Commission is 30% for the first 3 months, then 15% recurring, of each referred user's regional plan price. Payouts release after a 21-day hold (minimum $50). If a referred user gets a refund, that referral's commission is reversed and shown below as Reversed - so your history stays fully transparent. Live stats appear once the referral backend is connected.
