Shopify

Want help building your online shop?

Start on Shopify, then I can build the storefront, products, and payments for you — or you can do it yourself with the free trial.

Try Shopify free for 3 days, then $1/month. I earn a commission when you become a paying merchant.

1. Open my Shopify link and start a store.
2. Use the trial to claim your store name and pick a theme.
3. Want me to build it? Book a call and we will scope the work; when you are ready, choose a Basic, Grow, or Advanced plan.

The commission is paid to me by Shopify and does not change what you pay. Commission is only earned on full-price Basic, Grow, or Advanced plans; Plus, Enterprise, and Retail are excluded.

DigitalOcean

$25 in DigitalOcean credit

Developer-friendly cloud for VPS, Docker, and self-hosted apps — a small server without the big-provider learning curve.

I get $25 in DigitalOcean credit once you sign up and pay your first $25 of usage — no extra cost to you.

1. Open my referral link and create a DigitalOcean account.
2. Add a payment method and use the platform normally.
3. Once you have spent and paid your first $25, I receive $25 in credit.

Referral credit is paid to me by DigitalOcean and does not change what you pay. DigitalOcean sets the exact credit rules per account.

Hostinger

Self-hosting-friendly VPS hosting

Affordable VPS plans that suit a small self-hosted stack — application pending.

Proton

Private email, VPN, and drive

Privacy-first tools for moving your mail and files off Big Tech — application pending.

Wealthsimple

Give $25, get $25

A simple way to invest, save, and hold cash in one app — good if you are starting to invest or want a high-interest account.

We both get $25 when you deposit $100 or more.

1. Open my invite link — or enter code U3IQYG when you sign up.
2. Create your Wealthsimple account and deposit $100 or more into your first account.
3. Do it within 30 days of signing up, and we both get $25.

New Wealthsimple clients only. 30-day deposit window; full terms on Wealthsimple's site.

Wise

Transfer money abroad for less

Mid-market exchange rates and a multi-currency card — useful for travel, freelance income, or sending money to family abroad.

You get one fee-free transfer up to CA$800 — the value comes off the transfer fee, not as cash. I earn a cash referral reward once you qualify.

1. Open my invite link and create a new personal Wise account.
2. Make more than CA$300 in eligible cross-currency transfers or card payments — it can be across several transactions.
3. Use your fee-free transfer voucher on a transfer of up to CA$800.

New personal accounts only. Same-currency transfers, ATM withdrawals, cash-like, crypto, and gambling payments do not count. The voucher usually expires about six months after signup, and Wise sets the exact offer per account.

Tangerine

$50 for you, $50 for me

No-fee daily chequing and savings with an ongoing referral offer — good if you want a free everyday bank account.

Get $50 when you open your first eligible account, deposit $250 within 60 days, and keep at least $250 there for 60 straight days. I get $50 too.

1. Open a Tangerine account through my link, or enter Orange Key 64537010S1 during signup.
2. Deposit at least $250 within 60 days of becoming a client.
3. Keep a balance of at least $250 for 60 consecutive days.
4. Your $50 bonus is deposited within 30 days of qualifying.

New clients only (never had an ING Direct or Tangerine account). Credit cards do not count as the eligible first account; mortgages and loans have no minimum deposit. Cannot be combined with other enrollment bonuses.
