Referring a friend to Keepr
Tell a fellow freelancer about Keepr and you both get a free month of Pro - no cap on how many friends you can refer.
Keepr has a built-in refer-a-friend program. Share your unique link with another freelancer, sole trader, or small business owner. When they sign up through your link and go on to upgrade to Keepr Pro, you both get a free month of Pro. There's no cap on how many friends you can refer.
Where to find your referral link
- Open Account from the menu under your name in the top-right.
- Click the Referrals tab. The URL is Account → Referrals.
- Your link sits at the top of the tab - it looks like
keepr.co.uk/r/abc23xyz. Click Copy to put it on your clipboard.
How it works
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. You share your link | Send it to a friend by email, text, WhatsApp, or social. Anything works. |
| 2. They sign up through it | When they click your link, the code rides along with their session. They register a Keepr account as normal - no code to type in. |
| 3. They upgrade to Pro | They try Keepr, and when they subscribe to Pro their first payment is what earns the reward. |
| 4. You both earn a free month of Pro | The moment that first payment clears, two free months of Pro are issued - one for you, one for them. |
What counts as a qualifying payment
The qualifying event is their first payment for Keepr Pro. Signing up alone doesn't earn it, and only the first qualifying payment counts - later ones don't add more.
What you actually get
One free month of Keepr Pro per qualifying referral. What that looks like depends on where you are today:
| Your current plan | What happens when a referral qualifies |
|---|---|
| Free | Your account flips to Pro for a month, immediately. After that month, you go back to Free unless another referral has queued up behind it. |
| 14-day trial | The reward sits in a queue. When your trial ends, instead of dropping to Free, you get the free month of Pro. |
| Paying Pro subscriber | We credit £9 against your next Stripe invoice - so your next month is effectively free. Your subscription continues as normal. |
Worked example - three friends, three free months
You're on Free and you refer three friends. All three sign up and go on to subscribe to Pro. Three rewards land on your account. The first flips you to Pro for a month right away. The other two queue behind it and start automatically as each month ends - no downgrade in between. You get three straight months of Pro, then drop back to Free unless you've earned more or subscribed.
Tracking your referrals
Once you have at least one referral, the Referrals tab shows a stats panel with four counters:
| Counter | What it means |
|---|---|
| Total Referrals | Everyone who's signed up through your link. |
| Pending | Signed up, but haven't upgraded to Pro yet. |
| Rewarded | Reached the qualifying payment - reward issued. |
| Months Earned | Total free months credited to you across all referrals. |
Below the counters you'll see each referral listed with the friend's first name (or a masked version of their email), the date they signed up, and a status badge - Pending, Rewarded, or Expired.
Keeping it fair
We check for self-referrals automatically - duplicate sign-ups from the same household, shared payment details, that sort of thing. If a referral trips those checks it's marked Expired on your tab and no reward is issued. Genuine friend-to-friend referrals won't see this.
You'll get two emails per referral: a heads-up when your friend signs up, and a confirmation when their first qualifying payment clears and your free month is applied (or queued).
