What it paysHow credit worksWhen you get paidOther referral programsRefer through us insteadWhat it pays
micro1's referral page leads with a "$50,000 referral reward" and says there is no limit on how many companies you refer. The FAQ on the same page says you can earn "up to $50K per referral, depending on the size and value of the partnership." In June the reward was up to $25K. We could not find the "$75K for closed companies" figure that circulates online on any public micro1 page.
How credit works
- The company must apply through your unique link.
- If it applied on its own before clicking your link, you get no credit.
- Applications made without your link cannot be credited after the fact.
- Anyone over 18 can refer, and you don't need to be a micro1 member.
- The company still has to qualify: 30 or more employees, U.S. first, English documentation.
When you get paid
It depends on the deal type. For workflow deals, the company has to finish onboarding and reach a revenue threshold micro1 does not publish. For full data deals, you're paid once micro1 accepts the company's data. The money goes to your micro1 wallet, and you withdraw it from there.

| Buyer | Published referral reward | When it pays |
|---|---|---|
| micro1 | Up to $50K | Revenue threshold, or data accepted |
| Scale AI | Up to $50K | Only if Scale signs a partnership, one referral paid per deal |
| Mode (BizBuyData) | The greater of $50K or 6% of the company's payment | Once the licensing deal is complete |
| Grepped | 10% of the deal, up to $100K | When the deal closes |
| Jottings | 25% of Jottings' fee | After the license money is received |
| Handshake AI | Has a referral page, no terms published | Not published |
Each program only pays when it is the one that closes the deal, so the same company referred to the wrong buyer pays nothing.

If you know owners (as an accountant, lawyer, IT provider, banker or broker), you don't have to guess which program fits each company. Send the company to Briggs Analytics, we match it to the buyer that fits and pays best, and you share in the referral fee on written terms. How referring through Briggs Analytics works. Check that your firm's rules allow referral payments first.
Briggs Analytics is independent. Some buyers named on this page may pay Briggs Analytics a referral fee, and owners never pay us anything. Every figure comes from the buyer's own page or the source linked next to it, checked October 21, 2026. Buyers change their terms often, so confirm on their page before you sign. Disclosures
In short
- micro1 advertises a $50K referral reward, "up to $50K" per its FAQ. It was $25K in June.
- The company must apply through your link. No retroactive credit.
- Scale also pays up to $50K, Mode pays the greater of $50K or 6%, Grepped pays 10% up to $100K.
- A company referred to the wrong buyer pays nothing, so matching matters.
