20% of every subscription, for 24 months
Mustr's partner program is simple. You refer an Australian business that subscribes, you collect 20% of their subscription revenue every month for the next two years. Paid monthly. No tier games, no flat referral fees, no cap.
Apply to become a partnerPilot cohort — we're signing 30 SCHADS-specialist bookkeepers for the first wave. Applying takes 2 minutes; we review within two business days.
How it works
Three steps, one recurring revenue line
Introduce us
Share your partner link or forward a warm email. Your client signs up through either and we tag them to you automatically.
We onboard them
Direct founder support through a 60-day guided pilot. You don't have to learn our product, run demos, or handle support questions. Hand off and walk away.
You get paid
20% of your client's paid subscription, every month they stay a customer, for 24 months. Paid in the month following. Clear statements, Stripe-tracked, no reconciliation burden on your side.
The numbers
What one referral actually pays
Mustr's typical customer is an 11–50-employee SCHADS / NDIS / aged care provider. Here's what 20% of their subscription looks like in dollars.
| Customer band | 11–50 active employees (typical) |
| Standard rate | A$8 per active employee per month |
| Typical customer spend | A$8 × 15 employees = A$120 / month |
| Your revenue share | 20% of subscription |
| Your monthly recurring | A$24 / month |
| Duration | 24 months locked |
| Total per referral | A$576 over 24 months |
| Ten referrals in Year 1 | ~A$5,760 recurring (Y2 onward: larger) |

Larger clients scale
Pro rata
Larger customers — 51–200 or 201+ employee bands — pay more per month, so your 20% scales with them. Rev-share is paid against paid subscription revenue only; unpaid pilot periods, voluntary discounts you offer, and chargebacks are netted. Full terms in the partner agreement we share once you come on board.
Why your clients will thank you
Compliance confidence, not compliance anxiety
Compliance your clients need
Deterministic SCHADS engine with full audit trails. Payday Super ready. Right to Disconnect enforced. BOOT validation gates payroll export — your clients cannot accidentally export non-compliant pay. Other Modern Awards are on the roadmap.
Transparent pricing they'll love
One plan, four volume bands: A$9 / A$8 / A$7 / A$6 per active employee per month, GST inclusive. No add-on modules, no surprise billing lines. Inactive and terminated records do not bill.
Xero, MYOB, and more payroll exports
Timesheets, STP2 payloads, and ABA files flow into your clients’ existing payroll process. Mustr prepares exports for Xero, MYOB, Employment Hero Payroll, KeyPay, and Reckon.
We handle onboarding
Your client gets a 60-day guided pilot with direct founder support. You refer, we onboard. If a client needs a deeper FWO Audit Readiness Review or a non-standard EBA onboarding we have paid services for both — you still get rev-share on the subscription.
Who we're looking for
SCHADS-specialist bookkeepers and BAS agents
The first 30 partner slots are reserved for bookkeepers and BAS agents who already work the SCHADS / NDIS / aged care side of the market. We'll sign general accounting firms too, just a bit later.
You're a good fit if you can nod to most of these:
- Australian bookkeeper, BAS agent, or tax agent
- Works with at least three SCHADS / NDIS / aged care providers, OR three hospitality / construction / cleaning businesses
- Comfortable recommending modern payroll tools
- Happy to hand off pilot onboarding to us
FAQ
Common partner questions
Does rev-share stack with the Founding 50 discount?▼
Yes. If your referral signs up during the Founding 50 program (30% off for 12 months), your 20% is calculated against the discounted subscription they actually pay. When the discount ends, your 20% recalculates against the full price automatically.
What happens if my client churns inside 24 months?▼
Rev-share stops the month they stop paying. No clawback. If they resubscribe within the original 24-month window you pick up where the counter paused.
Can I stack it with a one-off referral bonus?▼
Not for now. We considered a flat-fee sign-on bonus on top of rev-share and decided against it — the point of rev-share is to align incentives with retention, and a bonus nudges the opposite way. Happy to revisit if a category of partner structurally benefits from it.
How are payments made?▼
Monthly, in arrears, via direct bank transfer within 14 days of the end of the calendar month. You get a Stripe-sourced statement showing which customers contributed to the month's total and the exact calculation.
Do I need to do anything technical?▼
No. You share a link or forward a warm-intro email; we do the rest. A partner dashboard is in the roadmap where you'll see your customers, MRR, and earnings — until then you get a monthly statement by email.
Is this an exclusive arrangement?▼
No. Recommend us alongside anything else that makes sense for your clients. We want our customers to have a great bookkeeper — even one who recommends a different WFM tool sometimes.
What paperwork is involved?▼
A one-page partner agreement, signed electronically. Covers payment terms, confidentiality, no-clawback, and termination. Australian law, reasonable terms, no noncompetes.
