At Freckle, we’ve always believed the best growth comes from the people who use the product every day. Real operators. Real results. Real conversations.
So instead of rushing into a traditional affiliate program, we took a different approach. One that’s simple, aligned, and built around the people who already know exactly what Freckle can unlock.
We’re launching our new user referral program, designed specifically for Freckle customers. It’s clean, simple, and genuinely rewarding.
Why we built it this way
Most referral and affiliate programs try to scale too quickly: too many partners, too many rules, not enough alignment. We wanted something that:
- Adds real value on both sides
- Helps bring in strong, high-signal customers
- Makes people genuinely excited to share Freckle
And the best advocates are the ones already inside the product. You’ve seen the impact firsthand; you know where the value is. It only makes sense that you benefit directly when others join.
How it works
Getting started takes less than a minute and everything happens inside your Freckle account.
- Log in to your Freckle workspace. You’ll find your referral hub in two places:
- The “Earn $50” button in the top-right corner next to your credit tracker
- The “Refer & earn” tab in the left-hand navigation
- Share your personal invite link with your network via social, email, iMessage, anywhere you communicate.
- When someone you refer signs up for a paid Freckle plan:
- You earn $50 (uncapped)
- They receive 1,000 bonus Freckle credits to immediately start experimenting
Your referral activity, total earnings, and pending rewards are all visible in your in-app widget. We’ll notify you each time someone you referred becomes a customer.
How you get paid
We want the person advocating for Freckle to be directly rewarded. That’s why payouts go straight to you, not a company or intermediary.
- Choose to receive rewards via PayPal or Venmo
- Your first payout is sent once your payment details are confirmed
- Every reward after that is automatically transferred, with nothing extra required
And while you’re rewarded with cash, your referrals receive bonus Freckle credits so both sides get something meaningful: you’re compensated for the introduction, and they get a head start inside the product.
Powered by Cello
The program runs on Cello, the platform behind referral programs for some of the fastest-growing SaaS teams. They handle the infrastructure so sharing Freckle stays quick, secure, and seamless.
tl;dr
- Share Freckle with your network
- They get access to powerful enrichment + 1,000 bonus credits
- You earn $50 per referral, deposited straight to PayPal or Venmo
If you’re already a fan of Freckle, this is the easiest way to help others discover it and get rewarded along the way.
Cool people, great data, and now: great rewards.
