Subscription Drive — Pre-launch

Bring an agent. Both of you get a month on the house.

The trade is reasonable. You make the introduction; we keep your name on the cover and add a month to your subscription, free, for every colleague who joins.

The referral programme is in final proofs. Drop your email below and the desk will write the moment it opens — one note, no marketing in between.

The Trade

Give a month. Get a month. Both sides win, or neither does.

§ Column I

You get a month.

One month of credit is applied to your next bill the moment a colleague you brought on clears their first paid invoice. $49 off the monthly plan, $33 off the annual. Stackable, up to twelve in any rolling year.

§ Column II

They get a month.

The agent you bring on gets the standard seven-day trial and a thirty-day extended trial after card entry. Thirty-seven days before the first bill. Cancel any time inside that window, no charge.

§ Column III

Nobody plays games.

Credit fires on a cleared invoice, not on a signup. Trial users can't refer. Duplicate cards and self-referral rings get caught at the gate. The mechanic is symmetric so both sides are honest about the introduction.

The Waitlist

File your name. We’ll write when the programme opens.

No referral link yet — the desk is still setting type. Leave your email and you’ll be the first to know when the give-a-month / get-a-month programme goes live.

Press Enter to file. One email when the programme opens. No marketing in between.

Reader Mail — Referral Desk

The mechanic, on the record.

Q. 01

Who can refer once the programme opens?

A.Any paying Rellow subscriber in good standing — at least one cleared invoice, no chargebacks, no pending cancellation. Trial users can't refer. This is non-negotiable: it keeps the mechanic honest.

Q. 02

What does the new agent actually get?

A.Seven days of cardless trial, then thirty more days free after card entry. Thirty-seven days, total, before the first bill. If they cancel inside that window, no charge.

Q. 03

When does my credit show up?

A.The instant your colleague's first paid invoice clears. The credit is applied automatically to your next bill — one month at $49 if you're monthly, $33 prorated if you're annual.

Q. 04

Is there a cap?

A.Twelve credited referrals per rolling twelve-month period. Past twelve, you roll into a Founder's Circle — recognition in the masthead, plus one credit per additional three referrals.

Q. 05

What if the colleague cancels right away?

A.If they refund within fourteen days of the first paid bill, the credit is clawed back from your next invoice. Disclosed up front. It almost never fires, but the rule kills the obvious refer-refund-repeat trick.

Last word

The desk opens soon. Your name should be on it.

Bring an agent. Both of you get a month free. Until the programme opens, the waitlist above is the door.
