2. The DistroKid Referral Program: How It Works

Part 9 • DistroKid Referral Program

DistroKid offers a straightforward referral program. When a new artist signs up for DistroKid using your unique referral link, both you and the referred artist receive a benefit:

<ul> <li><strong>For the Referrer (You):</strong> You receive a flat fee (reportedly $10) for each new artist who signs up and pays for their first year's subscription.</li> <li><strong>For the Referred Artist:</strong> They receive a 7% discount on their first year's subscription fee.</li> </ul> This mutual benefit makes the referral link an easy and attractive recommendation for both parties.
