Refer a friend to Irish Tax Rebates. When they receive a tax rebate and pay our fee, we pay you €20.
No limit on referrals. No cost to you or them. And your friend gets what every client gets — a full review of their last four tax years, no rebate, no fee.
In fact, most people we help had no idea they had money coming back. They’d never claimed medical expenses, didn’t know their job qualified for flat rate expenses, or hadn’t heard of the Rent Tax Credit. The odds are good that someone you know is in exactly that position — and rebate claims can go back four years.
How our refer a friend scheme works
Don’t have it to hand? Then enter your email below and we’ll send it to you.
Next, they complete our 60-second online form and authorise us as their tax agent with Revenue — the same process as every new client.
Then our team checks their records for overpaid tax and unclaimed credits and reliefs. So if they’re owed nothing, there’s no fee for them — instead you can trust that your friend got a review of their tax position, at no extra cost.
Once your friend’s rebate has issued and they’ve settled our fee, we send you your €20. So refer five friends, and that’s €100.
Why refer a friend to Irish Tax Rebates?
Because a referral is a promise, and we take that seriously. After all, we’ve been finding tax rebates for PAYE workers for years, from our office in Athy, and more than 250,000 people have used our service. Your friend deals with qualified tax professionals, we handle their claim directly with Revenue, and if they’re not owed anything they pay nothing.
Refer a friend: terms and conditions
Here is the short version. The full Refer a Friend terms and conditions apply in every case and take precedence over this summary.
- You must be 18 or over, resident in the Republic of Ireland, and have no outstanding fees on your own account.
- Your friend must be a new client who signs up in their own name, and we must record you as the referrer at the point they sign up. You cannot add or reassign a referral afterwards.
- You earn €20 once your friend’s claim secures a rebate and they pay our fee on it. We pay nothing if your friend turns out to owe no rebate or withdraws the claim.
- We process referral payments weekly and pay them through a secure Revolut payout link — instantly to your Revolut account, or within 3 working days if you choose bank transfer.
- Referrals between people in the same household are allowable. Referrals between jointly assessed couples are not.
FAQs
How much do I get for referring a friend?
€20 per successful referral — we pay you once your friend receives their rebate and settles our fee. There’s no limit on the number of referrals.
What does my friend get?
Our full service: a review of the current tax year and the four previous years, covering overpaid income tax, medical expenses, flat rate expenses, working-from-home relief, the Rent Tax Credit and more. And if we find no rebate, they pay nothing.
When do I get paid?
We pay referral rewards weekly through a secure Revolut payout link, once your friend’s rebate has issued and they’ve settled their fee. You can take it instantly into Revolut, or choose bank transfer and receive it within 2 working days. Because Revenue timelines vary, this typically happens within a few weeks of your friend applying.
What if my friend isn’t owed anything?
Then neither of you pays or receives anything — no fee for them, and the referral simply doesn’t convert. There’s no penalty, and you can still refer others.
Can I refer family members?
Yes — anyone who is a new client of Irish Tax Rebates counts, whether they’re a friend, family member or colleague. If you are jointly assessed with your spouse, this will not count as a referral.
Not a client yet yourself?
So start with your own rebate claim — it takes 60 seconds. Then you can refer a friend and earn €20 every time one of them claims a tax rebate.
