How It Works

3 steps
  1. 01You share your link

    Once we approve you, you get your own link and a partner page with your name on it. Put it in emails, posts, messages or on your website.

    Anyone who clicks it sees our booking page, made for your customers. They get an instant price and book a local driver.

    What your customers see.
    Every booking from it is tracked to you.

    Your dashboard lists each referral as it moves from booked to completed, with the commission on each one and the date it will be paid.

    You see the customer's first name and the postcode areas, never their full details.

    Your dashboard: every referral,
    its stage and what you've earned.

Why Become a Referral Partner

Paid monthly

5% of every completed booking

Paid on man and van moves and full removals booked online through your link. Your commission comes out of our fee, so your customers don't pay a penny more.

Paid monthly, straight to your bank

We pay on the 1st of each month for jobs completed the month before. You connect your UK bank account securely through Stripe. There's no minimum to reach.

Your own dashboard

See every referral as it moves from booked to completed, what you've earned on each one, and every payment we've sent you.

Your own link and partner page

Every partner gets a personal link and a partner page with their name on it. If you have a website we’ve checked, we can add a booking widget too.

A service worth recommending

Customers see an estimate before they book, nothing is charged until a driver confirms, and drivers bring blankets, straps and a trolley.

Free to join, no targets

No fees, no contract length and no minimum number of posts. Recommend us when it suits your audience.

Questions Referral Partners Ask

10 questions
01Which bookings earn commission?

Man and van and removals bookings made online through your link or partner page (or your booking widget, if you have one), once the job is completed. Bookings that are cancelled or don't go ahead don't earn commission, and neither do bookings made by phone or WhatsApp.

02Is this an affiliate programme?

Yes. It works like one: you get a tracked link, and you earn commission on the bookings it brings in. We call it a referral programme because many of our partners are businesses recommending us to their own customers, not just websites.

03Do I need to join an affiliate network?

No. You apply on this page and deal with us directly. There is no network to sign up to and no network fees.

04I'm a letting agent. Can I earn referral fees?

Yes. Many letting and estate agents earn referral fees from the suppliers they recommend. Tell your landlords and tenants that you receive one, as you would with any other supplier.

05How much will I earn?

5% of the value of each completed booking. Your dashboard shows the commission on every referral as it happens.

06Do my customers pay more?

No. Your commission comes out of our booking fee, so customers pay the same price they'd see on our website.

07When and how do I get paid?

On the 1st of each month, for jobs completed the month before. Payments go to your UK bank account through Stripe, which you connect from your dashboard after you're approved.

08Do I need to be a business?

No. Individuals, sole traders and companies can all apply. You'll need a UK bank account to receive payments.

09Do I have to post a set amount?

No. There are no targets and no contract length. Recommend us when it's useful to your audience, and label anything we pay you for as an ad.

10Can I put a booking widget on my website?

Possibly. If you have a website, tell us when you apply. We check every site first, and if it’s a good fit we give you one line of code that adds our booking widget, with bookings tracked to you. We don’t offer the widget for coupon, cashback or unrelated sites, and every partner gets a link either way.
