How simple is it?

It's just a
referral.

Think of it like recommending a tradie to a friend — except you get paid for it. If you know someone who runs a hospitality venue, you tell them about us and we take it from there. There's no pitch to learn, no targets to hit, no follow-up required from you. We handle the conversation, the demo, the close, and everything after.

You just make the introduction — by text, by phone, in person, however feels natural — and when they have a call with our team, you earn your fee.

👋
You make the intro
Tell a venue owner you know about us. It can be a text, a phone call, mentioning it in passing — whatever feels natural. That's your entire job.

📞
We take it from there
Our team reaches out, runs a free 15-minute profit review with the venue, and handles everything from demo to close. You don't need to be involved.

💰
You get paid
When the venue becomes a customer, your referral fee lands in your bank account fortnightly. No chasing, no invoicing — it's automatic when you submit the referral in your portal.

What you earn

The more you refer,
the more you earn.

A flat fee per converted venue — no complicated calculations. Tiers are assessed every month. Once you hit Active or Elite, your rate locks in for that quarter plus the full next quarter. One strong quarter protects your rate for up to two months.

Starter tier
1–2 venues per month
Good for occasional introductions. No minimum, no commitment. Refer one venue and you're in. Every conversion earns your fee regardless of tier.
$25
per converted venue
Active tier
3–4 venues per month
Three times the Starter rate. Achievable for anyone with a genuine network in hospitality. Three venues a month is one referral every ten days.
$75
per converted venue · tier locks for next month
Elite tier
5+ venues per month
The best rate in the market. For accountants, food reps and industry suppliers who can introduce multiple venues consistently. Your tier locks for up to two months once earned.
$100
per converted venue · locks after 2 consecutive months
Common questions

Quick answers.

Do I need to know anything about the products?
Not at all. You don't need to explain anything about what we do. All you're doing is saying "hey, I know a company that helps venues save money — want me to get them to give you a call?" That's it. We handle everything else.
What exactly do I say to the venue?
Keep it simple. Something like: "I know a company that's been saving restaurants $1,500–$3,500 a month on produce and tech. They do a free 15-minute review — no obligation. Want me to put you in touch?" That's genuinely all you need. You can also just send them a text with our number.
Do I need to follow up or stay involved after the intro?
No. Once you've submitted the referral in your portal, your job is completely done. Our team contacts them, runs the review, and takes it all the way. You'll see the status update in your portal as it progresses.
What if the venue doesn't sign up — do I still get paid?
Your referral fee is paid when the venue converts to a customer — that's the trigger. The upside is that our close rate is strong, so most warm introductions do convert. You're not putting your time into thin air.
Who is this best suited for?
Anyone who has a natural connection to the hospitality industry. Ex-venue staff, food and beverage reps, accountants who work with hospo clients, commercial real estate agents, hospitality suppliers — anyone who already knows venue owners or has a reason to walk in the door.
How many referrals can I make?
As many as you like, anywhere in Australia. There's no cap, no territory restrictions, and no exclusivity. Every referral earns you a fee. Refer one venue or one hundred — entirely up to you.
What types of venues qualify?
Any independent hospitality venue — cafés, restaurants, pubs, bars, hotels, clubs. Ideally venues with an owner or manager who has buying authority. Chain venues and franchises usually don't qualify as decisions are made centrally.
