Save a friend from a bad mechanic. Get thanked by a good one.
When a friend asks who you use (your mechanic, tutor, plumber), send them your link. If they become a customer, the business gives you the reward it promised.

Send your link to people you know. When someone you send becomes a customer, the business sees it was you.
What it looks like
Reply to the person who asked, in a direct message. Don't post your link to the whole group or send it to people you don't know.
The business name and link are invented samples.
How it works
-
Pick a business you already trust. Only recommend places you'd send your own family.
-
Get your own code and link. It's free.
-
When a friend asks, send it to them directly. One person, one message.
-
The business confirms your friend became a new customer, then pays you itself, usually by e-Transfer. You see where every introduction stands.
Your word is worth something
You already recommend places you like. On ClearCut Commissions, the business says up front what it gives when your recommendation brings it a new customer, and you see the same record it does. No chasing. No awkward asking.
Recommend to an audience?
Creators, newsletter writers, coaches and community leaders: post your link on your own page, channel or newsletter, and the business sees who you sent. You see the same record the business does: every introduction, where it stands, what's owed and when it's paid. No wondering whether your link counted.
Want your own terms? Talk to the business. It can set up a program just for you, with its own reward, and you both see it.
One rule: every time you post your link, say clearly in the post itself that the business rewards you, not hidden below "more". Canada's Competition Bureau expects it, and it keeps your audience's trust. Messages to people still go one to one.

Know a business that deserves more customers?
If your favourite mechanic, salon or tutor isn't on ClearCut Commissions yet, invite them. It's free for them until their first 3 confirmed new customers. Once they're set up, you can be the first to get their link. ClearCut Commissions doesn't pay anyone for inviting a business; you're rewarded only for customers you send.

You can recommend for a school, club or charity, and the reward goes to the group instead.

Straight answers
Does ClearCut Commissions pay me?
No. The business pays you directly. ClearCut Commissions takes no cut.
When is a reward owed?
When the business confirms your friend became a new customer. Sending a link isn't enough on its own.
Is this a side hustle?
No. It's a thank-you for recommendations you'd make anyway.
Does it cost anything?
No. It's free for you.
What about tax?
If one business pays you $500 or more in a year, it may ask for your legal name and mailing address for a tax slip.
Will ClearCut Commissions message my friends?
No. You send the message yourself. ClearCut Commissions does not contact the people you introduce.
