Card credit

Introduce people. Earn credit on every card they send.

When someone you introduced to Kind Post pays for a card, you get $1.00 of card credit. That happens on every card they pay for, for 2 years. You spend the credit on your own cards.

The exact terms

When someone you introduced (by sending them a card, inviting them to sign one, or sharing your link) pays for a card, you earn $1 of Kind Post credit. That's for every card they pay for over the next 2 years.* Credit is spent on cards and applies automatically to your next one.

*Counts only if the person has no active introduction. Then it holds for 2 years.

How it works

Three steps, and you're probably doing the first one already.

Step 1

Introduce someone.

Send them a card, invite them to sign one of yours, or share your personal link. Any of those counts as an introduction.

Step 2

They pay for cards.

Each time they pay for a card in the next 2 years, you earn $1.00 of Kind Post credit. Every card, not just the first.

Step 3

You spend it on cards.

Credit sits in your account and comes off your next card automatically. You can also move it into a Circle's kitty.

An example

What it adds up to.

You send your sister a birthday card. She likes it and starts sending her own: about 5 cards a year. Over 2 years that's 10 cards, so you earn $10.00 of credit. A mailed card is $11.99 CAD, so that's most of one.

Then your sister introduces her friend Sam, who sends 4 cards a year. Your sister earns $1.00 on each of Sam's cards. You earn $0.25 on each, as long as both introductions are inside their 2 years: $2.00 over 8 cards.

It's a thank-you in card credit, not an income.

The fine print, in plain words

  • Two levels, and that's the cap. $1.00 from people you introduced, $0.25 from the people they introduce. Nothing past that, ever.
  • Credit only comes from cards someone actually pays for. Signing up earns nothing, and a card paid for entirely with credit doesn't earn anyone credit.
  • One introduction per person at a time. If someone already has an active introduction from someone else, yours doesn't replace it.
  • Credit is held in Canadian dollars. On a card or Circle kitty in US dollars, it's converted at the exchange rate when it's used, so its US-dollar value can move a little.
  • Cash-out to your bank is coming. When it launches, you'll be able to cash out once you have $100. Until then, credit is spent on cards.
  • Credit becomes spendable once the card has actually gone out.
