Community ambassador
You're the person your community trusts — church groups, associations, family networks. Share your code person to person and earn from everyone you bring.
Partner program
Earn by connecting
your community home.
People already ask you how to send data and airtime to Ethiopia. As a Beamline partner you get a personal referral code — and every time someone who signed up with your code tops up, gifts a bundle, starts a Family Plan, or buys a travel eSIM, you earn a share. Real money, paid monthly, tracked in your own dashboard.

Three ways to partner
Which partner program fits you?
Three programs, one payout model. Community ambassadors share person to person, creators share with an audience, and local businesses put a QR poster on the counter. You don't need a company or a following to apply for the first one.
Creator
TikTok, Instagram, YouTube — if your audience is the habesha diaspora, get a code per platform, see which one converts, and earn from every follower who joins.
Local Business
Habesha groceries, restaurants, hookah lounges, beauty salons, barber shops — we give you a counter poster with your own QR code. Customers scan it at checkout; you earn from every one who signs up.
| Program | Who it's for | What you share | Where |
|---|---|---|---|
| Community ambassador | Church groups, associations, family networks — no business or following needed | A personal code and share link | Anywhere |
| Creator | TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube creators with a habesha diaspora audience | A separate code per platform, so you can see which converts | Anywhere |
| Local Business | Habesha groceries, restaurants, hookah lounges, beauty salons, barber shops | A print-ready counter poster with your own QR code | US & Canada |

All three earn the same way: a share of Beamline's margin on what the people you refer actually spend, for their first 12 months. Local Business is limited to the US and Canada for now because a shop's walk-in customers need a US or Canadian number to sign up.
How it works
How does the Beamline partner program work?
Apply once, get approved by a person, then share your code however suits you. Earnings are calculated monthly on what your referrals actually spend — not on clicks, not on signups that never buy anything.

Before you apply
What partners ask first.
How do partners get paid?
You earn a share of Beamline's margin on what the people you refer actually spend — airtime, data bundles, Family Plans, and travel eSIMs all count. Earnings are worked out monthly once the month closes and sent to the payout destination you set in your dashboard.
Does it cost anything to join?
No. Applying is free, the dashboard is free, and the print-ready QR poster for local businesses is free. There's no fee, no minimum, and nothing to buy — you earn from referrals and never pay to take part.
How long do I earn from each person?
Twelve months from the month they signed up with your code — counted per person, not from when you joined. Someone you refer today earns for you just as long as someone you referred a year ago did.
Do I need a business or a following?
No. The community ambassador program exists for exactly that — people with no shop and no audience, just a network who already ask them how to send airtime and data home. No company, no registration, no follower count.
How do I know it's working?
Your dashboard shows signups attributed to your code and what you've earned, as activity comes in rather than only at month end. Creators can request a code per platform to see which one actually converts.
What if an order gets refunded?
Earnings track real margin, so a refunded order is deducted. If that month has already been finalised, the adjustment carries into a later payout instead. What you're paid reflects what genuinely stuck, not what was briefly charged.
Questions
Partner program FAQ.
How do Beamline partners get paid?
You earn a share of Beamline's margin on what the people you refer actually spend — airtime, data bundles, Family Plans, and travel eSIMs all count. Earnings are calculated monthly once the month closes, and paid to the payout destination you set in your partner dashboard. There's a monthly ceiling on any single partner's payout as an anti-fraud backstop.
Does it cost anything to become a partner?
No. Applying is free, the partner dashboard is free, and the print-ready QR poster for local businesses is free. There is no fee, no minimum, and nothing to buy — you earn from referrals and never pay to take part.
How long do I keep earning from someone I refer?
The earning window runs for the referred person's first 12 months, counted from the month they signed up with your code — not from when you joined. Each person you refer carries their own 12-month window, so someone referred today earns for you just as long as someone referred a year ago did.
Who can become a Beamline partner?
There are three programs. Community ambassadors share a code person to person through church groups, associations, and family networks. Creators on TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube get a code per platform. Local businesses — habesha groceries, restaurants, hookah lounges, beauty salons, barber shops — get a counter poster with their own QR code, and that program is currently open in the US and Canada only.
Do I need a business or a big following to join?
No. The community ambassador program exists precisely for people with no shop and no audience — just a network who already ask them how to send airtime and data home. You don't need a company, a registered business, or a follower count to apply.
How do I track how many people signed up with my code?
Your partner dashboard shows signups attributed to your code and what you've earned, updated as activity comes in rather than only at month end. Creators can request a separate code per platform so you can see which one actually converts.
How long does approval take?
Usually about two business days. Every application is read by a person rather than auto-approved, which is slower but keeps the program clean. If you're approved you get an email with a secure activation link for your dashboard.
What happens if a referral's order gets refunded?
Earnings track real margin, so a refunded order is deducted. If the month it belonged to has already been finalised, the adjustment carries into a later payout instead. It means the figure you're paid reflects what genuinely stuck, not what was briefly charged.
What do I actually share with people?
A short referral code, a link, and a QR code. Someone who taps your link or scans your QR gets the code carried through to the app's signup screen, so they don't have to remember or retype it. Local business partners also get a print-ready counter poster.
