Referral partner program

Your clients need payments. You know who to call.

Accountants, bookkeepers, web designers, IT shops, insurance agents, chambers, and consultants already have the trust of the business owners we want to meet. Make the introduction. We run the rate review, the paperwork, the install, and the support. You earn on the account for as long as it processes with us, and you never have to learn payments.

  • ✓One introduction is the whole job. A name and a phone number, or a statement.
  • ✓Paid every month the account processes, not a one-time finder's fee
  • ✓Your client gets our best: meet or beat in writing, free equipment offers, install and training, month to month
  • ✓Your name stays good. No leases, no exit fees, no surprises you have to answer for
✓6x Best of the 209 ✓Certified Clover Dealer ✓English and Spanish

How it works

Three steps, and only the first one is yours

1

You introduce

Send us the business name and a contact, or have the owner upload a statement on our rate review page and mention you. A warm hand-off by text or email is plenty.

2

We review and close

A person reads the statement, puts a meet-or-beat quote in writing, and walks the owner through the equipment offers. If staying put is the right answer, we say so.

3

You earn

When the account goes live, you get a residual every month it processes, with a report that shows each account you brought.

Who refers

The people business owners already listen to

Accountants, CPAs, bookkeepersYou see the processing fees on the books every month. You are the first to know when they are too high.
Web designers and marketing agenciesEvery site you build needs ordering, payments, or a gift card page. Send the payments part to us and keep the client.
IT and phone providersYou are already behind the counter. The register is the next thing they ask you about.
Insurance, payroll, and commercial real estateNew locations, new owners, and renewals are all moments a business picks a processor.
Chambers and associationsA member benefit that saves members money and comes with a person who shows up.
Banks and credit unionsFinancial institutions have their own programs with underwriting through our processor. See those here.
What you can tell your client

Everything on this list goes in writing

  • ✓We meet or beat their current rate, in writing, or tell them to stay where they are.
  • ✓Equipment comes under a free offer or at our cost. Never a lease.
  • ✓Processing is month to month with no early termination fee.
  • ✓We install and train in person across Northern California, remotely beyond it.
  • ✓Support is a person, in English or Spanish, and it is not a line item.
  • ✓The statement review is free and takes 30 seconds to start at evident.biz/rate-review.
What you get

A residual, a report, and a team that makes you look good

Monthly residual

A share of the processing revenue on every account you refer, for as long as it processes. The schedule is in the agreement, not on a web page.

Your accounts, visible

A monthly report with each account you brought and what it earned you.

Step up any time

If you find you like the conversations, the sales agent program is a phone call away, and your referred accounts come with you.

FAQ

Referral questions

A text or an email. "Call Evident, ask for the rate review, mention my name" is enough. We take it from there and keep you posted.

Then the review says so and nobody switches. We would rather tell your client to stay put than move them to something that is not better, because your name is on the introduction.

No. It is paid every month the account processes with us. One-time bonuses on certain products are on top.

A short referral agreement so we can pay you, and a W-9. No license, no training requirement, no quota.

Yes, and that is one of the best fits: a member benefit with a local team behind it. Call and we will work out the member benefit with you.

Know a business paying too much?

That's the whole job. Send them our way and get paid for it.
