The verdict in three sentences
In 2026, a well-connected Ghanaian referral partner among Accra's merchants, associations and professionals can build recurring income simply by recommending web projects. The Kolonell grid pays 15 % + 5 % recurring on showcase sites, up to 8 % on institutional work, with no technical skill required. You just open the door: we handle quotes, production and follow-up.
The Kolonell referral program in detail
Becoming a referral partner means introducing a potential client to Kolonell and earning a commission once the project is signed and paid. You write no code and manage neither the technical relationship nor invoicing: your value is your network and your reputation in Accra.
| Segment | Sale commission | Recurring |
|---|---|---|
| Showcase site | 15 % | 5 % on maintenance |
| E-commerce | 12 % | 5 % on maintenance |
| Marketplace | 10 % | Per contract |
| Institutional | 8 % | Per contract |
The 5 % recurring on maintenance is the key: each referred client keeps paying you month after month while they stay with Kolonell. A portfolio of referred clients becomes an annuity.
