Tell somebody.
You both get credits.
Two ways to share Soclo: invite a friend with your personal code for 50 free credits each, or join the affiliate programme to earn 20% commission for 12 months.
Invite a friend · 50 free credits each
Every Soclo account has a personal invite code (REF-…) in the app. When a friend enters it before subscribing and starts their first paid plan, you both get 50 bonus credits automatically.
Get your invite code →Affiliate programme · 20% for 12 months
Your customers get 20% off web plans and credit packs for 12 months from their first qualifying payment, including annual payments. SOCLO20 gives 20% off for three months, including the full first annual payment. Web discounts do not apply to app-store purchases.
Creators, agencies, consultants, and communities earn 20% for 12 months on every paid subscription and credit pack (from the amount the customer pays after discounts, including VAT, before payment or store fees), paid automatically on the 1st of each month (UK time) once £25 is payable.
Free to start. Starter and Pro monthly come with a 3-day free trial.
Three steps.
Then it just happens.
- 1
Find your invite code
Every Soclo account has a personal invite code (REF-…) in the app and in the web app. You send the link, or read the code out.
- 2
Your friend joins and starts a paid plan
They open the link, or type your code in the Have a code? box. Nothing happens at sign-up and nothing happens when a free trial starts.
- 3
You both get free credits
When their first paid period actually lands, the credits arrive for both of you, in both accounts, with no claiming and nothing to fill in.
The rule that matters
Nothing is granted at sign-up, and nothing is granted when a free trial begins. The credits arrive when your friend’s first paid period actually lands. If that payment is later refunded, the reward is reversed on both sides. Everything else about their account is theirs, and you never see it.
It is not only for businesses.
Soclo asks a new account whether they are a business, a creator, or somebody with something of their own to share. Your invite works for all three.
The other trades and shops you already talk to. If somebody has asked how you keep posting every week, this is the answer with something in it for both of you.
The people you make things with. Post the link, put it in your bio, say it on camera. Every friend who stays is credits you did not have to buy.
Anybody who has something of their own to share. A market stall, a cause, a side project, a person who keeps meaning to start.
“Have a code?”
The same box takes two kinds of code, in the app and in the web app. A friend’s invite code, so you both get 50 free credits. Or a free-credit code from Soclo, which you can redeem on its own if nobody invited you.
An invite from a friend
Use their code and you both get free credits once your first paid period lands. Better for both of you than starting cold.
A free-credit code from Soclo
Handed out directly. Redeem it in the same box and the credits land on your account.
Promote Soclo properly,
and get paid for it.
Creators, agencies, consultants, and communities earn 20% for 12 months on every paid subscription and credit pack their referred customers buy. Commission is taken from the amount the customer pays after discounts, including VAT, before payment or store fees, and it is reversed in proportion when a payment is refunded or charged back.
Approved affiliates connect a bank account in the dashboard. Payable earnings are paid automatically on the 1st of each month (UK time) once £25 is payable, after the 30-day hold.
What people ask about inviting.
When do the credits actually arrive?
When your friend’s first paid period lands. Not when they sign up, and not when a free trial starts. The trial has to convert into a real payment before anything is granted, and then both accounts are credited together.
What if my friend cancels or gets a refund?
If they cancel later, nothing is taken back. If that first payment is refunded, the reward is reversed on both sides, because the payment it was granted for did not happen. It is the one case where credits come back off, and it is the same rule for you and for them.
Is there a limit on how many friends I can invite?
You can invite as many people as you like. There is a fair-use limit on how many rewards one inviter earns in a month, so the programme stays a way of telling people about Soclo rather than a thing to farm. If you are running into it, talk to us — that is what the affiliate programme is for.
Where do I find my code?
Every account already has one. Yours is in the Soclo app under Invite a friend, and at app.soclo.app/referrals. It looks like REF-… and it is yours permanently; you do not have to ask for it or apply for anything.
What is the Have a code? box for?
Two things. A friend’s invite code goes in there, and so does a free-credit code from Soclo. Both are entered in the same place, in the app and in the web app.
Can I use a code and a referral at the same time?
One code applies to a new account. If somebody has invited you, use their invite code so you both get the credits; a Soclo free-credit code can be redeemed on its own if nobody has invited you.
Do I need a paid plan to invite somebody?
No. Every account gets an invite code, including a free one. The reward depends on your friend starting a paid period, not on what you are paying.
How is this different from the affiliate programme?
Inviting a friend pays 50 free credits to each of you when their first paid plan starts. The affiliate programme pays 20% commission for 12 months on paid subscriptions and credit packs, automatically on the 1st of each month (UK time) once £25 is payable. They are separate things.
Get Soclo.
Then tell one person.
Free to start, on the App Store, Google Play and the web. Your invite code appears in the app when codes open this week.
