Ruby Lane provides many programs to lower your fees.

 
Ruby Lane Referral Program
Refer a New Shop to Ruby Lane
  • receive an account credit from $40 up to $100!
We know that Ruby Lane's quality shops know of other potential quality shops that buyers would enjoy shopping with, and we appreciate shops referring others, so we want to ensure that it is worthwhile for them to do so.

We ask each new shop owner when they request to open "Who referred you?" The referred shop must input your shop's name or nickname at the time they request to open in order for your shop to get the credit, so please be sure they have it when referring them. If a prospective new shop owner requests to open and is asked to make changes to their shop prior to requesting to open for the second time or more, the prospective new shop owner must re-input your shop's name or nickname "Who referred you?" prior to resubmitting their request to open in order for the your shop to receive the credit.

Based on the length of time the your shop has been continuously on Ruby Lane at the time the new shop is opened, you receive a bonus account credit as follows:

If your shop has been open ...

  • 1 year or less: $40
  • more than 1 year but less than 2 years: $60
  • between 2 and 5 years: $80
  • more than 5 years: $100

NOTE: This program is automated. We regret that we cannot accept requests for Referral Bonus after a shop has opened - there are no exceptions. An existing shop cannot receive referral credit for opening a second shop, even if their shops are not linked. A credit is issued at the time the referred shop is approved and officially opened on the site.

Make a Referral Credit entry only if you are a shop owner new to Ruby Lane. Returning shops, or previous shop owners opening new shops are ineligible.
