Absolute Clarity Referral Program

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Welcome to the Absolute Clarity Referral Program! We're excited to partner with you. This program is designed to reward you for sending new customers our way.

Getting Started

1. Why do you need my Social Security/Tax ID?

Yes. As a partner, you are an independent contractor. As a result we are required to issue a 1099-NEC every year you earn $600.00 or more through our referral program. Your sensitive information is securely stored and only viewable to you and our system during 1099-NEC processing.

2. How do I join the referral program?

To join, you must complete our online partner application form. Our team will review your application to ensure our businesses are a good fit. All partnerships are subject to our review and approval.

3. Is everyone approved to be a partner?

We review each application individually. We reserve the right to approve or deny any application at our sole discretion.

4. Is there any cost to join?

No, the program is completely free to join.

Submitting & Tracking Referrals

5. How do I submit a new referral?

You have two easy ways to submit referrals, both available in your partner portal once approved:

• Your Custom Link & QR Code (Recommended): Share this with your customers. When they use your link or scan your code to request service, they are automatically tagged as your referral.
• Manual Portal Entry: You can directly enter your referral's information into the portal yourself. (See consent rules in question 11).

6. How can I track the status of my referrals?

Your Referral Portal includes a dashboard where you can see the real-time status of every referral you've submitted.

7. What services qualify for a referral bonus?

A referral bonus is paid for a fully completed and paid auto glass replacement. At this time, minor services such as chip repairs are not eligible for a referral bonus.

Payments & Payouts

8. How much do I get paid per referral?

We offer a flat-rate bonus of $100.00 for every qualified and completed replacement through warranty providers.

9. When is a referral bonus "earned"?

A bonus is officially earned only after two conditions are met:

1. The auto glass replacement service for your referral has been fully completed.
2. Absolute Clarity has received full payment for that service (either from the customer or their warranty provider).

10. How often are referral bonuses paid out?

We process all earned referral bonuses on a quarterly basis. (Q1 paid in April, Q2 in July, Q3 in October, Q4 in January).

11. How will I receive my payment?

Payment details will be collected securely after you are approved. You will be responsible for any tax implications.

Rules & Legal

12. What are my legal responsibilities regarding customer consent?

This is our most important rule:

• If the customer uses your Link/QR Code: You're all set! By submitting their own info, they give us direct consent.
• If YOU manually submit their info: You must have the explicit permission of the person *before* you submit their information. You must inform them they may receive marketing calls/messages from Absolute Clarity.

13. What if two partners refer the same person?

The bonus will be paid to the partner whose link/code was used or who manually submitted the referral *first*.

14. Are there any tax implications?

Yes. As a partner, you are an independent contractor. You are solely responsible for paying all applicable taxes on this income. If you earn $600 or more, we will issue you an IRS Form 1099-NEC.
