Your Review-Buddy Days in Davao Are About to Pay Off
What you'll actually earn when you refer the friend who's finally ready to list
Written by PropVela Editorial TeamPublished 3 min read

Back in your licensure review days in Davao, you two swapped notes, shared baon, and promised to help each other once you both got your licenses. Now she's texting you: she's finally ready to list her first few properties. Naturally, you think of PropVela.
Once PropVela launches, signing her up won't just be a favor. It can actually put money back in your pocket, in a very specific way.
Here's the sentence you need to remember, exactly as it works: Referral programme: 10% off your subscription for every qualifying referral this cycle, stacking up to 50%, plus a free month for every 5 qualifying referrals within 6 months of each other; the agent you refer gets 20% off their first invoice.
So while she enjoys a discount on her very first invoice, you get rewarded too, as long as the referral actually qualifies. And here's the part a lot of agents gloss over: A referral qualifies when the agent you referred moves from their free trial to a paid PropVela plan for the first time. Meaning, she has to go from just trying it out to actually subscribing. Simply signing up on your invite isn't enough yet.
Now, how does this actually land on your bill? The reward comes off your PropVela subscription bill: the percentage gets taken off your monthly invoice, and if you've banked a free month, it waives a whole invoice outright. No cash changes hands, nothing gets refunded, and you can't pass the reward to someone else. Straightforward lang.
But don't assume these rewards pile up forever. Your referral discount is counted within a 12-month cycle that starts from your own account creation date. At each new cycle it resets to zero, and referrals still pending from before the reset are forfeited. So if your review-class friend is still "thinking about it" when your cycle flips over, that potential reward disappears. Timing matters.
This is where the Davao connection actually helps you. You know her. You know she's serious about listing, not just curious. That means you can nudge her at the right moment, maybe even before your cycle resets, so the referral has a real shot at qualifying instead of quietly expiring.
Imagine this playing out for more than just one friend. Your batch mates from review, your former officemates, the agent you met at an open house, once PropVela launches, each of them who moves from trial to paid plan nudges your own subscription cost down. Stack enough qualifying referrals and you could be looking at a free month waiving an entire invoice.
If you want the full fine print, the complete rules live on the referral terms page, worth a skim once you start inviting people seriously.
For now, the move is simple: when PropVela launches, you and your Davao review buddy can both sign up, and once she goes from trial to paid, you'll see it reflected on your own invoice. Ready to get the ball rolling? Sign up at PropVela and be ready the moment it opens.
