Nope! You may refer as many companies as you’d like. We’d love to meet them.

To make a successful referral, you must introduce OrangeUP to a decision-maker through the referral form. Decision-makers include anyone with a managerial, C-suite, or leadership title. You can refer a company you work at, as long as you're not a decision-maker and can prove you needed to get buy-in. Referrals must be for new business.

Note: At this time, we are only accepting referrals to OrangeUP Virtual Assistants, but we may be able to extend referrals to OrangeUP Launchpad in the future.

New business refers to companies that are new OrangeUP customers. Companies that were previously OrangeUP customers and have rejoined are not eligible for the referral program.

We’ll send you an email notification when you first submit your referral and provide additional updates via email as the status of your referral progresses.

You'll be paid via our third-party vendor Paypal. You'll receive an invitation to join this system during the account creation process, and you'll be asked to provide your TIN information to process payment. For payments above $600, OrangeUP is required to issue you an IRS Form MISC-1099, which will be sent to your contact email when it has been filed.

Your referral submission can be denied if your referral decided not to join OrangeUP Virtual Assistants, was already or previously an OrangeUP Virtual Assistant customer, or was already referred by someone else. Only one referral is allowed per company, so the referral will be credited to the person whose deal progresses first.

Referral bonuses are issued after the referred company has successfully closed out their first month. You should get a notification to provide TIN information to receive your referral bonus. Bonuses are paid once a quarter on dates specified on this page and in referral communications. If you’ve sent your requested information by the cutoff date and you haven’t received your bonus on the specified quarterly date, please send us an email at [email protected].

We issue the referral bonus to you once your referral joins OrangeUP and only after they have successfully closed out their first month. Referrals are paid out once a quarter on specified dates. You can reference this timeline to get a clearer picture of when you can expect your referral bonus. Referrals made on: 

• October, November, December are paid out January 31

• January, February, March are paid out on April 30

• April, May, June are paid out on July 31

• July, August, September are paid out on October 31

Please note: you submit any requested information by the last day of each quarter to receive your payment on time, for example, by December 31 to receive your bonus on January 31.
