How the Affiliate and Referral Program Works

BreadWeb has two ways to earn: 1) Marketplace Affiliate for the Virtual Marketplace, and 2) Listing Hub Referral for paid listings/advertising. They pay from different places, so read this once and pick the one that matches what you’re promoting.

Short version: If you want to copy a product link and post it on WhatsApp / Telegram / Facebook / X / your group → use Marketplace Affiliate. If you want credit when a business pays to advertise on BreadWeb → use Listing Hub Referral.

1. Marketplace Affiliate (Virtual Marketplace)

This is tied to the Virtual Marketplace part of BreadWeb. You send buyers to products and when they buy, you get a commission.

An affiliate earns a 10% commission on qualifying Marketplace sales.

  • No website required. BreadWeb intentionally supports “copy and paste” affiliates.
  • You can share links in social media, Telegram, WhatsApp groups, Messenger, email – anywhere.
  • The system uses links like ?aff=YOURCODE (your dashboard shows examples).
  • Orders tracked to your code go into Pending Hold → then into Ready for Payout after the hold period (see policy).

Go to your affiliate dashboard here: Open Marketplace Affiliate Dashboard

That page shows: your email, affiliate code, money summary, and example buyer/seller links (from /affiliates/dashboard).

2. Listing Hub Referral (Advertisers)

This one is for the ListingsHub / advertising side. You refer a business that wants to post and pay for a listing on BreadWeb.

  • Here the advertiser must type your referral email on the form. That’s how we know who to pay.
  • When they pay for their plan, you earn the referral percent that’s configured for the Listing Hub program.
  • Payouts are processed (usually by PayPal) to the referral email on file.

Marketplace Affiliate vs. Listing Hub Referral
Marketplace Affiliate
  • Promote products/services in the Virtual Marketplace
  • Just copy & share your link
  • Great for social media / groups
  • Tracks with ?aff=CODE and cookies
  • View earnings: /affiliates/dashboard
Listing Hub Referral
  • Promote advertisers who pay to list on BreadWeb
  • Advertiser must enter your email
  • Great for B2B / your business contacts
  • Pays to the referral email
  • View earnings: /Referrals/My

Payouts, holds, and safety

Both programs follow the same safety idea: new earnings sit in a short hold window to protect from refunds, disputes, or fraud. After that, they move to Ready for payout and admins batch-pay them. Marketplace Affiliate payouts are issued through Stripe Connect to your connected account (subject to admin review).

For the detailed numbers, read: Fees, Commissions, and Payouts Policy.

Tip: if you promote both, tell people clearly which link to use. Marketplace links should be clicked, Listing Hub referrals must write your email.
