How do I refer family or friends to paid clinical trials

If the eligibility steps below are met, you will receive $250 deposited directly into your bank account as soon as your referral doses on a study! You do NOT have to be a current/past participant or applicant to refer someone.

To participate in the program, referrers must fill out the Refer a Friend Form prior to the new participant applying for a study. This requirement ensures that individuals cannot claim referrals retroactively after participating in a study and then inquire about their friend’s payment.

Referred friends must sign up for a study using the same email address you provided for them during the referral. The email address used for study enrolment must match the one provided by the referrer to validate the referral and qualify for the program.

Criteria for Referred Participants:

1. Complete the Referral Form: Fill out the official “Refer a Friend” form before the new participant applies for a study. We will send your friend (referral) an email to let them know you have referred them.
2. New Participants Must Be New to Linear: The referred participant cannot have any existing record in Linear’s database, including previous applications or study participation.
3. Eligibility Requirements: Referrers must be 18 years or older. The Refer a Friend Form will only accept submissions from those above 18 years of age. Additionally, when eligible for payment, the referrer’s banking details with a valid form of ID (driver’s license, learner’s permit, passport, or proof of age card) are required for verification purposes.
4. Referral Payment Qualification: The referred participant must receive at least one dose of the study drug. Contact, pre-screening, screening, backup, or alternate participation alone will not qualify you for a referral payment.
5. Bank Details Verification: After participant dosing, eligible referrers will receive the “Bank Details for Referral Payment” form. Completing this form with the referrer’s BSB number, account number, and government-issued ID (driver’s license, passport, or proof of age card) is mandatory for payment processing. Incomplete or unverified information will result in forfeited payment.
6. Unique Referrals: Only one referral is allowed per new participant. In cases of multiple referrals, the first referral submitted will be considered valid, and the corresponding referrer will receive the payment.

Important notes

Participation in this study is entirely voluntary. Referrals have the right to refuse participation at any point, and coercion to participate for the sole purpose of a friend or referrer receiving a payment will disqualify them from the study.

Referrals are unlimited, but you only get paid per unique participant. For example, you can refer Alex to a study and receive $250 for his participation. You won’t get an additional referral bonus if Alex participates in further studies. However, you can refer others and receive a referral bonus for each new participant who completes the study.

It can take up to 2 – 4 weeks for the payment to be processed.
