Referral Program
TL;DR — A referral program rewards an existing publisher for inviting new publishers to join a platform — earning a bonus when the person they referred becomes an active partner. It’s separate from promoting advertiser offers and is run by the platform itself. On Involve Asia, publishers earn RM5 for every person they refer who joins and completes at least one sale conversion within 14 days of account approval.
What Is a Referral Program?
A referral program is an incentive scheme where an existing user earns a reward for successfully introducing someone new to a platform. In the context of affiliate marketing, this usually means an existing publisher inviting others to sign up and start earning, with the platform paying out a bonus when the new publisher becomes active.
Referral programs differ from standard affiliate promotions. Rather than promoting an advertiser’s product or service to an audience, the publisher is promoting the platform itself — specifically, the opportunity to join as a publisher and earn commissions. The referral is tracked through a unique link generated by the existing publisher, just like any other affiliate link.
The qualifying condition for a referral reward typically requires the new publisher to take a meaningful action — not just sign up, but actually start earning — to confirm they are a genuinely active partner rather than an idle registration.
The Referral Program on Involve Asia
Involve Asia runs its own publisher referral program as an offer within the platform. Publishers can find it by logging into their dashboard and searching for “Involve Asia Publisher Referral Program” in the Advertiser Directory, then generating a referral link through the Promote button.
Publishers earn RM5 for each referral that results in at least one sale conversion within 14 days of account approval. Both the referrer and the referee receive RM5 once this condition is met. Referral rewards are paid monthly and are tracked in the publisher’s Conversion Report. If the referee’s conversions are later rejected, the referral bonus may be clawed back. Ready-made visual assets and banners for the referral program are available to download from the dashboard.
