Earn by recommending our store
Promoting indie books can be notoriously difficult and our promotional services offer indie authors the chance for their work to reach new audiences.
We’ve now opened up our Referral Program which allows you to help other indie authors and earn a small bonus in the process.
For every successful listing at the book store that comes by way of your personal recommendation, we’ll give you 15% of whatever that author spends at The Indie Book Store – as a little thank you.
Unlimited earnings – but how does it work?
If you already have a book featured at The Indie Book Store, you’ll be entitled to apply for a Unique Reference Code (URC), which you can share with your friends, family, and online followers – in fact, anyone you want.
You can then use this code to recommend our book promotion services to other authors. If you have anyone who needs a hand getting their books noticed, you can recommend our services to them. And if they sign up for one of our promotional packages and use your URC, we’ll reward you with 15% of the package that they sign up for. This will be paid into your Paypal account.
To apply to be on the program, all you need to do is complete the form below. If you are approved, we’ll send you a URC and you can get earning immediately.

Authors who sign up using your URC don’t receive any monetary incentive, they will get their own URC with which they can earn own commissions by recommending The Indie Book Store in the same way as you.
You won’t get paid. In fact, someone else could get your commission. To avoid this, ensure that the author/s signing up use the correct URC.
We will aim to pay you your commission within 72 hours of receiving funds from the third-party author who has signed up.
