If you're a Monochrome brand partner, you already know that sharing your referral code can earn you money. But how exactly does the referral process work? Whether you're new to the program or looking to understand the fine print, this guide will walk you through the entire referral flow—from sharing your code to getting paid.

1. What Is a Referral Code?

As a brand partner, you’re given a unique referral code that can be shared with friends, family, or followers. When someone uses your code to download the Monochrome app , both you and the referee get rewarded. Your referee will get referral credit of the current advertised amount and you'll get the rate negotiated with Monochrome paid to your bank account per download. There is an additional rate paid per user if your referee takes their first trip within the partnership deal

Customising your referral code

As a brand ambassador, you have the unique opportunity to personalise your referral code. You can choose any combination of 7 characters, using letters (A–Z, a–z) and numbers (0–9) — no special characters or spaces.
This is a one-time choice, so make it something memorable or personal, like a variation of your name or nickname.

Example:
If your name is Amy Johnson, you could choose: AmyJo01, AJpromo, or JoinAJ1.

Once set, your code cannot be changed, so choose carefully!

2. How Much Do You Earn Per Referral?

Each successful referral earns you:

• Specified advertised rate for your city credited to your Monochrome account, and

• Specified rate credited to your bank account (after they complete their first ride).

Bonus tip: From time to time, Monochrome runs limited-time campaigns that offer double rewards, so keep an eye on those announcements.

3. The Step-by-Step Process

Here’s how the referral process works from start to finish:

✅ Step 1: Share Your Code

You can find your referral code in the app under the "Share My Code" section on your Partner Dashboard or 'earn free rides' section. Copy the code and share it via social media, WhatsApp, email, or text.

🧍 Step 2: Referee Downloads the App

The person you referred enters your referral code during sign-up while installing the app. This will complete a 'sign up' referral.

🚗 Step 3: Referee Completes a Ride

Once the referee books and completes their first Monochrome ride, this will complete the 'first ride' referral.

🎉 Step 4: You Get Paid

The reward will be credited to your Monochrome balance (visible on your dashboard), typically immediately, with a max of 24 hours after the completed ride or a sign up.

4. Tracking Your Progress

You can track:

• Total downloads

• First rides referees

• Conversion rate

• Total earned revenue (including bonuses)

All of this is viewable on your "Our Partnerships" analytics screen, giving you real-time performance insights.

5. What Doesn’t Count as a Referral?

A referral may not qualify if:

• Your referral code wasn’t entered by the referee.

• The referee had already signed up before.

• Multiple referrals come from suspicious sources (spam or bots).

6. When Do Payouts Happen?

You’ll be credited based on the deal in place. This could be monthly to your bank account. However ride credit earned will be sent to your Monochrome account almost instantly

7. Stay Compliant

Avoid misleading messaging, spamming users, or using paid ads with Monochrome’s brand name. Stick to ethical promotion, and always review the Referral Policy in your partner dashboard.

🚀 Final Thoughts

The Monochrome referral system is designed to reward you for helping others experience a smarter way to ride. The more value you offer through your promotions, the more you earn. It’s simple, transparent, and built to grow with you.
