Or as we like to say, STARS! Make your network WORK for you and boost your income stream. With STARS, you have an opportunity to create a long term annuity income for yourself, simply by leveraging your network to introduce businesses to the benefits of ShareRing Link.
This page will cover everything you need to know about becoming a successful ShareRing Trusted Affiliate so you can start earning rewards soon.
What is the STAR System?
The program is an incentive for our community and wider network to assist with engaging with potential clients and onboarding them into ShareRing Link. In addition to a share of the revenue that’s earned from each client, ShareRing will offer regular prizes and other rewards that are only accessible to Affiliates.
The Affiliates will also have exclusive access to discounts that can be offered to their clients, such as 6 months free subscription and discounted transaction fees.
The big question: How much can I earn with STARS?
For every client you sign up, you will earn 20% of the total transaction fees that are collected from that client. If the client remains after their 6 month ‘free subscription’ period, you will also earn an additional $100 per month whilst that client is signed up and using ShareRing Link.
You also have a few choices around how you are paid with STARS. You need to indicate your preference when you sign up, and can only change this once per year, so think carefully before making your decision.
Option 1: Payment in FIAT to your nominated bank account
Option 2: Payment in USDC/USDT to your crypto wallet
Option 3: Payment in ShareToken to your ShareLedger at 20% higher rate.
Each option has it’s own benefits and would need to be chosen based on your own personal circumstances.
Below are a few examples of the earning potential with a typical client:
Example 1 – Medium sized family run Hotel with 500 new guests per week.
Monthly subscription fee (after 6 months) – $490
Transaction fees ($0.60 per guest) – $1300 per month
With STARS, you could earn:
Months 1-6 – $260 per month
From month 6 onwards – $360 per month
Example 2 – Small Crypto Exchange, with 2500 new users per month
Monthly subscription fee (after 6 months) – $490
Transaction fees ($1 per new user) – $2500 per month
With STARS, you could earn:
Months 1-6 – $500 per month
From month 6 onwards – $600 per month
If you brought on only 2 new clients per month, your passive earning potential would be between $7200 and $12000 per month. If you choose to receive this as staked ShareToken, it would increase to between $8640 and $14,400 per month. There are some T’s and C’s, so please reach out so we can assess the best scenario for you.

Examples of Companies that Might be a Good Fit for ShareRing Link
Whilst there’s really no limit to the type of company that would benefit from what ShareRing Link and ShareRing Me can do, we have identified a few industry and business types that would benefit most from our products. We call these our ‘low hanging fruit’, as they should be easier to bring on board when comparing to other types of organisations. Here’s a few industry sectors you might like to consider. You’re not limited to these though, so if you have some other opportunities, let us know:
Sector | Segments |
KYC/CDD | Banks, Insurance Companies, Fund managers, Crypto Exchanges |
Age Verification (18+) | Liquor, Gaming, Adult Content |
Travel Industry | Travel Visas, Hotel Check-in, Pre-payment, Membership |
E-Commerce | Online stores, Social Media Platforms, Membership Sites |
Within each sector, there are different ‘tiers’ of companies, as outlined below. We highly recommend that you stick to the Tier 3 opportunities, as they are known to have a faster ‘deal closure’ time, with little to no ‘customisation’..
Tier 1 (Customised Client) – Large organisations with more complex requirements, are geographically diverse, and have large transactional volumes. These Clients may require some customisation or white labelling.
Tier 2 (White labelled Client) – Medium size organisations that have an established business, may have multiple sites, but have less organisational complexity. These Clients may require white labelling – so please contact the Affiliate help desk for more information on how to arrange this.
Tier 3 (Standard Link Client) – Self-service Clients, such as small businesses, may be single sites, ecommerce sites, and have management performing multiple roles.
FAQ
Do I need to manage the sale from end to end (introduction to closure)?
No, we are happy for you to get the interest of the client and then introduce them to our sales team so they can do the sales closure and sign the contract with the client. However, keep in mind that the more you demo and discuss with the client, the higher the chance of getting them signed up.
Do I need to ‘onboard’ the client (ie. set up their queries)?
No, that is something that our post sales support team will do with the client.
Are there minimum sales targets that I need to hit?
No, as an affiliate, you manage your own hours and can decide when and how to help bring clients into the ShareRing ecosystem.
What languages do you currently support?
At the moment, we only support English for our current sales rollout. If you have opportunities in other languages, please let us know and we’ll evaluate it on a case by case basis.
When do I stop receiving payments?
You’ll only stop receiving payments when you decide not to be a reseller, when the client stops paying, or if you break any of our acceptable behaviour policy terms.
Can I do anything to try and bring a client on board?
Almost, but please refrain from anything illegal, including bribery or other illegal sales practices.
