Referral program

How does it work?

  1. 1

    Get your code

    We suggest one from your name, for example ZAPH-MIRA for clients or ZAPH-P-MIRA for partners. Partners sign the terms first.

  2. 2

    They quote it

    The label quotes your code when they first contact us, before their first quote. Referrals cannot be added later.

  3. 3

    You earn

    Once they have paid ₹15,000 in stitching within 90 days of their first invoice. Client credit is added to your account; partners are paid monthly.

Rewards are based on production stitching charges actually received, before GST. Sampling, design, fabric and surcharges are excluded. Client credit is valid 6 months, for stitching only, never cash, and can cover up to 50% of an invoice. The welcome offer can't be combined with the repeat-order discount. Full terms below.

11. Your account in good standing

12. Privacy
