The Bidroom Referral Program in One Sentence
Refer someone to Bidroom, and when they post a project that gets bid on and awarded, you earn real cash — plus 500 bonus points per referral and milestone bonuses every 5 referrals.
How Much Can You Actually Earn?
Your payout scales with project size. Bigger projects mean bigger rewards:
- $1K – $5K project: $99 base + 1.25% — about $162 on a $5K job
- $5K – $10K project: $125 base + 1% — about $225 on a $10K job
- $10K – $50K project: $175 base + 0.75% — about $550 on a $50K job
- $50K – $150K project: $250 base + 0.5% — about $1,000 on a $150K job
- $150K – $500K project: $350 base + 0.35% — about $2,100 on a $500K job
- $500K+ project: $500 base + 0.25% — capped at $2,500 per referral
On top of that you collect 500 points per successful referral and additional milestone bonuses every 5 referrals.
How to Start in 4 Steps
1. Grab Your Referral Code
Open the Bidroom app and tap Referral Network. Your personal code is shown at the top of the screen. Tap Copy to put it on your clipboard.
2. Share Your Link, Not Just the Code
Use the Invite Friends, Import Contacts, or the per-channel share buttons (WhatsApp, iMessage, Email, LinkedIn, Facebook, X). These automatically attach your code as ?ref=YOURCODE so the credit comes back to you when they sign up.
3. Pick the Right People to Invite
The program pays out when a referred person posts a real project that gets awarded. The highest-converting invites are:
- Property owners planning a remodel, addition, or new build
- Realtors and property managers handling renovations for clients
- General contractors looking for vetted subs
- Subcontractors who want a steady pipeline of bid invitations
4. Follow Up — Casually
A single share rarely closes. Send your link, then check in a few days later with a short note: "Did you ever get around to posting that bathroom project? Happy to walk you through it." Most successful referrers earn the bulk of their cash from people they nudged twice.
Where to Share for the Best Results
- Social posts about a project you're sharing: Drop your Bidroom link in the comments so interested contractors bid through the platform instead of cluttering up your DMs.
- Your email signature: One line — "Get bids on your next project at bidroom.io/r/YOURCODE" — earns money on autopilot.
- Industry groups: Facebook contractor groups, Reddit's r/Construction, LinkedIn — anywhere people already talk about bidding and project work.
- QR code on print materials: Use the QR generator in the Referral Network screen for yard signs, business cards, and flyers.
How Payouts Work
Once a referred project is awarded, your reward shows up in your Available Points / Cash balance on the Referral Network screen. From there you can request a payout to bank transfer or your saved payment method. Points and cash are tracked separately — points unlock perks (tier multipliers, lucky spins, milestone gifts) while cash is sent straight to you.
Tier Multipliers — Why It Pays to Keep Going
- Bronze: 1× points (starting tier)
- Silver: 1.25× points (500 lifetime points)
- Gold: 1.5× points (2,000 lifetime points)
Your cash payout per referral stays the same — multipliers boost the points you earn, which feed into milestone bonuses and lucky spins.
Quick FAQ
When does a referral count as "successful"?
When the person you invited signs up using your link and a project they post is awarded to a contractor on Bidroom.
Is there a cap?
Cash payouts are capped at $2,500 per individual referral (for the largest projects). There is no cap on the number of referrals you can make.
Can I refer contractors too?
Yes. When a referred contractor wins their first project on Bidroom, you earn the corresponding tier payout.
Do my points expire?
No. Points stay in your account and continue to compound your milestone bonuses.
