SCNX Referrals FAQ

How does this work?

It's fairly easy: Just go to your Dashboard, head over to Referrals and set it up - you can customize which page your URL should lead users to and customize their appearance to maximize effectiveness.

After that, users will be able to use your link: After clicking on it, we'll save your referral in a cookie (well technically we save it in our session cookie, so no new cookie will be set). If they add a new server, we save your referral in our database associated with the server and register a referral. 30 days after that, we check if the server is still actively using SCNX and if yes, we'll award you the 0.10€ commission (or any other amount agreed upon).
For every upgrade the server buys (free upgrades do unfortunately not count) within the first year after using your referral, you'll receive 15% (or any other percentage agreed upon) of the purchase price (without taxes, payment processing & shipping fees). Upgrades via credits count as 3€ (price of a credit). This usually means: If a server upgrades for one month to active guild, you'll receive 0,60€ (for PRO: 1,20€) - if a server pre-pays for a year, you'll receive 4,95€ (or 9,90€ accordingly). Please note the grace period for these commissions.

To get the money, you need to create an SCNX Organization and enable payouts - only takes two minutes. After having done that, you can pay out anytime in your organization dashboard via these payout-methods.  

Referrals cannot be applied to servers already using SCNX. Servers that have used SCNX at one point in the past won't be able to use your referral code.

Default Commission-Rates

Grace Period for different payment methods

Grace-Period for newly added servers is always 30 days. The server needs to be actively using SCNX in order for your commission to be granted.

Due to the different rules for chargebacks and refunds, we have different Grace-Periods for payment methods. You won't receive a commission, if a payment is refunded or the buyer starts a chargeback.

• Creditcard: 14 Days
• PayPal: 30 Days
• SEPA-Direct-Debit: 42 Days
• Other payment methods: 7 Days
• Payment with SCNX Credits (if payment method of these credits can not be determined): 30 Days

Please note that these grace periods are only for reducing the risks of chargebacks. If a customer opens a chargeback-case against us after the grace period, we will still deduct your commission from your organization-balance.

Payout-Methods

Transaction-Fees will be deducted from payed out amount. We are working on supporting even more pay-out methods. Please note that pricing may change in the future.

What do the different States of Referrals mean?

• "Pending referrals": These referrals are in their respective grace periods and will be processed in the next 30 days
• "Accepted referrals": These referrals have been granted, and your organization has received the commission. Check your organization's payout-history for details.
• "Invalid referrals": These referrals were invalid. Reasons for this could be Refunds, Chargebacks, Guild-Deletions and others. Unfortunately, due to technical restrictions, we are unable to provide information on a case-by-case basis.
