Flopix Referral Program: Code, Site Transfer and Finding Leads

Flopix Referral Program: Code, Site Transfer and Finding Leads

Referring people with Flopix isn't complicated: there are two ways to do it, and countless places to find people it will genuinely help. Whether you want to earn a little extra each month or turn it into a real business, here's the full rundown.

Method 1: the referral code

Every account has a unique referral code, available in your affiliate area. You share it (by message, on social media, in person). The person signs up with it, enjoys their first month free, and your commission kicks in when they pay for their subscription. It's the simplest method, ideal for reaching a wide network effortlessly.

Method 2: build the site, then transfer it

You can also build the site yourself for someone, then transfer it to them from your dashboard. It's especially handy for someone who lacks the time or the confidence: you present a ready-made site, and all they have to do is preview it and activate it. Here too, the commission goes to you. This method converts much better, because you remove the only real objection: "I don't have time to deal with it."

Which method should you choose?

  • The code works for broad sharing: social media, word of mouth, communities.
  • The transfer works for personalized support: a specific business owner you help from start to finish.
The two combine very well. Many affiliates share their code widely and build sites for their most promising contacts.

Where to find referrals

  • Your friends and family: a friend starting a business, a relative who runs a shop.
  • Businesses in your neighborhood: bakery, hair salon, auto repair shop, restaurant... many still don't have a website.
  • Your social media: a post, a story, a video, with your code front and center.
  • Your communities: nonprofits, clubs, local groups, professional networks.
  • The tradespeople you meet: plumbers, electricians, gardeners, trades where word of mouth is still king and a website makes all the difference.

The right approach

Don't "sell", help out. Show the result (a live website, a QR code ready to display in the window) instead of listing selling points. A shop owner who sees their own site in three minutes no longer needs convincing. Ask the right question: "Do you have a website for your business?" If the answer is no, you've found a potential referral.

How your commission is triggered

You earn the 30% commission when your referral pays for their subscription, and it's recurring: as long as they keep their site online, you keep earning. You track everything from your affiliate area: list of referrals, subscription status, accumulated commissions, and payout requests as soon as your balance reaches the threshold.

Consistency and patience

Referring rewards consistency. A recommendation here, a site built there, and your recurring income grows month after month. It's not a one-time win but an asset you build over time. The more you help the people around you, the harder your affiliate area works for you.

Your code is already waiting in your dashboard. Spot someone a website would help, and get started today.
