How the programme works

Sign up

Fill in your name and email below. Your code appears on screen immediately — no waiting.

Get your share kit

Along with the code comes a set of graphics carrying your name, ready for group chats or your own feed.

Share it

Your friend fills in the consultation form and enters your code. VNIS then advises them free of charge, like any other enquirer.

Earn your commission

When your friend signs a service agreement with VNIS, you receive the commission the two of us agreed.

Get your referral code

Two required fields and you are done. The code appears on screen.

What you get

What the programme gives you

Your own code, clear attribution

One code per person. When your friend enters it, that enquiry is credited to you — nobody has to remember who sent whom.

Graphics with your name

Share images in the VNIS identity, pre-filled with your name and code. Download and post; no design work needed.

Free advice for your friend

Their first guidance session carries no fee, exactly as for every other VNIS enquirer.

No quotas

No targets, no deadline to refer a certain number. Referring one person is fine.

Transparent progress

You can ask about the status of anyone you referred at any time — within what that person has agreed to share.

Leave whenever

Tell us you want to stop and we stop using your data and retire your code.

Are you an organisation rather than an individual?

If you are a language centre, a consultancy or any organisation with an existing student base, the Recruitment Partner programme fits better: a contract, per-institution commission rates, a portal account and access to the partner-school catalogue.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Is there any fee?

No. Signing up and using a referral code are both free.

How much is the commission?

It depends on the service the person you referred takes up. VNIS discusses and agrees it with you in writing before any payment arises; there is no preset figure.

Does my friend get a discount?

The programme currently carries no discount for the referred person. Their first guidance session is free, as it is for everyone.

When am I paid?

After the person you referred signs a service agreement and meets the payment obligations under it.

Am I approved immediately?

You receive a code straight away so you can start sharing. Confirming your status as a referrer and agreeing commission is something VNIS reviews and comes back to you on.

How is my data used?

Only to contact you about the referral programme and to reconcile commission. See our Personal Data Protection Policy; you may withdraw consent at any time.
