Cobbled Works Referral Network
Referral Partner
Agreement
An agreement between Cobbled Works and a professional who introduces business owners to us. It fixes what you earn, how an introduction is registered and protected, what we owe you in return, and what the owner you introduce gets because the introduction came from you.

Version2.4
EffectiveAugust 12, 2026
Prepared byCobbled Works
The parties
This is the document, not a summary of one. Both sides are welcome to have counsel read it before anyone signs.
Before you read the rest
The agreement in one page
The sections that follow are the ones that govern. This page is here so you can see the shape of the deal before you read them.
- 01
You introduce owners you actually know
No quotas, no territory to defend, no minimum. You decide who is a fit and you decide when. Every introduction goes in under your referral code, which is the record of who gets paid.
- 02
You get paid three times on every one that closes
A close bonus, $100 on a website build and $50 on a standalone tracking deal. Then 5% of the build fee, paid piece by piece as the client pays it off. Then 10% of that client's monthly service for as long as they stay with us. Not for two years, for as long as they stay. The rates are the same whether or not you sign; what signing does is lock them, so they cannot be changed on you for the term. Schedule A is the whole card.
- 03
A registration is grounded in a conversation that happened
Every registration holds for 30 days. At day 30 we check in together, and where something real is happening it can be extended another 30. That extension is our call, made with a senior Cobbled Works person on the conversation, not something that renews on its own. We pay for what occurred, not for what someone intends to do.
- 04
We answer for our end, in numbers
Written confirmation of your registration in 1 business day. A call to the owner in 1 business day. The outcome of that first call visible to you within 5 business days. Your introduction stays out of our own outbound marketing the whole time it is registered.
- 05
The owner you introduce gets something real
A 30-day money-back guarantee on the build and 90 days to send edits, one at a time, because you sent them. Their invite carries your name. That is what your word buys them, and it is why an introduction from you is worth making.
- 06
What you have earned survives everything
If the program changes, or either of us walks away, every referral that already closed keeps paying on the terms it was stamped with, for as long as that client keeps paying us. A program change reaches only referrals closing after it takes effect, and only after 30 days' notice. Your rate schedule is locked for the term. Nothing here expires quietly and nothing renews quietly.
- 07
This is a referral agreement and nothing else
No fee to join. Nobody earns a cent for recruiting anybody. There is no downline, no team to build, no inventory, and no purchase of any kind. Every dollar paid traces to one business owner buying one real piece of work.

Referral Partner Agreement
What this agreement is
1.1
This agreement is between Cobbled Works ("we," "us," "our") and the person or business named on the cover page (the "Partner," "you," "your"). It takes effect on the date both sides sign it and replaces the click-through Program Terms for you. Where this agreement and the published Program Terms say different things, this agreement wins.
1.2
You introduce business owners to us. When one of them becomes a paying client, you are paid a flat bonus for the close, a share of their build fee as they pay it, and 10% of their monthly service for as long as they are a client. Nothing is owed until that client's first payment clears, and every percentage is charged against a payment we have already received, so the program is funded by the business it creates and can never owe out more than came in. That is the whole arrangement.
1.3
The words we useAn Introduction is an owner you have already spoken with about us. A Nomination is a name you have given us before that conversation happened. A Registration is either one, logged under your referral code. A Qualified Referral is a registration that turned into a paying client under section 4.2. The Build Fee is the one-time build or set-up charge on that client's plan, and a plan sold without one has a Build Fee of zero. Where the client pays it in interest-free installments, your percentage is charged against each installment as we receive it rather than against the whole figure up front. Client Revenue is the recurring subscription money we actually receive from that client, less sales tax we collect, refunds, chargebacks, and bad debt. It does not include the Build Fee, which is rewarded by your percentage instead. The Service Share is 10% of Client Revenue, and it runs for as long as that client keeps paying us. It has no end date and no window.
1.4
Signing does not raise your rate, it locks itSigning does not buy a better rate, and we will not pretend otherwise. Anyone may refer a business to us with nothing signed at all and be paid exactly what Schedule A pays: the same close bonus, the same 5% of the Build Fee, the same 10% of Client Revenue for as long as that client stays. What executing this agreement buys is that those rates stop being changeable. The published program can be changed at our discretion on 30 days' notice; the rate schedule in this agreement is locked for its term under 13.1, the attribution rules in section 6 are locked under 13.3, and every referral that has already closed keeps paying under 13.4 even if the program ends entirely. That certainty is the consideration for the obligations you take on here, principally registration under section 6, non-circumvention under 9.4, and confidentiality under section 11. A referrer who never signs is not a lesser participant and is not paid a penny less; they are simply on a program we could change, and you are not.
1.5
Your existing referrals come with youQualified Referrals that closed before you signed this agreement count toward your recognition level from the moment you sign. If six of your referrals had closed in the trailing 12 months on your signing date, you begin at Level 2. Nothing you did before the signature is discarded. Your level is recognition for volume and carries no rate: every signed Partner is paid the same Schedule A, so a first referral and a fiftieth earn at exactly the same rate. Referrals that closed before you signed keep the terms they were stamped with when they closed.
What you do
2.3
Introduce owners you have a real relationship with, and register each one under your code before we speak with them. That is the only thing this agreement asks of you.
2.3
Tell people you are paid for the introduction. The FTC requires it and so do we. Something as simple as "I get paid if you sign up with them" is enough. Section 9 has the detail.
2.3
You have no quota, no minimum, no territory obligation, and no duty to introduce anyone at all. You can go a year without registering a name and this agreement is still in force.
2.4
You cannot quote a price, promise a delivery date, sign anything, or otherwise commit us. Send pricing questions to us and we will answer them directly with the owner. Our published pricing at cobbledworks.com/pricing is the only price list, and it is the one we quote from.
2.5
Check that this fits your own agreements first. If you have an employer, a broker, a franchisor, or a compliance officer, make sure participating is allowed before you register anyone. We have a one-page summary you can hand them.
What we do
These are commitments, not intentions. If we miss one, tell us and we will make it right.
3.1
We confirm every registration back to you in writing within 1 business day, so there is never a question of whether a name is on the books.
3.2
We call the owner you introduced within 1 business day of the registration, and you can see the outcome of that first contact within 5 business days.
3.3
While a registration is live, we keep that business out of our own outbound marketing. We will not call on a name you brought us as though we found it ourselves.
3.4
You get a running statement, per referral: status, the date it qualified, the amount pending, the next payout date, and paid to date. It is built to be reconciled by a bookkeeper.
3.5
We tell you when we are near capacity. The studio builds about 25 sites a week without the work slipping, and we cap intake before quality drops. You will hear about it from us, not from a client waiting.
3.6
We do the work we sold. Every owner you introduce is our client and is treated like one, whether it is their first month or their eleventh.
| What we owe you | By when |
|---|---|
| Written confirmation that your registration is on the books | One business day |
| First call to the owner you introduced | One business day |
| The outcome of that first call, visible to you | Five business days |
| Close bonus and build-fee share, after the referral qualifies | 30 days |
| Service share, quarterly, then monthly once you have 4 | Within 30 days of period end |
| Build capacity we can hold without quality slipping | About 25 a week |
What you earn
4.1
Every qualified referral pays you three things: a flat close bonus, 5% of that client's Build Fee, and 10% of Client Revenue for as long as that client stays. The build-fee percentage applies to the Build Fee and to nothing else, so a plan sold without one pays no percentage and still pays the close bonus and the service share in full. The close bonus is $100 on a website build and $50 on a standalone tracking deal, which is the only place the deal type changes what you earn. Schedule A holds the rates. They are the same as the published program's; what section 13 adds is that they cannot be changed on you for the term.
4.2
When a referral qualifiesA registration becomes a Qualified Referral when all of this is true: the business was new to us, meaning not already a lead in our records in the 12 months before your registration; the business came in under your code, or named you when they registered; they signed and paid their first invoice; and 30 days passed after that payment with no refund or cancellation. Payment is the trigger, not signature.
4.3
Your level is recognition, counted from your qualified referrals over the trailing 12 months, and it does not change what you are paid. Every signed Partner earns the same Schedule A rates on every qualified referral. That count includes referrals that closed before you signed this agreement (1.5). There is no ceiling on the top level and no cap on what you can earn in a year.
4.4
The service share is 10% of that client's monthly payments, every month, for as long as they remain a client. There is no window and no step-down. It does not end on a date. It stops when they stop paying us, and it is only ever calculated on money we actually kept. If they leave and come back later under a new agreement, that is a new referral question under section 6, not a resumption of this one.
4.5
There is no fee to join, no purchase requirement, no minimum, and no charge of any kind to you under this agreement.
4.6
Nothing is owed until a customer has paidThis program is self-funded. No payment of any kind, bonus, percentage, or service share, comes due before we have received that client's first payment. Meetings, intros, and proposals that do not convert cost you nothing and cost us nothing, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find it in the fine print. It is also why we can promise the payouts above without a clause that lets us pull them back later.
4.7
If eighteen months pass with nothing closing, only the recognition level resetsIf no referral of yours qualifies for 18 consecutive months, your recognition level returns to Level 1. Because level carries no rate (4.3), this changes nothing about what you are paid, then or later. You remain a Partner, this agreement stays in force, your registrations stay yours, and every share already running keeps paying on the terms it was stamped with. One qualifying referral starts your count again in the ordinary way. We will write to you before a reset takes effect, not after.
4.8
Someone else may be paid on the same client, and it never comes out of yoursA Cobbled Works sales representative may be compensated on a client you introduced, under a separate agreement with us. That is our cost and it is calculated separately from yours. Nothing they earn reduces your close bonus, your build-fee share, or your service share by a cent, and no arrangement we make with anyone else can change what Schedule A pays you while this agreement stands. You are still the only referrer on that client under 6.7.
How and when you get paid
5.1
The close bonus pays within 30 days of the referral qualifying, by ACH or another method we name. Where the Build Fee is paid in installments, your 5% rides each one and is included in your next scheduled payout after we receive it, so your share of a build arrives across the same months the client is paying for it. No minimum, no waiting for a quarter to close.
5.2
The service share batches quarterly, within 30 days after each quarter ends. Once you have 4 qualified referrals it moves to monthly and stays there. We can improve that schedule on notice, never worsen it during the term.
5.3
Minimum payout is $50, and it applies only to the service share, never to a close bonus or a build-fee share. Anything smaller rolls to the next payout and always clears by year end.
5.4
Payout setup happens when there is money to send, not beforeSigning this agreement is complete in itself: you are a Partner and earning from the moment it is executed, with nothing further to submit. Bank and tax details are collected once, at the point your first commission actually becomes payable, through our payment processor's own onboarding. We will tell you the amount waiting before we ask. Until that setup is finished your balance sits and waits for you, and none of it expires while it waits.
5.5
The 60-day take-backIf a client you referred refunds, charges back, or cancels within 60 days of their deal closing, the close bonus and build-fee share tied to them come out of your next payout. We offset. We will not send you a bill. After day 60 that money is yours and no cancellation reaches back for it.
5.6
Your tax identification number does not live with usThe processor collects your W-9 information directly as part of that onboarding and holds it under its own controls. We do not ask you for a Social Security number or an EIN, and we do not store one.
Registration, attribution, and the honesty standard
This is the section that protects both of us. It exists so that a good-faith introduction is safe, and so that no one can lock up a market they have no relationship with.
6.1
The code is the recordEvery introduction is registered under your referral code, with a timestamp. The code and that timestamp decide who is paid. Nothing else does, and nothing else has to.
6.2
The relationship standardA registration has to rest on a direct personal or business relationship between you and the owner, or an officer of the business. You affirm that name by name when you register it, and you sign the affirmation once in Schedule C. We take you at your word on it and we do not audit your relationships.
6.3
We pay for what happenedThe principle this whole section hangs off: we reward what occurred, not what someone intends to do. A conversation that already took place is the strongest thing you can show us, and it is what an extension rests on.
6.4
Every registration holds for 30 daysA registration holds for 30 days from the date you log it. That is true whether you have already spoken with the owner or not. Where you have spoken with them, keep a one-line record of it, the date and roughly what was said, because that record is what an extension rests on. Schedule B is the form, and one line per name is genuinely enough.
6.5
At day 30 we talk, and an extension is a decisionAt day 30 we check in together. Where you can show real movement on that name, a conversation held, a meeting set, a reply received, the registration can be extended another 30 days. That extension is our decision and it is made in coordination with a senior Cobbled Works person, on a real conversation with you, not by a form. Progress is what it rests on. Nothing extends on its own, and no extension is ever granted across a whole list at once.
6.6
A list is handled name by nameA submission that reads as a market list rather than a set of relationships, for example every business of one type in a region, is accepted per name, each on its own 30 days. That is not a penalty. It is simply what the record supports. Any name on it that you have actually spoken with becomes an Introduction the moment you log the conversation, which is what gives that name something to extend on.
6.7
One referrer per client, everNo splits, no shared credit, no second claim after the fact. A client belongs to the first registration that qualifies.
6.8
If two people claim the same owner, the owner decidesWe ask them once, plainly, and their answer is final. We will not weigh whose relationship is stronger, and we will never put you in the position of having to prove yours.
6.9
Groups and networks are a separate conversationA franchise system, a multi-location operator, a buying group, a distributor network, an association, or any introduction that would reach more than one business at once is not registered under this section. Bring it to us early and it goes to a strategic partnership conversation. If it goes ahead, it is written into its own signed schedule, which may carry a different rate, a different window, and different protections. Registering the member businesses one at a time is not a way around this.
6.10
Expiry is not a punishmentWhen a window closes, the name simply comes off your registration. You can register it again the day a real conversation happens. Nothing about an expired registration counts against you or affects your level.
6.11
No self-dealingYou cannot register yourself, a business you own or control, or an arrangement where any part of what you are paid goes back to the client. No fake signups, no incentivized ones.
6.12
Where these rules do not reachSomething will come up that this section does not cover. When it does we decide it in reasonable judgment and we put the reasoning to you in writing, with the records on the table. We would rather explain a decision than defend one.
| Registration type | What it rests on | Window | At the end of it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Introduction | A conversation you have already had with the owner | 30 days | Check-in. The conversation on record is the strongest case for another 30. |
| Nomination | A name given before that conversation happened | 30 days | Check-in. Real progress can earn another 30, at our discretion. |
| Group or network | A franchise, chain, buying group, or association | By review | A strategic partnership conversation and its own signed schedule. |
What the owner you introduce receives
Your name goes on this. So the owner gets something they would not have gotten by finding us on their own.
7.1
A 30-day money-back guarantee on the build. Within reason and with sensible stipulations, but real: if we built something and it is not worth what they paid, they are not stuck with it.
7.2
90 days to submit edits, one at a time, instead of the standard finite window. They get to keep shaping the work while they live with it.
7.3
Their invite carries your name. Someone sent this to you, and we say who. Putting your name on a recommendation is not a small thing and the invite should honor it rather than hide it.
7.4
To be plain about what is being introduced: the website is a paid build the owner owns. We show people what their site could look like before they spend a dollar. We do not give the site away, and nothing in this agreement should be presented as though we might.
What this is not
8.1
You are a referrer. Not an employee, agent, contractor, partner, franchisee, or representative of Cobbled Works. You have no duties, no schedule, and no authority to bind us.
8.2
This is not a multi-level program and it will never become one. Nobody earns anything for recruiting another member. There is no downline, no team to build, no level to unlock, no volume you have to buy, and no compensation of any kind that comes from anything other than one business owner paying us for real work.
8.3
It is not a franchise, not a distributorship, not an investment, and not a security. Joining costs nothing and there is nothing to buy at any point.
Disclosure and ground rules
9.1
Disclose that you are paid, every time you recommend us: a post, a group chat, an email, a conversation over a counter. Do not make claims about what we do beyond what our own materials say.
9.2
In a regulated field, tell the owner you may be paid before the introduction, and follow whatever your license or your compliance team requires on top of that.
9.3
No spam. No bulk unsolicited email or texts on our behalf, nothing that would run afoul of CAN-SPAM or the TCPA, and no automated outreach that violates a platform's terms of service. Introduce people you know, the way you would introduce any two people.
9.4
Do not post your code on coupon or deal sites, do not advertise against our trademarks, and do not present yourself as our staff. Credits from public posting do not count.
9.5
Breaking 9.1 through 9.4 can cost you unpaid amounts and this agreement. We will tell you what we saw and give you a chance to answer before we act on it.
Taxes
10.1
What we pay you is income and the taxes on it are yours. Before your first payout you complete a Form W-9 through our payment processor's onboarding, and you consent to our filing 1099 forms where required. That threshold is why the paperwork exists at all: past $600 in a year the IRS requires it of us. Without a valid taxpayer identification number on file with the processor, federal law requires 24% to be withheld. We never hold your taxpayer identification number ourselves (5.6).
Confidentiality
11.1
Anything you learn about our clients or prospects through this program is confidential, and is yours to use for this program and nothing else. The same runs the other way: what you tell us about your book stays with us.
Term, review, and renewal
12.1
This agreement runs for the term stated on the cover page, starting on the date both sides sign.
12.2
The cover page also names a review date. On or near it we sit down, look at what actually happened, and either renew, adjust, or part as friends. Nothing here renews silently and nothing expires silently.
12.3
Either side can end this agreement on 30 days' written notice, for any reason or none. Section 13 says what happens to your money when that occurs.
What is locked, and what survives
These 6 hold for the whole term and cannot be changed for you without both signatures. They are the reason this is paper and not a webpage.
13.1
The rate schedule is fixedSchedule A as it stands on the day you sign is locked for the term. A program-wide change that lowers rates does not reach you while this agreement stands.
13.2
The service share is fixed, and it has no endEvery qualified referral pays 10% of Client Revenue for as long as that client keeps paying us, exactly as written here. The share may not be shortened, capped, stepped down, or ended by us, no window may be introduced, and Client Revenue may not be redefined, for the life of this agreement.
13.3
Attribution is fixedSection 6 is the attribution rule for your registrations, including the 30-day window and the one-referrer-per-client rule. It does not move under you mid-term.
13.4
Closed referrals keep payingIf either of us walks away, or the program changes, or the program ends entirely, every referral that already closed keeps paying on the terms in force when it closed, for as long as that client keeps paying us. Leaving costs you nothing you have already earned.
13.5
Live registrations run out their clockA registration that is live when notice is given keeps its remaining window. If that name closes inside it, it pays exactly as it would have.
13.6
If the program-wide terms change, the change only ever looks forwardWe may change the terms of the referral program at our discretion. Any such change takes effect only for referrals that close after its stated effective date, and we will give you at least 30 days' written notice before that date. A change never reaches a referral that has already closed: that referral keeps the rate it was stamped with on its closing day and its service share for as long as that client keeps paying, on the terms in force at that close, exactly as 13.2 and 13.4 provide. This clause does not qualify 13.1: while this agreement stands, a program-wide change that lowers rates does not reach your Schedule A at all, and your rate schedule can still only be changed by a document both of us sign. 13.6 governs the program you would return to if this agreement ended; 13.1 governs you while it is in force. Where they could be read to conflict, 13.1 wins.
If we disagree
14.1
Talk to us first, at club@cobbledworks.com. We will work it out in the open with the records in front of both of us, and most things end there.
14.2
If we truly cannot, disputes are resolved by individual binding arbitration under the American Arbitration Association's commercial rules, in the state where Cobbled Works is organized, whose law governs this agreement. Small-claims court stays open to both of us. No class actions. A claim has to be brought within one year of when it arises.
14.3
Our total liability to you under this agreement is capped at what we paid or owe you in the 12 months before the claim. Neither of us is liable to the other for indirect or consequential damages.
General
15.1
This agreement, with its schedules, is the whole deal between us on this subject and replaces anything said or written before it. Changes have to be in writing and signed by both sides.
15.2
Notices go to the addresses on the cover page. Email counts, as long as it is acknowledged.
15.3
You cannot assign this agreement without our written consent, which we will not withhold for no reason. We can assign it to a successor to our business.
15.4
If a court finds one part unenforceable, the rest still stands. A right we do not enforce right away is not a right we gave up.
15.5
This agreement can be signed in counterparts, and a scan or an electronic signature is as good as ink.

Schedule A
Compensation schedule
Locked for the term under section 13.1. Every signed Partner is paid these rates on every qualified referral; there is no ladder and no level attached to any number here. The build-fee percentage applies to the build fee only and rides each installment as the client pays it. Every rate here is identical to the published program on purpose. What signing buys is that they are locked for the term (13.1), that attribution is locked (13.3), and that closed referrals survive the program ending (13.4). That certainty is the consideration for the obligations in sections 6, 9, and 11, and for nothing else.
| Who | Close bonus | Share of the build fee | Service share, every month they stay | When it ends |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Not signed | $100 website, $50 tracking | 5% | 10% | When the client stops paying |
| Signed Partner | $100 website, $50 tracking | 5% | 10% | When the client stops paying, and these rates are locked for your term |
| Both rows pay the same, and that is deliberate. Executing this agreement does not raise a rate; it locks the ones you see (1.4, 13.1). Your recognition level appears nowhere in this table on purpose, because it does not price anything (4.3). | ||||
What that looks like on 5 introductions
5 owners, 5 different plans, inside one rolling year, all at the one program rate. The first row is the build-fee rule in practice: a site-only plan carries no build fee, so there is no percentage on it, and it still pays the full bonus and the full service share. The last column has no end date on it at all, and it repeats every year they stay. Real numbers move with each plan's price.
| The business | What they bought | Paid at close | Service share, first two years | And every year after |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A boutique you already call on | Site-only, $149 a month, no build fee | $100 | $357.60 | $178.80 |
| The auto shop two towns over | $1,800 build + $199 a month | $190 | $477.60 | $238.80 |
| A landscaping crew you supply | $2,500 build + $249 a month | $225 | $597.60 | $298.80 |
| A plumbing outfit on your route | $2,500 build + $329 a month | $225 | $789.60 | $394.80 |
| An HVAC company you have known for years | $4,000 build + $499 a month | $300 | $1,197.60 | $598.80 |
| Five introductions | $1,040 | $3,420.00 | $1,710.00 |
$4,460 across the first two years from owners you were going to see anyway. $500 of it is close bonuses, $540 is the build-fee share arriving across the months each client pays their build off, and $3,420 is the service share month by month. Then it simply keeps going: those same five clients pay $1,710 a year, every year they stay, at the same 10% as the first month. Bigger builds push all of it up. None of it is owed until a customer has actually paid.
Schedule B
Registered introductions
One line per name. The conversation column is what turns a Nomination into an Introduction under section 6.4, and one sentence in it is enough. Copy this page as often as you need, or keep it in your hub and we will mirror it here.

Type: I for Introduction, N for Nomination, G for group or network (section 6.9). Both I and N hold 30 days; the conversation you log on an I is what an extension rests on.
Schedule C
The Partner's affirmation
Signed once, at the start. It is the honesty language from section 6.2, and it is the thing that makes the whole program work without us auditing anybody.
- InitialEvery business I register under my code is one where I have a direct personal or business relationship with the owner or an officer of that business.
- InitialWhere I register a name before I have spoken with that owner, I will register it as a Nomination. I understand every registration carries a 30-day window with a check-in, and that any extension is Cobbled Works' decision.
- InitialI will tell people I am paid for the introduction, every time, and I will follow whatever my own employer, broker, or compliance obligations require on top of that.
- InitialI have checked that participating does not conflict with my company policy, my employment agreement, or my professional obligations.
- InitialI will bring franchises, chains, buying groups, and associations to Cobbled Works as a group conversation rather than registering their members one at a time.
Schedule D
Getting paid
This page is not something to fill in. It is here so you know exactly what happens after you sign, and what does not happen. Nothing on it is required for this agreement to take effect.
- 01You sign, and you are done
You are a registered Partner from that moment, on the one Partner rate, with your recognition level carried over under 1.5. There is nothing else to send us, no account to open, and nobody to wait on. Start introducing owners the same day. - 02Your commissions accrue against your code
Every qualified referral is credited to you and shown on your running statement (3.4), whether or not payout details exist yet. None of it expires while it waits (5.4). - 03When the first one is actually payable, we ask
We tell you the amount waiting, then hand you to our payment processor's onboarding to add bank details and complete a Form W-9. Once, and only at the point real money is sitting there for you. - 04Your tax identification number stays with the processor
We do not ask for a Social Security number or an EIN and we do not store one (5.6). The $600 IRS reporting threshold is the reason the W-9 exists at all (10.1).
Asking for a Social Security number before anyone has earned a dollar is a good way to lose good partners at the gate. So we do not. The signature is the commitment; the bank details are the plumbing, and the plumbing can wait until there is something to run through it.
