Juuhudi Partner Program

Help people sell.
Earn with Juuhudi

Many people are selling items they no longer use. The Juuhudi Partner Program helps you earn when you refer them to Juuhudi and they list an item.

Why it exists

Why we built the partner program

Juuhudi is a community marketplace where people participate and benefit from their effort. The new Juuhudi Partner Program captures this vision in four ways:

More earnings

Juuhudi already helps members earn by selling items in a trusted environment. The new Juuhudi Partner Program now helps members earn more by referring sellers to the platform.

More items for sale

When partners refer more sellers to the marketplace, members get access to a greater number of items, making it easier for buyers to find what they are looking for.

More potential buyers

Marketplaces mean nothing if sellers cannot find buyers. The Partner Program creates more awareness, which brings more potential buyers to the market, helping sellers sell faster.

More community

Sustainable communities ensure everyone who participates benefits in one way or another. Juuhudi helps members benefit from each other through buying, selling, and now, the Juuhudi Partner Program.

Everyone else

Earn from referrals when you share your link to all the online places you visit.

Two ways you get paid

Earn from every new seller you bring, then keep earning as they list again.

A share of every first listing

Every seller you refer earns you a share of their first listing fee. The more sellers you bring in a calendar month, the bigger the share.

Example: A seller you referred lists a KSh 60,000 laptop and pays a KSh 400 listing fee. As your 80th referred seller this month, they earn you KSh 360 (90%).

Your share of each first listing fee, by seller number in the month
1Sellers 1 to 10 in a month: 20% of each first listing fee
11Sellers 11 to 20 in a month: 30% of each first listing fee
21Sellers 21 to 30 in a month: 40% of each first listing fee

61Sellers 61 to 70 in a month: 80% of each first listing fee
71+From your 71st seller in a month: 90% of each first listing fee

Repeat earnings for 12 months

Each seller you refer helps your status rise. Each rank you reach means you earn more every time your sellers list again, for 12 months after their first listing. Your rank counts every seller you have ever referred and never goes down.

Example: You have referred many sellers to Juuhudi over several months and you are now an Associate. A seller you referred in January lists several household items plus a car for sale in June and pays a KSh 2,500 listing fee. You earn KSh 500 (20%).

Common questions

Before you start referring

Who can become a Juuhudi partner?

Any Juuhudi member with a complete profile may join. You do not need a large following or extensive networks. Commitment and effort matter more than audience size.

How do I join, and when will I hear back?

Press Join the waitlist on this page. You need a Juuhudi account with a complete profile. We will let you know when the program opens, and selected members from the waitlist will be invited to complete their registration and receive a referral link.

What counts as a qualifying referral?

A referral qualifies once the person you refer joins Juuhudi, lists an item for sale, pays the listing fee and their listing goes live. Registrations and unfinished listings do not qualify on their own.

Can I refer an existing Juuhudi member?

No. Only people who create a new Juuhudi account through your referral link qualify. Existing members, self referrals and duplicate accounts do not qualify.

How are referrals tracked?

Each partner gets a personal referral link. When someone joins through your link and becomes a qualifying seller, it shows up in your partner dashboard along with what you have earned. If more than one partner refers the same person, the first valid referral receives credit.

How much can I earn?

You earn a share of the listing fee your referral pays for their first item. Your share depends on how many sellers you bring in a calendar month: 20% for your first 10, 30% for the next 10, rising to 90% from your 71st. Listing fees depend on the item's selling price, so referring someone who lists a KSh 60,000 laptop (KSh 400 fee) earns you KSh 80 at 20% and KSh 360 at 90%. From Pro rank, at 301 sellers, you also earn a share of every new listing's fee from referred sellers for 12 months after their first listing: 10% as a Pro, 20% as an Associate and 30% as a Senior. There is no fixed limit on genuine referrals unless a particular campaign states otherwise.

Where can I share my referral link?

You can share it through WhatsApp, social media, email, your website or direct conversations. Do not spam people, make misleading claims or present yourself as an official Juuhudi representative. Public promotions should make it clear that you may earn a referral reward.

When and how will I be paid?

Your earnings appear in your partner dashboard. Each one becomes payable 7 days after the seller's listing goes live, while Juuhudi checks that the referral meets the program rules. We pay what you have earned to M-Pesa on the 5th of each month once it reaches KSh 500. Smaller amounts carry over to the next month. Your share for each month's sellers is confirmed when the month ends.

Why might a referral be declined?

A referral may be declined if the seller is not new, creates their account more than 30 days after first using your link, has their listing rejected or removed within 7 days of it going live, or is connected to duplicate, false or self referred accounts.

Does using my referral link cost the seller more?

No. Referred sellers pay the same listing price as everyone else. Your reward is paid by Juuhudi and is not added to the seller’s fee.
