Trave referral programme

Know a contractor who'd get on with Trave?

You don't need to be a Trave customer. If you know a contractor still running jobs off spreadsheets and WhatsApp, put their name in below and we'll take it from there. You get a thank-you when they sign up, and they get a discount for coming through you.

The way you told us to: a direct call, an intro from you, or a mention of your name. We'll confirm to you when we've reached them.

03

They see Trave

A 30-minute walkthrough set up for a business their size, with a price to match and their referral discount already on it.

Once their first invoice is paid, your €500 is released. We'll email you when it's on its way.

Who to refer

The contractors Trave is built for

Trave works best for growing contractors who have outgrown spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups but don't want enterprise software. If someone you know fits the list, they're a good referral.

  • ✓Main contractors, or specialist trades and subcontractors
  • ✓Roughly 20 to 100 staff, with a few live projects at a time
  • ✓Based in Ireland or the UK
  • ✓A management layer: a QS, contracts manager or site managers, not just the owner
  • ✓Not already a Trave customer
  • ✓Someone you'd be happy to have your name attached to

Three messages you can copy and send

Swap in your own words if you like. If you use Trave, paste your personal link from the app where it says [your link]. If not, replace [your link] with trave.io/book-a-demo, tell them to mention your name, and put their details in the form above so we can match it up.

Hi [name], quick one. We've been running our projects, POs and timesheets through a platform called Trave and it's been a good move for us.

The rewards

Straight answers on what's paid, and when

What you get

€500 for each contractor you refer who becomes a Trave customer. There's no cap on how many you can refer.

What they get

10% off their first year of Trave, taken off their first invoice. Their pricing is otherwise exactly what any customer of their size would pay.

When it's paid

A referral qualifies once their first invoice is paid. Rewards are paid through our referral partner within 30 days of qualifying, and you'll be asked for payout details when your first one is due.

Questions

Things people usually ask

Do I need to be a Trave customer?+

No. Anyone who knows a contractor can refer them: subcontractors, architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, accountants, suppliers, or a mate in the trade. Trave users can also share a personal link from inside the app, which does the tracking for them.

Do I have to give you their contact details?+

Only if you're happy to and they're happy for you to. If you'd rather introduce us yourself, pick that option on the form and we'll wait for your intro.

What if they already talk to Trave?+

If the business is already a customer, or already in a live conversation with us, the referral won't qualify. We'll tell you either way so nothing is left hanging.

How do I know where a referral stands?+

We email you when we've made contact, when a demo is booked, and when the referral qualifies. Trave users can also see every referral from the Refer a company panel in the app.

Is there a limit?+

No. Every qualifying referral earns the same reward. If you know five contractors who fit, refer five.

Do I pay tax on it?+

Rewards are paid to you or your business as a referral fee and may be taxable. That's between you and your accountant; we'll give you a record of what was paid.

Can I refer someone outside Ireland or the UK?+

Ireland and the UK are where Trave is focused right now. If you know a contractor elsewhere, send them anyway and we'll let you know whether we can take them on.

Programme terms

Trave referral programme terms

Last updated: 8 Nov 2026. These terms sit alongside the Trave Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

1. Who can take part

Anyone aged 18 or over may refer a business to Trave (the "Referrer"), whether or not they are a Trave customer. Trave employees, contractors and their immediate family are not eligible.

2. What counts as a referral

A referral is a business (the "Referred Business") introduced to Trave either through the referral form on this page or through a Referrer's personal referral link from inside Trave. The Referred Business must not be an existing or previous Trave customer, or a business already in active discussion with Trave in the 90 days before the referral. Where two people refer the same business, the first referral Trave receives is the one that counts. A Referrer cannot refer a business they own or control.

3. Permission and data

By submitting a person's contact details, the Referrer confirms they have that person's permission to share them, or will make the introduction themselves. Trave contacts the Referred Business only in the way the Referrer selects. Referral data is processed under Trave's Privacy Policy; in-app referral tracking is provided by Cello (Powerplay GmbH) on Trave's behalf. The Referrer's first name may be shown to the Referred Business.

4. When a referral qualifies

A referral qualifies when the Referred Business signs a Trave subscription of at least 12 months and once their first invoice is paid, provided the subscription starts within 90 days of the referral being received.

5. The rewards

For each qualifying referral, the Referrer receives €500 (or the equivalent in the Referrer's local currency). The Referred Business receives 10% off their first year of its Trave subscription, applied to its first invoice. Rewards cannot be exchanged for other goods or services and are not transferable.

6. How rewards are paid

Referrer rewards are paid within 30 days of the referral qualifying, by bank transfer or through Trave's referral partner. The Referrer must provide valid payout details when asked; unclaimed rewards expire 12 months after they are earned. Rewards may be taxable and the Referrer is responsible for any tax due.

7. Fair use

Referrals must be personal introductions to people the Referrer knows. Referral links and this form must not be used for bulk or unsolicited submissions, posted on coupon or deal sites, used in paid advertising, or shared in ways that could mislead. Trave may withhold or reclaim rewards where it reasonably believes a referral was made in breach of these terms or is fraudulent.

8. Changes and ending the programme

Trave may change these terms or end the programme at any time by updating this page. Referrals that have already qualified will still be paid. These terms are governed by the laws of Ireland.

Got someone in mind?

Put their name in the form and we'll do the rest. €500 for you, 10% off their first year for them.
