Refer & Earn — how your code pays you

One code for everyone. A producer earns $29 for an invited artist and $10 in promo credit for an invited producer; an artist earns a free month. What triggers each reward, when it unlocks, and what changed.

·4 min read·guides

Everyone on GETMUSIC has one referral code and one link. The system works out who signed up through it and pays the reward that fits — you don't pick a programme, and there's nothing to apply for.

Your code is on your Refer & Earn page, in the sidebar under Wallet.

What each invite pays

You're a producer, you invite an artist. They subscribe with your code and you get $29 — flat, whichever plan they pick. It lands in your wallet and withdraws like pool earnings.

You're a producer, you invite another producer. $10 in promo credit, paid when they publish their first beat — not when they create an account. Promo credit buys boosts for your own beats; it isn't cash and doesn't withdraw.

You're an artist, you invite an artist. Your friend gets 25% off their first month. When they pay it, you get a full month free — a 100% discount applied automatically to your next invoice. Nothing to claim.

Whoever you invite, they get 25% off their first month on any plan. They pay on day one at the reduced price, and can cancel any time from Settings → Billing.

When the money unlocks

A cash reward doesn't arrive instantly, and the reason is card payments: a charge can still be reversed for a while after it clears.

Reward Waits Why
$29 for an artist 30 days The refund and chargeback window
$10 promo credit 7 days Long enough for moderation to pull a beat
Free month — Applied to your next invoice directly

Your Refer & Earn page shows every invite with the stage it reached and, for anything pending, the exact date it unlocks. If the payment behind a reward is later refunded or charged back, the reward is reversed — you'll see it on the page as reversed rather than quietly disappearing.

Two ways your code gets counted

The link. getmusic.shop/r/YOURCODE — clicking it tags the visitor for 30 days.

Typing it. There's a "have a code?" field on the signup form and at checkout.

Use both. If someone opens your link inside Instagram or YouTube and then finishes signing up in their real browser, the link's tag doesn't make the trip — that's how those in-app browsers work, and it's why the field exists. Put the code in your caption as well as the link.

The first code wins. Once someone signs up under yours, they stay yours; a code applied later doesn't move them.

Where to put it

Your page has three lines ready to copy, each with your code already in them — one sized for a YouTube description, one for a bio, one for a pinned comment. The most reliable placement is wherever people already hear your beats: the description of a type-beat video does more than a post about the programme.

Your own code doesn't work on your own account. Rewards are reviewed before they're paid, and anything that looks like a self-invite is held or reversed.

What changed

Two things moved. Inviting a producer used to pay $2 in cash at signup; it now pays $10 in promo credit when they publish their first beat. An email address costs nothing to create; a published beat is work, and that's what the reward tracks. And the welcome offer is now 25% off a first month rather than a free one — which means an invited artist pays from day one, and the producer who brought them is paid on that first invoice instead of waiting out a month that collected nothing.

Everything already shared keeps working. Old links and old codes still resolve — nothing you've put in a video description needs updating. You now also have a code that's just your username, which is easier to say out loud.

Getting paid

Referral cash lands in the same wallet as your pool earnings and withdraws the same way, once you've set up payouts. The wallet's earnings breakdown shows referrals as their own line, so you can tell what came from invites and what came from the catalog.
