Refer & earn lets you share Kajabi with a friend using a personal referral link. When your friend subscribes to a Kajabi plan, you earn a payout.
Refer & earn is available to accounts on a referral-eligible plan that aren't in the Partner Program. If you don't see Refer & earn in the sidebar, your account doesn't qualify.
Note:
Refer & earn is separate from the Kajabi Partner Program, which has its own links, commissions, and terms. Learn about the Partner Program.
Copy a referral link
To copy your referral link, use the Refer & earn entry at the bottom of the sidebar.
From the Dashboard, find Refer & earn at the bottom of the sidebar, above Settings and Give feedback.
Click Get your link. If the card is collapsed into a menu item, click Refer & earn instead. The Share Kajabi with a friend window opens.
Click Copy link next to Your referral link. A Link copied message appears and the link is on your clipboard.
Paste the link wherever you share Kajabi, along with a clear statement that you're paid for referrals.
Warning:
FTC rules require you to disclose that Kajabi pays you everywhere you share your link. Read What do I need to disclose? in the FAQs before you share.
Collapse the Refer & earn card
The Refer & earn card shows the current offer and an Up to amount. To collapse the card, click the X in its top corner. It becomes a Refer & earn menu item above Settings, and your link is still one click away.
Note:
Kajabi remembers that you collapsed the card. The card also collapses on its own on mobile and on short browser windows, and that automatic collapse isn't saved.
What your friend gets
When your friend signs up through your link, they get 30% off Kajabi for 6 months. The Share Kajabi with a friend window shows the date the offer ends.
How you get paid
Kajabi pays Refer & earn payouts through PayPal, to the PayPal email saved on your Kajabi account. You earn one payout for each friend who subscribes through your link: their first month's payment. Kajabi sends it to you 30 days after they subscribe.
The payout is what your friend actually paid for the plan, after the discount and before tax. For an annual plan, the payout is one-twelfth of what they paid for the year. Payouts are in US dollars. The Up to amount on the card is the highest first payout possible: $349.
Add a PayPal email for payouts
To receive Refer & earn payouts, add a PayPal email to your Kajabi account. The Share Kajabi with a friend window doesn't ask for one, so we recommend adding it before you share your link. Kajabi can't send a payout without a PayPal email on file.
From the Dashboard, click Settings.
Under Account settings, click Account details.
Enter the email address for your PayPal account in the Affiliate paypal email field.
Click Save. Kajabi emails you to confirm the change, and future payouts go to that PayPal account.
Note:
Only the account owner can see and change the Affiliate paypal email field.
When a referral doesn't pay out
A referral through your Refer & earn link doesn't earn a payout in these cases:
Your friend's first payment is fully refunded.
Your Kajabi account is canceled when your friend's first payment goes through.
If PayPal can't accept a payout, or no PayPal email was on file when Kajabi sent it, the payout doesn't reach you. Add a working PayPal email in Account details, then contact Kajabi Support to have the payout sent again.
FAQs
How do I track my referrals?
Every successful signup sends you a confirmation email that tells you how much will be sent to your PayPal account.
What counts as a referral?
A referral counts when the friend who signed up through your link has an active subscription on Kajabi. The Terms and Conditions give the full definition of an active subscription.
Is there a limit to how much I can earn?
No. Kajabi doesn't cap the number of friends you can refer or the total you can earn.
What do I need to disclose?
Because Kajabi pays you for referrals, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requires you to disclose that payment everywhere you use your referral link. The FTC is the United States government agency that protects consumers from misleading, deceptive, and unfair business practices.
The disclosure must be clear and apparent, so readers shouldn't have to click a link to see it. If you don't follow the FTC's rules, both you and Kajabi could be subject to fines. Read the FTC endorsement guidelines for more information.
