Wrong feature for a corporate programme. Let's talk structure.
Scoped to paid nonprofit plans, not corporate buyers.
Refer & Earn pays 20% of subscription fees for 12 months and is stated as available on paid nonprofit plans. For a company, the useful conversation is programme structure and employee seats — not referral revenue.

What Refer & Earn is
Refer & Earn is the ImpactMatrix referral programme, available on paid nonprofit plans. A referring organization earns 20% of the referred organization's subscription fees for 12 months, tracked as Lifetime, Pending and Paid out, and paid through Stripe after connecting a bank account. Bank details are used only for Refer & Earn payouts.
What you can do
Real button and tab names — the module is the same for everyone; what you do with it is not.
Share it where you already talk to peer organizations.
For organizations arriving through the volunteer side.
Send it to the director you have already had this conversation with.
Payouts through Stripe; bank details used only for this.
Why this matters for your organization type
The problem
CSR teams evaluate features that were designed for a different buyer and lose weeks doing it.
What the platform does
A referring organization earns 20% of the referred organization's subscription fees for 12 months, tracked as Lifetime, Pending and Paid out, and paid through Stripe after connecting a bank account. Bank details are used only for Refer & Earn payouts.
What you walk away with
A clear scope statement, and a pointer to what actually applies to a corporate programme.
Not an affiliate scheme bolted on
Generic affiliate tools pay strangers for signups. This pays organizations for bringing partners they already coordinate with onto the same network — which also makes the platform work better for the referrer. Availability is stated for paid nonprofit plans.
Use ImpactMatrix when
You contribute goods, capacity or employee time and need documentation you can report on.
Use something else when
You need payroll giving, matching-gift automation or grants administration.
Where to go next
Same module, different job. Start with the org hub if you are still scoping.
Questions
Can a business earn referral revenue?
The programme is stated as available on paid nonprofit plans. Confirm on View Plans if it matters — but it is not the mechanism a corporate programme should be built around.
Can we sponsor nonprofit subscriptions instead?
That is a much better fit for a CSR programme than referral revenue, and it is worth discussing directly. Contact sales rather than assuming a structure exists.
What does this cost a business?
Business plans are priced per seat: $9.99/seat up to 100 seats, $5.00/seat up to 500, $2.00/seat up to 2,500 and $1.00/seat up to 10,000, with Fortune 1000 by custom quote. Every seat is invitable — none is reserved for the admin — and you invite employees from your seat allotment. Start with the 30-day free trial — no credit card — and confirm the tier that fits your programme before committing.
Can organizations earn revenue for referrals?
Yes. On paid ImpactMatrix nonprofit plans, Refer & Earn pays 20% of a referred organization's subscription fees for 12 months. Earnings show as Lifetime, Pending and Paid out totals, and payouts are made through Stripe once a bank account is connected.
