~$29 per paid referral: a reasoned blended value of one paid referral (published terms: 7% of each referral's weekly earnings, for as long as they keep working; Not publicly posted (the person must apply through your link; an application without it cannot be credited later) cookie). A conservative model, not a guaranteed payout.

Good to know: SME Careers' own pages disagree on the rate: its member docs (updated October 2026) say 7% of weekly earnings, while its referral page advertises a $25 reward after the person's first week plus up to 15% of future earnings, or up to 35% for open roles. Ask which applies to you before promoting it. The value is the directory's model for a lifetime percentage in Business services, a comparison aid; what you earn is 7% of whatever the person earns.
