Yes! The Cohley Referral Program rewards you for connecting Cohley with brands and agencies you know. If you refer a brand or agency and they sign on as a paying Cohley customer, you get paid — and so do they.
What you earn
What you get depends on whether you’re also connected to a company that uses Cohley:
- If you also work with a brand or agency that’s a Cohley customer: $1,500 cash, paid to you personally, plus $5,000 in creator compensation credits applied to that brand or agency’s account.
- If you’re referring purely as a creator (not tied to a Cohley customer account): $2,000 cash, paid to you personally.
Either way, the brand or agency you refer gets $2,500 in Cohley credits to get started.
You’re referring brands and agencies — companies that might hire creators through Cohley — not other creators.
Who can refer
Any creator located in the United States or Canada can participate.
What makes a referral qualify
You earn your reward once the company you referred becomes a paying Cohley customer and fits Cohley’s Ideal Customer Profile. The referred company must:
- Sell physical products to consumers in the U.S. and/or Canada — or be a marketing agency serving companies that do;
- Generate $10M+ in annual revenue;
- Employ more than 20 full-time staff;
- Not be in an industry Cohley doesn’t partner with (e.g., CBD, adult entertainment, weapons);
- Be reachable at a business email address.
It also must not be a current or former Cohley customer, must not have engaged with the Cohley team in the past 12 months, and must purchase within 6 months of your referral. When you submit, Cohley confirms whether the company qualifies.
How to refer
Submit your referral through Cohley’s official referral form at cohley.com/refer. Cohley reviews it and lets you know whether the company qualifies. (Submitting a referral doesn’t guarantee a reward — rewards go only to qualifying referrals.)
When you get paid
Once the company you referred becomes a paying customer, your cash reward is issued within 60 days. Payment is made to you personally and may be taxable — Cohley may ask for a W-9 before paying.
Good to know
- First referral counts — if more than one person refers the same company, only the first submission is eligible.
- Disclose any business relationship you have with the company you’re referring when you submit.
