Who should I target if I want to drive POS Pro referrals?
POS Pro is suitable for merchants selling in brick-and-mortar stores. The upgrade unlocks essential features for inventory and store management that retail stores need.
How do I earn for driving POS Pro referrals?
When a merchant you referred to a paid Shopify plan also subscribes at least one of their retail locations to a POS Pro subscription, you will earn $500 USD in referral revenue. This payout is on top of your baseline commission for driving a merchant to a paid Shopify plan.
To be eligible for the Pro subscription payout, your referral must be billed for POS Pro within 120 days of starting their Shopify free trial. All merchant adds and Pro conversions will be tracked through Impact Radius.
Do my referrals need to come through a dedicated POS landing page for me to be eligible for POS Pro commission?

However, if your referrals have activated their paid plan through another one of your tracked referral links and then upgrade to Shopify's POS Pro subscription within 120 days, you will still earn the Affiliate POS Pro incentive.
