Referral Partner Program

Lightwell Web Designs works primarily with indie authors on focused, story-driven websites. If you coach authors, moderate a community, or simply know writers who need a solid web presence, you can earn commissions by referring them to us.

How it works

Step 1: You apply using the form on this page. We review fit and confirm details.
Step 2: Once approved, you receive a tracking method (referral code or simple instructions) and a summary you can share with your audience.
Step 3: When a client books a project and mentions your referral, you receive a commission after their payment clears.

Commission & growth

Referral commissions are paid on completed, fully-paid projects (not on cancelled work).
Initial commission tier usually starts once you have referred at least three paying clients.
As you bring more clients over time, we can review and increase your rate or offer deeper collaboration options.
Payouts are typically made once per month via Stripe payout or Payoneer, depending on region and agreement.

Full commission percentages and payout details are always confirmed with you in writing before you begin referring clients.
