 6 or more. Platinum is negotiable with scale, so we agree your rate together.
What if two partners referred the same customer?
The more recent link gets the credit.
What can I see about my referrals?
Your dashboard lists every account you referred: who signed up, their stream, whether the account is still active, whether it became a paying customer, and what you earned.
