Referral program

Refer Winkels and earn on every store you bring

For every store that signs up with your code and subscribes, you earn 20% of their payment for the first 2 months. No referral cap.

Available in Argentina and Brazil · Payouts via MercadoPago

How it works in 4 steps

Simple and transparent. No fine print, no entry barriers.

1

Link your MercadoPago

Create your Winkels account (free) and connect your MercadoPago from Argentina or Brazil. That's where we pay your commissions.

2

Get your code

Once linked, we issue you a unique personal code to share with merchants.

3

Share and refer

Every store that signs up with your code is linked to you automatically.

4

You get your commission

For every monthly subscription payment the referred store makes, you earn 20% for 2 months in your MercadoPago.

How and how much you earn

Same rules for everyone. What you see here is exactly what you get.

20% commission

On the net subscription payment of the referred store.

For 2 months

You earn on the first 2 months each referral pays. If they pay the year upfront, we pay all 2 commissions together.

ARS or BRL

You get paid in the same currency the referred store pays.

Via MercadoPago

We pay it to your linked MercadoPago account. It becomes available 14 days after the store pays.

Example

How your commission scales

You earn 20% of the monthly subscription each store you refer pays, for 2 months. The more stores you add, the more commissions you accumulate.

Referred storesYour commission per paymentTotal commissions (2 commissions per store)
5 stores20%5 × 2 = 10 commissions
20 stores20%20 × 2 = 40 commissions
50 stores20%50 × 2 = 100 commissions

Each store earns you up to 2 commissions and then runs out: to keep earning you need to refer new stores. If you refer several at once, their commissions run in parallel — they do not stack one after another. The amount depends on the plan each one signs up for; unpaid or refunded months do not count.

Program terms

  • Personal dashboard with referrals, payments and commissions in real time.

What is not included

FAQ

Most asked questions

No. You can join the program by just linking your MercadoPago account, without opening a store. If you also own a store, you can still refer.
