Refer a business, earn cash.
Know a local business that belongs on DealMagik? Refer them, help them get discovered by local shoppers, and earn a cash reward.
Three steps to refer a business
Get permission from the business
Get an okay from the owner or operator before you refer them to DealMagik.
Log in to get your referral link
Log in to your DealMagik account to get a custom shareable link or QR code for this referral.
Both businesses earn a reward
You earn cash once your referred business has completed signup to DealMagik, published at least one deal and menus of their services, and has been on the platform for at least 30 consecutive days. They start with a welcome package of zero commission for their first 30 days.
A Win-Win reward structure
You, the referrer get paid in cash, and the referred business pays no commissions on transactions for the first 30 days.
Cash reward
Paid once the referred business is fully signed up — they have a complete profile, have published at least one deal, and have set up menus of the services or products they offer.
Welcome package
Every new business referred through this program starts with a welcome package instead of cash — designed to make their first month on DealMagik easier.
Who you can refer
DealMagik is dedicated to bringing the best local, consumer-facing deals to our shoppers. To qualify for the referral bonus, the referred business must be US-based and operate in one of our approved consumer categories — and your own business must be signed up, active, and in good standing to refer at all.
✓ Approved categories
- Food & Beverage — restaurants, cafes, bakeries
- Beauty & Wellness — salons, spas, gyms
- Retail & Gifts — florists, boutiques, local shops
- Home & Auto Services — detailing, landscaping, cleaning
- Local Experiences & Arts
Excluded categories
- Law firms and legal services
- Accounting, tax, and financial planning firms
- Notary services
- B2B consulting firms
- Medical practices requiring insurance (e.g. general practitioners)
We dont currently accept referrals for purely B2B services, heavily regulated professional services, or businesses that arent deal-oriented — the categories above arent exhaustive. DealMagik reviews every referred business before approving a referral payout to make sure theyre a fit for our shopper marketplace.
Frequently asked questions
Who's eligible to make a referral?+
Any business currently signed up, active, and in good standing on DealMagik can refer other businesses. Businesses can only refer other businesses — this program doesn't cover referring individual shoppers.
What kind of business can I refer?+
Any consumer-facing local business in an approved category — food & beverage, beauty & wellness, retail & gifts, home & auto services, or local experiences & arts. We don't accept referrals for B2B services, regulated professional services (legal, accounting, notary, consulting), or medical practices requiring insurance. DealMagik reviews every referral before approving a payout.
What does the referred business get?+
They don't receive cash — they get a welcome package (Zero commission, first 30 days) designed to make it easier to get their first sales on the platform.
My referral hasn't been paid. Why?+
A few common reasons: The referred business has 30 days from signup to complete their profile, publish at least 3 active deals, and process their first 5 shopper transactions. If that window passes without hitting the milestone, the referral expires. Your cash reward pays out only once that full milestone is met — not just at signup. If your referral meets all the requirements and it's been longer than expected, reach out to DealMagik Support.
Does my referral link expire?+
Your link itself doesn't expire, but each individual referral does: the business you refer must complete their profile, publish 3+ deals, and process 5 transactions within 30 days of clicking your link, or that referral is no longer eligible for a reward.
How many businesses can I refer?+
There is currently no cap on the number of businesses you can refer.
How and when will I get paid?+
Paid to your DealMagik payout account once the referral milestone is met. Contact support for payout timing details.
Where and how can I share my referral link?+
Share it with businesses you actually know and have permission to refer — direct messages, email, or in person. Posting your link publicly (open forums, coupon sites, marketplaces, paid ads) or misrepresenting your relationship with DealMagik can make a referral ineligible for a reward. DealMagik determines in its sole discretion whether a referral qualifies.
Can I refer another location of my own business, or a franchise location?+
No. Referrals must be independently owned and operated businesses — additional locations of your own business, or businesses in the same ownership/franchise group, don't qualify.
Where can I see the full program terms?+
Full terms and conditions are available here. If you still have questions, contact DealMagik Support.
