How it works

Four steps, no paperwork

The programme runs from your normal EDZNET client area, so there’s nothing extra to sign up to.

Activate

Log in (or create a free account) and switch on your affiliate account. You get a unique referral link straight away.

Share

Put your link or one of our ready-made banners on your site, in a blog post, a video description or an email.

They buy hosting

Visitors who arrive through your link are tracked to you for up to 90 days, so they don’t have to buy straight away. You’ll see clicks, sign-ups and commission in your dashboard.

Get paid

After 60 days, commission on accounts that are still active clears. Once you reach the minimum, request a payout.

What you could earn

Work out your commission

Our hosting is billed annually, so commission arrives in one go on each referral’s yearly invoice.

Payouts

Clear rules, paid properly

Here’s exactly how commission becomes money in your account.

How commission clears

  • Commission shows as pending as soon as your referral pays.
  • After 60 days it clears, as long as the account is still active. Cancelled accounts don’t pay out.
  • If an order is fully refunded, its commission is reversed.
  • Commission applies to hosting plans. Domain registrations aren’t included.

How you get paid

  • Request a payout from your dashboard once your cleared balance reaches R1,000 (about £50 for GBP accounts).
  • Paid by EFT to a UK or South African bank account, or by PayPal.
  • You earn in your account’s currency, Rand or pounds. A referral paying in the other currency is converted at our current exchange rate.
  • Your dashboard shows clicks, sign-ups, pending and cleared commission at any time.

FAQ

Affiliate questions, answered

The full rules are in section 14 of our Terms of Service. Anything else? Ask our team.

Does it cost anything to join?
No. The programme is free, and you don’t need to buy anything. You just need an EDZNET client account to activate it.
How much commission do I earn?
5% of what your referral pays for their hosting plan, and again each year they renew. Our plans are billed annually, so a referral on Business Plus pays £180 for the year and earns you £9.00.
Why is there a 60-day wait?
It covers the period where an order might be cancelled or refunded. After 60 days, commission on accounts that are still active clears and becomes available to withdraw.
What’s the minimum payout?
R1,000 for Rand accounts, or about £50 for pound accounts. Once your cleared balance reaches it, a “Request Withdrawal” button appears in your dashboard.
How will I be paid?
By EFT to a UK or South African bank account, or by PayPal. When you request a payout, we’ll confirm your details before sending the money.
I’m in the UK. Can I refer South African customers, or the other way round?
Yes. You earn in your own account’s currency, and a referral who pays in the other currency is converted at our current exchange rate.
Can I refer myself or my own business?
No. Commission is for introducing new customers, so orders on your own account or accounts you control don’t qualify. Opening extra accounts to earn commission or get discounts you wouldn’t otherwise qualify for is a breach of our terms.
Is this the same as the reseller programme?
No. As an affiliate, your referrals become our customers and we bill them. With the reseller programme you buy hosting at a discount and bill your own clients.
