This isn't your typical affiliate deal
We built this for people who sell to dealers — not bloggers writing review articles.
$250 cash, not credits
No invoice credits. No BS. $250 per dealership, paid in real cash via PayPal or Stripe. That's 2.5x what others offer — and it's actual money.
Total discretion
No public affiliate links. You get a private promo code to drop naturally on calls or in texts. Nobody needs to know.
Automated tracking
Your dashboard tracks everything in real time. When a dealer upgrades their Stripe plan, your commission is locked automatically.
Three steps. That's it.
Get your code
Sign up and instantly receive a private, trackable promo code you can use however you want.
Drop the offer
Tell GMs your code unlocks $500 in free AI tools, priority support, and a waived setup fee. They get a real discount — you get $250 cash. Win-win.
Get paid
When they convert to a paid plan — even from freemium — your commission automatically hits your dashboard.
Software dealers actually want
You're not pitching vaporware. This is the modern, fast alternative to DealerCenter, Frazer, and DealerSocket — and dealers can start free.
Why it converts

The deal
Your commission
cash bounty
every time they convert
Earn a flat $250 cash bounty the moment your referred dealership processes their first payment. No caps, no limits, no waiting for recurring revenue to trickle in.
Do the math: Refer just 4 dealers in a month and that's $1,000 in your pocket. Ten dealers? $2,500. There's no ceiling.
