Using a Premail referral link or code

What happens when you open a referral link?

Premail checks the code with its server. If the code is valid, the page offers two choices for a few seconds: Open Premail, for when the desktop app is already installed on this computer, and Continue in browser. If you do nothing, it moves on to the upgrade page by itself. If the code is not valid, you go straight to the upgrade page with no referral applied.

The referral page is left out of website analytics, so your code is not recorded in page-view data.

How do you enter a referral code yourself?

1. 1Go to the upgrade page.
2. 2Type the code into the Have a referral code? box and click Apply.
3. 3Look for Referral code applied. before you pick a plan.

If the code is not accepted, the box tells you why:

• That code was not recognized. Check the spelling with whoever gave it to you.
• That referral code has expired. A code only counts for a set number of days after the link is opened or the code is entered, as listed in the terms.
• That referral code is not currently accepting new purchases. The affiliate's account is not active right now.

If a code is already applied in this browser, from a link or an earlier visit, the upgrade page shows Referral code applied. in place of the box.

How is attribution stored?

• Opening a referral link stores the code in this browser only if you have accepted analytics cookies; otherwise it is kept only for the current tab and is gone once you close it
• Typing a code in yourself at checkout works with or without cookie consent
• If more than one code is used before a purchase, only the most recent one gets credit
• If you later withdraw cookie consent, a stored code is cleared from this browser

Is a referral code automatically a discount?

A referral code identifies who referred you; it does not, by itself, change your price. Any discount tied to a specific code is a separate, explicitly advertised promotion, not a guaranteed effect of every code.

How does the desktop installation handoff work?

If you install the Premail desktop app after opening a referral link in your browser, the browser hands the referral code to the app through a dedicated app link when you clickOpen Premail on the referral landing page. If you instead download and install separately, complete checkout in the same browser session where you opened the referral link (or entered the code) so attribution carries through to your purchase.

Once the app has a code, upgrading from inside Premail passes it to the upgrade page for you. A code already applied in that browser takes precedence over the one from the app.

Who is eligible?

Referral credit is for new customers. A purchase by the affiliate themselves, or by someone who was already a Premail customer, does not earn commission. If a referral does not seem to have counted, see My referral credit is missing. To recommend Premail yourself, see the referral program.
