Employer referral FAQ

What counts as an "employer referral"?

Any company that subscribes to a Charvak employer plan (Starter at $49/mo, Growth at $199/mo, or Enterprise at $999/mo). The referral must be new to Charvak — existing employer customers don't count.

How does the recurring commission work?

You earn a percentage of every invoice the employer pays. Year 1 at your tier's first-year rate. Year 2 onwards at your tier's recurring rate — for as long as they stay. If they upgrade from Starter to Growth, your commission scales with the higher subscription.

What if the employer cancels or refunds?

Commission is paid monthly, in arrears. If they cancel mid-month, you're paid for the days they were active. If they request a refund, the commission for that period is clawed back. This is standard for all recurring commissions.

How does tier escalation work?

Tier is based on total referrals over the last 12 months. Refer 3 employers → Pro tier (18% yr1 / 12% recurring). Refer 6 → Partner (22% yr1 / 15% recurring). Refer 11+ → Elite (25% yr1 / 18% recurring). Tier upgrades apply to all future commissions on all referrals — not retroactively.

Can I refer both employers and institutions?

Yes. The two programs stack. Your tier counts aggregate (refer 3 institutions + 3 employers = 6 referrals = Partner tier on both programs). But commissions are separate: institution = one-time (50% + 50%), employer = recurring forever.

What if I'm a staffing agency or recruiter?

You're eligible for the affiliate program which offers higher commission (20-30% first-year, 15-22% recurring) and co-marketing support. The employer referral program is designed for anyone with a warm introduction, not requiring an agency structure.

Is this open globally?

Yes. Payout via Razorpay (INR) or PayPal (USD, GBP, EUR, AED, SGD, AUD). Employer billing currencies include INR, USD, GBP, EUR, AED, SGD, AUD, JPY — your commission is calculated in INR then paid in your local currency.

Know a hiring manager?

One introduction could be worth $1,300+ over 5 years. Three introductions put you at Pro tier.
