VIP Referral Program

Refer a Friend. Get Paid. Stay Private.

Earn $100 for each of your first two referrals and $125 for each one after that, plus a monthly hosting bonus.

Most of our clients find us through word of mouth. If you know an independent companion or creator who needs a professional, discreet website, introduce them to Elite Model Design. When their site launches, we pay you. Your friend gets their first month of hosting free.

How it works

How It Works

1

Refer a friend

Send them our way. They need to give us your name before they buy, by call, text, or the contact form.

2

They launch

We build their site: a $249 one-time build with logo and branding included when needed, usually done in 1–2 weeks depending on how quickly we get their content.

3

You get paid

Once their site is live and their payment has cleared, we send your reward by Zelle, Venmo, or Cash App.

Rewards

Your Rewards

Who you areReward per referralHosting bonus
Client: referrals 1–2$100$5 per paid month, up to 12 months
Client: referral 3 and up$125$5 per paid month, up to 12 months
Partner (photographers, assistants, and others who aren't clients)$50Not included

Your referral count is a lifetime count. It never resets, so once you reach your third referral, every referral after that pays $125.

Hosting bonus: you earn $5 for each month your referred client actually pays for hosting ($19.99/mo, updates included), for up to 12 months. That's up to $60 extra per referral, paid quarterly. You don't earn the $5 for any month the client doesn't pay, including months after they cancel.

Welcome perk

A Welcome Perk for Your Friend

Anyone you refer gets their first month of hosting free. All they have to do is mention your name before they buy.

Payouts

How and When You Get Paid

  • Payment methods: Zelle, Venmo, or Cash App, whichever you prefer. We don't pay in crypto.
  • Main reward: sent once the referred site has launched and the referred client's payment has been received. To prevent fraud, we send it after the client's first paid hosting payment clears.
  • Hosting bonus: sent quarterly. It covers only the months in that quarter the referred client actually paid for hosting. Unpaid or canceled months earn nothing.
  • Questions or payout status: call or text 312-772-5810 or email hello@elitemodeldesign.com.

Privacy

Our Privacy Promise

Discretion is the core of our business, and that includes this program.

  • Your identity stays confidential. We don't share your name, participation, or earnings with anyone, including other clients, without your permission.
  • Your referrals stay confidential too. We never disclose who referred whom.
  • Records are kept private. We keep payment records only as needed for tax purposes, and we store them securely.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can join?
Current and past Elite Model Design clients earn the client rewards. Photographers, assistants, and others who aren't clients can join at the partner rate of $50 per referral once they agree to our written partner terms.
How does my friend make sure I get credit?
They need to give us your name before they buy. We can't add a referral after the purchase.
When do I get paid?
Once the referred site is live and the client's payment has been received. See "How and When You Get Paid" above for exact timing.
Is there a limit on how many people I can refer?
No. Your count never resets, so from your third referral on, each one pays $125.
What if my friend cancels or misses a hosting payment?
You earn the $5 bonus only for months they actually pay. Missed and canceled months earn nothing, and the bonus stops when their hosting stops. Rewards you've already been paid stay yours, unless the payment is refunded or charged back.
Will anyone know I referred them?
Only if you tell them. We keep referrer identities confidential.
Do I have to pay taxes on my rewards?
Rewards may count as taxable income. Taxes are your responsibility, and we may ask you for a W-9 before paying.

Terms

Referral Program Terms & Conditions

Effective: October 20, 2026

  1. Eligibility. Client rewards are open to current and past Elite Model Design clients. Partner rewards are open to people who aren't clients (such as photographers and assistants) and are approved under written partner terms. Self-referrals aren't allowed, including referring yourself under a different name or profile.
  2. Qualified referral. A qualified referral is a new client who (a) has never been an Elite Model Design client, (b) has at least an active Tryst or OnlyFans profile, (c) buys a website build, (d) has their site launched, and (e) has paid in full.
  3. Attribution. The referred client has to name the referrer before buying. If a referral is disputed, credit goes to the first referrer named. Referrals named after the purchase don't qualify.
  4. How to claim. No sign-up is needed. Once a referral is named, we track it. Referrers can check on a referral's status by calling or texting 312-772-5810 or emailing hello@elitemodeldesign.com.
  5. Rewards. For clients: $100 per qualified referral for referrals 1–2 and $125 per qualified referral from the 3rd on, based on the referrer's lifetime count of qualified referrals, which never resets. For partners: $50 per qualified referral. Rewards are flat amounts and don't depend on what the project costs. Tips and gratuities never count toward rewards.
  6. Hosting bonus (clients only). $5 for each month the referred client actually pays for hosting, for up to the first 12 months after launch, paid quarterly. Months that go unpaid don't earn the bonus. The free first month doesn't count toward the bonus. The bonus ends as soon as the referred client cancels, stops paying, or leaves hosting.
  7. Payout timing. The main reward is paid after the referred site launches and the client's payment is received, and after the client's first paid hosting payment clears.
  8. Payment methods. Rewards are paid only by Zelle, Venmo, or Cash App. We don't pay in crypto, cash on delivery, or service credit unless we agree to it in writing.
  9. Refunds and chargebacks. If a referred client's payment is refunded, reversed, or charged back, that referral's reward and hosting bonus are void. Any amount we've already paid out may be deducted from future rewards.
  10. Welcome perk. A referred client gets one month of hosting free. The perk can't be exchanged for cash or transferred, and it can't be combined with other hosting promotions unless we say so.
  11. Taxes. Referrers are responsible for any taxes on their rewards. We may require a completed IRS Form W-9 before paying and may issue tax forms as the law requires. We keep payment records confidential and only as long as tax law requires.
  12. Confidentiality. We don't disclose referrer and referred client identities except where the law requires it or with consent.
  13. Fair use. We may decline or reverse any reward involving fraud, spam, misrepresentation, or fake profiles. Referrers may not claim to speak for Elite Model Design or make promises on its behalf.
  14. Changes. We may change or end this program with advance notice posted on this page of at least 30 days. Qualified referrals named before a change still earn under the terms in effect when they were named.
  15. Contact. Call or text 312-772-5810 or email hello@elitemodeldesign.com with questions.
