Partner program

Encourage Us pays a fixed amount for every student who says yes. If you write for parents of college students, run a newsletter they read, advise families through the transition, or lead a parent community that allows it, you can earn by sending families to encourageus.app.

How it works

You apply, we say yes, and you get a link of your own.
A parent follows it and buys a School year or Full year plan for their student.
Their student receives our one invitation text and replies YES.
We confirm the activation and pay you.

What you earn

$10 for a School year plan and $12 for a Full year plan, once per referred family, after the student confirms. The monthly plan does not pay a bounty. Your link remembers a visitor for 90 days, so a parent who comes back next week still counts.

A student who never replies earns nothing, and neither does a purchase that is refunded or disputed. The student has 30 days from the purchase to say yes.

How we pay

Monthly, 30 days after the month closes, once you are owed at least $10. Payouts go out through Stripe or PayPal, whichever you prefer. We may ask you for a tax form before a payout. Our partner platform shows you every click, referral and payment in a dashboard of your own.

The rules

Say that you may be paid when you share your link. A plain sentence is enough.
Follow the rules of any group or page you post in. If a community bans promotion, do not promote there.
No search ads on our name, no coupon or deal sites, and no unsolicited email or text messages of any kind.
No school names or logos in what you publish about us, and nothing that implies a school endorses us.
Stick to what we actually do: one short note, on the schedule the parent picks, only after the student says yes. We will send you an approved-claims sheet.
Referring yourself, or a household you already referred, earns nothing.

What partners never see

Nothing about a student. We never share a recipient's name, phone number, or messages with anyone, partners included. A partner sees that a referral converted and what it earned, and that is all.

Apply

Tell us where you reach college parents and we will set you up. Most partners hear back within a few days.
