# Partner program

The partner program is a way to earn by recommending datool.ru: you share your link or code, and you get **20 %** of every plan payment by a client you referred — for as long as they pay, with no time limit. Joining is free and needs no manual approval. This article covers joining, how links and the client mark work, how rewards are calculated and paid out, and what the partner dashboard shows.

## Where to find it

- The partner dashboard — [hi.datool.ru/partner/](https://hi.datool.ru/partner/), the **“Partners”** tab. Only the **owner** of the current organization sees it: the partner is the organization, and the rewards are its money.
- The program description for everyone — [hi.datool.ru/partner-program/](https://hi.datool.ru/partner-program/) (the “Partner program” link in the site footer).
- Full terms — the [partner agreement](https://hi.datool.ru/legal/partner_offer/).

## How it works — in short

1. The organization's owner accepts the partner agreement and clicks **“Join”** — and gets a main link like `https://hi.datool.ru/r/CODE/` and a partner code.
2. A person follows the link or enters the code in “Have a promo code?” — for **30 days** we remember that you referred them.
3. When they **pay for a plan for the first time**, their organization is attached to you for good together with that day's rate, and the client gets **+7 days** on the paid subscription.
4. You earn **20 %** of every plan payment they make. For 14 days a reward is “on hold”, then it becomes “available”.
5. You transfer available money **to the balance** (any amount, instantly) or request a **payout to a bank account** (from 5,000 ₽).

## Joining

While the organization isn't a partner, the “Partners” tab shows the join screen.

![The join screen: rate and the “Join” form](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-join.webp)

1. Check **which organization** will become the partner — it's shown in the form, and rewards go to its balance. Pick another one in the switcher to the right of the account heading.
2. Open and read the **partner agreement** via the link, and tick the box saying you have read and accept it.
3. Click **“Join”**. Your link and code appear right away.

If the agreement was updated while the page was open, the site asks you to read the new version.

Below is the **“How much you can earn”** calculator: enter how many clients will be on Premium and on Business (a slider up to 100 or a number up to 9,999) — the right side shows what you'll get per month and per year if clients renew. It's an estimate: 20 % of the monthly price, without term discounts or promo codes. Under the calculator are three cards with terms: link and code, the gift to clients, and payouts.

## Links and partner code

After joining, a **main link** `https://hi.datool.ru/r/CODE/` is created. The link code also works as a **partner code**: it can be entered in the “Have a promo code?” field on the “Subscriptions and billing” and “Balance” tabs, or in the promo code field at plan checkout — this is the same as following the link.

- **Additional links** — for different platforms (“Telegram channel”, “Newsletter”), each with its own statistics. No more than **50 links** outside the archive.
- **Where the link leads** — your choice: MAX home page, Plans, Sign-up or API.Max.
- **A link to any MAX page** — a channel, one of its tabs, a rating, a post (see “Page link and channel badge” below).
- **A code with plans** — `https://hi.datool.ru/plans/?promo=CODE` works the same as following the link.
- A link can be **archived** and restored. An archived link keeps working. Links can't be deleted — they carry history.

## The client mark

- Following the link puts a mark in the browser for **30 days** — counted from the **latest** click (or code entry).
- If the person later follows **another** partner's link, the mark is overwritten: the **latest** click wins.
- On sign-up the mark moves to the account — the client can pay later, even from another device. If the person is already signed in, the mark is written to their account at once.
- If the mark expires before the first payment, the client isn't attached to you.

## Client attachment

A client is the **organization** that paid for a plan. It's attached to you at its **first plan payment** (from the balance or by card) if the payer has your active mark, the organization isn't attached to anyone yet, and it isn't you. After attachment, neither new clicks nor other codes change it.

**The client's gift** — +7 days on the subscription they paid for first, once per organization.

## Rewards

- **The rate is 20 %** of every plan payment by an attached client, for as long as they pay.
- **The rate is fixed for the client** on the day of their first payment and applies to all their payments, even if the general rate changes later. We run **promotions** with a higher rate: clients who first pay during a promotion keep it after it ends.
- **The base** is how much the client paid **in money**: after the promo discount and excluding bonus money on their balance (promo gifts, partner money, plan remainders). Example: a client paid 12,490 ₽ in money for a year of Premium — you're credited 2,498 ₽.
- **A 14-day hold** — a reward is first “on hold until DATE”, then becomes **“available”**. During this time errors and refunds come to light: a cancelled reward never becomes available.

## How to get your reward

| Method | How much | When | For whom |
|---|---|---|---|
| **To balance** | any amount of the available money, ruble for ruble | instantly | all partners |
| **To a bank account** | the whole available amount in one request, from 5,000 ₽ | after accounting processes the request | sole proprietors, companies, self-employed |

Money on the balance arrives as a “Partner reward” line: you can pay for plans and packs with it, but **it isn't refunded on request**.

For a bank payout fill in the **“Payout details”**: status (sole proprietor, company, self-employed), name, INN, bank account, BIC, bank and an email for documents (empty — acts go to the owner). While a request is pending, you can't submit another. A rejected request (with a reason) returns the amount to available money. A self-employed partner sends a “Moy Nalog” receipt after the payout.

## The partner dashboard

### Three cards at the top

![The “Your link”, “Reward” and “Rate for new clients” cards](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-top.webp)

- **“Your link”** — the main link with a **“Copy”** button, your code, the client gift and “chips” for all active links; **“+ new”** goes to the new link form.
- **“Reward”** — **available for withdrawal** in large type, and in one line — on hold, withdrawn and awaiting payout; the **“To balance”** and **“To bank account”** buttons open the payouts table. If some rewards are under review, it's stated here too: that money becomes available after the review.
- **“Rate for new clients”** — the current rate (yours by agreement or the general one), how many **clients** you have and how many **pay now**; a “Rate for each client” link.

### Clicks by day

![Click bars and summary tiles for the period](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-chart.webp)

The bars show how many clicks your links got on each day of the selected period: **7 days, 30 days, 90 days, year, all time** (for periods longer than 92 days, one bar is a week). The highest bar is highlighted and labelled with the peak count and date; hover over a bar to see the date, clicks and sign-ups.

Summary tiles for the period: **clicks**, **unique visitors**, **sign-ups**, **new clients**, **active clients (now)**, **client payments**, **clients paid** and **credited to you**. The “By day as a table” fold shows the same data in rows.

### Tables: links, clients, rewards, payouts

The switcher above the table:

- **Links** — each link (label, address with “Copy”, “main”), where it leads, clicks and unique visitors, sign-ups, clients, credited for the period; “Archive” / “Restore” buttons. On the right — an “Archive (N)” link.

![The links table](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-links.webp)

- **Clients** — without names or emails (“Client No. 12”): when attached, the client's **rate**, how much they paid, how much you were credited, whether their subscription is active.

![The clients table](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-clients.webp)

- **Rewards** — date, client, what for, base, rate, amount and status: **“on hold until DATE”**, **“under review”**, **“available”**, **“cancelled”**.

![The rewards table](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-rewards.webp)

- **Payouts** — the “To balance” form (amount field and “Transfer to balance”) and the “To a bank account” form (request a payout of the available amount, or a hint to fill in the details), followed by the payout history: date, destination, amount, status, comment.

![The payouts table with withdrawal forms](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-payouts.webp)

### New link

The **“New link”** fold below the tables:

1. **“Label”** — for yourself: where you'll place the link.
2. **“Custom code”** — at least 4 characters: letters, digits, “-”, “_” (for example, “IVANOV”); empty — a random code. The code mustn't match a promo code or someone else's link and can't be changed later.
3. **“Leads to”** — MAX home page, Plans, Sign-up or API.Max.
4. **“Create link”**.

### Page link and channel badge

![A link to a channel page and a badge for a website](https://media.datool.ru/docs/guide/en/cabinet-partner-page-link.webp)

1. Paste the address of a max.datool.ru page (channel, tab, rating, post) or a channel name (“@name”) and click **“Build link”**.
2. Copy your link to that page — following it sets your mark and opens the page.
3. For a public channel, a **channel badge** appears as well — an image with the channel name, subscribers and datool.ru; the subscriber count updates itself. There are **“Copy code”** (HTML for a website) and **“Copy text”** — for the channel description in MAX, where images aren't shown.

## What's prohibited

- referring yourself, your own organizations and colleagues from your team — such payments aren't attached;
- inflating clicks, spamming, promising discounts that don't exist;
- advertising on “datool” search queries without approval and posing as datool.ru.

Under the Russian advertising law, a partner labels their own ads (erid). Violations lead to suspension and cancellation of disputed rewards. If participation is suspended, a notice at the top of the tab says that links don't attach new clients and rewards and payouts are stopped.
