LowCode Referral Program

 1. Purpose

The referral program encourages external partners, clients, and contacts to introduce new clients to LowCode Agency. This SOP ensures everyone in the team understands the program, can explain it clearly, and knows how to process referrals from start to finish.

2. What the Referral Program Is

• External partners (Referral Partners) can earn a commission for introducing new clients to LowCode Agency.

• The commission is 10% of the total cost of the initial project (Version 1).

• Payments are made in the same installments as the client’s payment plan.

• Example: If a client’s project costs $50,000 and is paid in 5 installments of $10,000 each → the referral partner gets $1,000 after each installment.

• Important: Only the first version of the project is eligible. Future upgrades, new versions, or add-ons are excluded.

3. Who Can Be a Referral Partner

• They are free to work with other companies.

5. How the Program Works Step by Step

1. Referral Agreement Signed
   

   • Before any commission is paid, the Referral Partner must sign the official agreement.
     
     

2. Lead Becomes Client
   

   • If the referred person signs a project agreement and pays the first installment, the referral becomes “Active.”
     
     

3. Commission Calculation
   

   • 15% of the project’s total Version 1 cost.

   • Paid in line with the client’s installment structure.
     
     

4. Payment Process
   

   • Finance pays Referral Partner after each client installment.
