Holm Partners
You already tell people how to look after a house. Get paid every month you do.
Send a homeowner to Holm. When they subscribe, you earn a flat $5 every month they keep paying — for the life of that subscription, not for three months and not as a one-off finder's fee. Twenty customers is $100 a month, every month, whether you speak to them again or not.

Get your link
Every Holm account has a permanent partner link. Open Settings → Refer & earn and copy it. Nothing to apply for, no forms, no approval queue.
Send it to someone with a house
A closing gift. A follow-up to a past client. A homeowner asking who fixed your roof. They click, they sign up, and they are tied to you permanently — no code for them to remember, no window that expires.
Get paid every month they stay
The moment their payment clears, $5 lands in your balance. Then again next month. And the month after. You do nothing further.
What it actually pays
A flat $5 per customer per month. It does not change with the plan they buy, it is not a percentage of anything, and it does not stop after a set number of months. That makes the arithmetic boring, which is the point — you can check it yourself.
| Referred customers | Every month | Year one | After 3 years |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | $25 | $275 | $875 |
| 20 | $100 | $1,100 | $3,500 |
| 50 | $250 | $2,750 | $8,750 |
Every figure on this page is $5 x customers x months. Nothing is typed in by hand — the page calculates it from the same rule the Holm ledger pays from. It assumes each customer stays subscribed for the period shown; real customers cancel, and when one does, their $5 stops.
Yearly-billed vs monthly-billed: the same money, at different speeds
Over twelve months, both are worth exactly $60 to you. The difference is when it arrives and how sure it is. An annually-billed customer has already paid for the whole year, so all twelve months land in your balance at once. A monthly customer trickles in $5 at a time, and any month of it can stop.
One annually-billed customer
Paid up front$60in year one
Their whole year lands at once, already paid for — they cannot cancel a year they have bought. Their free month comes off next year's bill, which is far bigger than a month, so every one of your twelve months still earns.
One monthly-billed customer
Paid in twelve$55in year one
$5 at a time, and any month of it can stop if they cancel. Their free month covers their second bill exactly, so that one month earns nothing — eleven in year one, twelve every year after.

| One monthly-billed customer | $5 | — | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $55 |
Annual renewals are shown landing in month one — in reality they land on that customer's own anniversary. Either way, twelve months of subscription earns twelve shares.
It recurs, so it stacks
This is the part a one-off finder's fee cannot do. Last year's customers keep paying you while this year's are added on top. Nobody has to sell anything twice.
| Referred customers | End of year 1 | End of year 2 | End of year 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | $275 | $575 | $875 |
| 20 | $1,100 | $2,300 | $3,500 |
| 50 | $2,750 | $5,750 | $8,750 |
Straight-line projection: it assumes every customer stays subscribed for the whole period and that you add none after the first year. It is arithmetic, not a forecast — real customers churn, and a churned customer's $5 stops with them.

Your projected earnings
- Every month, once they are all subscribed
- $60
- Your first year
- $680
- Every year after
- $720
- Total after 3 years, adding nobody new
- $2,120
You would clear the $25 payout minimum in month 1, and that first payout is released 30 days after it is earned.
Year one is $40 lighter than the years after it, because the free month you are giving your monthly-billed customers is a month you do not earn on. That is the offer working, not a deduction.
- Assumes every customer subscribes and then stays subscribed for the whole period. Real customers cancel; when one does, their $5 stops that month and starts again only if they come back.
- Assumes you hold a paid Holm plan of your own the entire time. Earning requires it — see the terms below.
- Capped at 100 referred customers. Past that the arithmetic still holds but the premise stops being realistic for one person, so this page stops projecting.
- Figures are before tax and before any payout minimum. Balances under $25 roll over to the next month rather than being paid.
What you actually say
Copy one of these. They are written to be said out loud or pasted into a message without editing.
One last thing before I hand these over. Everything about this house — the warranties, the inspection, who serviced what, what it cost — is in this folder today, and scattered across your inbox by next year. Holm keeps it for you: you photograph a receipt, it files it, and it reminds you when the water heater is due. Here's my link, it gets you your first month free.
Hi [name] — not a sales call. I keep getting asked by clients where their home paperwork went, so I've started pointing people at Holm. It's the record of the house: what's in it, what it cost, what it needs next. Two minutes to set up. Here's my link if it's useful — first month is free.
While the work is fresh — get it into Holm before you forget it. Photos, the invoice, the warranty, who did it and when. If you ever sell, you can show what was done instead of just saying it. Here's my link, first month's on me.
The terms, in full, before you send anyone
Nothing here is buried, because a partner who feels misled is worse than no partner at all.
- You earn $5 for every month they pay — for life
- Not a percentage, not a first-year-only deal, and it does not change with the plan they buy. Every month their subscription is paid for, you earn $5. If they pay for a whole year at once, all twelve months — $60 — land in your balance when that payment clears.
- You have to be a Holm customer yourself
- Earning requires an active paid Holm plan of your own. If yours ends, your earnings run through the end of the period you have already paid for, and then stop — Holm keeps a cancelled plan active until the date you paid through, so you never lose a month you bought. Resubscribe and earning starts again on the next payment your referred customers make. The months in between are never paid retroactively.
- If they leave, it stops. If they come back, it restarts
- A referred customer who cancels, lapses, or is refunded stops earning you money from that point. A fully refunded or disputed payment is reversed out of your balance. If that account subscribes again later, they are still tied to you and earning resumes.
- Paid monthly, held 30 days, $25 minimum
- Earnings are held for 30 days before they can be paid, because a customer can still request a refund after their payment clears and a payout cannot be taken back. Payouts run monthly. If your balance is under $25 it rolls over to the next month rather than being paid in dust — it is never lost.
- The homeowner you send gets a free month
- When their first subscription payment clears, Holm credits their account with one month of whatever plan they chose, which comes off their next invoice. It is applied automatically — no code to type, nothing to claim. It does not depend on your plan and it does not come out of your earnings.
- There is no cap and no expiry
- No limit on how many people you refer, how long they earn for, or how much you can be paid in total. There is no window in which a click has to convert — someone who signs up through your link is tied to you from that point on.
The legal shape of this
Holm Partner fees are paid for referring people to a software subscription. They are not a fee for referring or arranging any real-estate settlement service — not a sale, a mortgage, a title order, an insurance policy, or an appraisal — and nothing is paid for, conditioned on, or calculated from any real-estate transaction. Fees are earned only when a referred person independently chooses to buy a Holm subscription. If you hold a real-estate licence, your brokerage may still have its own rules about outside compensation: this page is not legal advice, and you should read the partner agreement with your broker and your own counsel before you sign it.
Read the partner agreementQuestions partners actually ask
When do I actually get paid?
Payouts run monthly. Each individual earning is held for 30 days first — a customer can still request a refund after their payment clears, and once money has left we cannot take it back. Balances of $25 or more are paid out; anything smaller rolls over to the following month rather than being paid in dust. Nothing is ever lost by rolling over.
What happens if my customer cancels?
Their $5 stops. You keep everything you have already earned from them. If they resubscribe later they are still tied to you, and earning resumes on their next payment. If a payment is fully refunded or disputed, that month's $5 is reversed out of your balance — which is exactly why earnings are held 30 days before payout.
Do I have to be a Holm customer myself?
Yes. Earning requires an active paid Holm plan of your own. If your plan ends, your earnings continue through the end of the period you have already paid for and then stop; a cancelled Holm plan stays active until the date you paid through, so you never lose a month you bought. Resubscribing starts earning again from the next referred payment onward — the gap is never back-paid. Plans start at $35 a month, so one customer covers a fifth of it and seven cover the lot.
Is this allowed if I hold a real-estate licence?
This is a software referral programme, not a settlement-service referral: you are paid for sending someone to a subscription product, and nothing is paid for or conditioned on a sale, a mortgage, a title order, or any other settlement service. That is the distinction the rules on real-estate referral fees turn on. It is still your brokerage's call whether they allow outside compensation, and this page is not legal advice — read the partner agreement with your broker and your own counsel before you sign.
What about tax — will I get a 1099?
Partner fees are income and you are responsible for reporting them. In the United States, a payer must issue a Form 1099-NEC once non-employee payments to you reach $2,000 in a calendar year — that threshold rose from $600 for payments made from 1 January 2026. Below the threshold the income is still taxable and still yours to report; only the form goes away. We are not tax advisers, so check with yours.
Can I refer contractors as well as homeowners?
Yes, but they are two different programmes. Holm is the homeowner product and this page is its partner programme. Contractors belong on Solis, our contractor product, which runs its own referral programme with its own link — one does not pay out through the other, so send each person to the right one.
What does the person I refer actually get?
A free month, applied automatically. When their first subscription payment goes through, Holm puts a credit worth one month of their plan on their account, which comes off their next invoice — so it lands as money on the account rather than as a skipped charge. There is no code for them to type and nothing for them to claim; signing up through your link is the whole of it. Their free month does not depend on your plan, and it does not come out of what you earn.
Does the plan they buy change what I earn?
No. It is a flat $5 a month whether they are on the cheapest plan or the most expensive one. We chose flat over a percentage so you never have to work out what you are owed, and so nobody is incentivised to push a homeowner onto a plan bigger than their house needs.
Is there a limit, or a deadline for them to sign up?
No to both. There is no cap on how many people you refer or how much you earn, and no window in which a click has to convert. Someone who signs up through your link is attributed to you from that point on.
