Referrals
Know an expert? Bring them in.
We recruit doctors, lawyers, scientists, engineers, educators, artists and native speakers worldwide. Every expert gets a personal referral link. Share it, or share any role with your code, and follow your referrals from sign-up to active work in your dashboard.
How it works
- Sign in and open Referrals in your dashboard to get your link.
- Share it, use Refer on any role for a link to that role, or send an email invitation from your dashboard.
- See each person's stage: invited, signed up, applied, in vetting, active, paid.
Rewards
Referral rewards are shown on each role. When a role offers a referral reward, you will see it on the job page and on its card, and in your dashboard.
We do not pay for sign-ups alone. Rewards are tied to people who become active and are paid for their work.
Referral rules
Who can refer
- Any member with a confirmed email address and an account in good standing. You do not need to be working on a project yourself.
- Referring is always free. Vettedlance never charges experts any fee: not to join, apply, be vetted, be paid or refer others.
Who counts as your referral
- Someone new to Vettedlance who creates their account through your link, a role link with your code, or your email invitation, within 30 days of first opening it on the same device. Existing members cannot be referred.
- Each person has one referrer: the link they used when they signed up. Referrals cannot be added or backdated by hand.
- One link can bring up to 50 sign-ups in any rolling 30 days.
How rewards are earned and paid
- Rewards come only from paid work. Sign-ups, applications, interviews and unpaid trials do not earn anything.
- A first-work bonus, where a role or the program offers one, is credited once per person, when they are first paid.
- Rewards show as pending first, are reviewed by our team, then marked approved and paid in USD with regular payouts. If the underlying payment is reversed, the reward is cancelled.
- We may change rewards for future referrals. Rewards already approved are always paid.
- You are responsible for any tax due on referral rewards where you live.
Fair play
- No self-referrals, second accounts, fake or bought sign-ups, spam, or posing as Vettedlance staff or a recruiter.
- We look for patterns such as shared devices, shared connections and look-alike email addresses. Flagged referrals are reviewed by a person before any reward is paid.
- Breaking these rules cancels the rewards involved and can close the accounts involved.
- Invite only people you know. Each address can be invited once, and anyone can opt out of invitations with one click.
