With services on, we assume about half your clients take accounting, a quarter a Golden Visa, and around 60% a residence visa and bank account. Attestation, family visas and amendments pay on top. USD and EUR are approximate.

Amounts are for a full licence + visa package, which most clients take. Licence-only referrals pay a reduced rate, always confirmed with you in advance. Accounting, Golden Visa, visa and bank account referrals pay on top.

Who you're referring to

Your contacts deal with our own team in Dubai, not a call centre.

Affiliate rules

Short and simple, so everyone gets paid fairly.

Paid after the client pays

Your commission is due once the client has paid us in full. Refunded or cancelled cases are not paid.

Your referral must be tracked

The client uses your link, mentions your name, or you introduce them to us directly. The first referrer to introduce a client gets the credit.

No ads on our name

Don't bid on "Emirates Business Setup" or similar terms in Google, Bing or other ads, and don't post your link on coupon or discount sites.

No spam, no false promises

Only share with people who are interested, and don't promise prices, visas or timelines. We confirm all of that with the client.

Full details are in the Commission & Payout Terms. We may update these rules; commissions already earned are always paid.

Free tools to share with your contacts

Send these before you introduce someone. They answer the first questions and make your referral an easy yes.

FAQ

Does it cost anything to join?

No. Joining is free, with no fees, targets or minimum number of referrals. You only ever receive money.

Do I need a company or a UAE licence?

No. Affiliates join from anywhere in the world, as individuals or businesses. You don't need any UAE presence.

Do I have to sell anything?

No. You introduce the contact. Our team does the consultation, the closing, the paperwork and the ongoing support.

When and how do I get paid?

Once the client has paid us, your commission is paid monthly or on request, by bank transfer. You can follow every referral and payment in your affiliate portal.

Which currency am I paid in?

Commissions are set in AED. USD and EUR amounts on this page are approximate, and the final amount depends on the exchange rate on the day we pay.

Can I use your logo or run ads?

You can share your link on social media, in messages and on your website. Please don't bid on our brand name in paid ads, post on coupon sites, or change our logo. Ask us first if you want to create your own material about us.

What's the difference between affiliate and partner?

Same commissions. The affiliate program is a quick sign-up for occasional referrals. The partner program adds a dedicated account manager, partner resources and a white label option, for people referring regularly.
