Partner program
Send us an event. Get paid the day after it happens.
Funeral directors, pastors, DJs, photographers, planners, HR managers, salons, past guests: you already get asked “where should we have it?” Answer with The 5200 and we pay you for it.
$100 per event
For every event you send that takes place, plus 5% of any in-house catering they order (up to $250 per event). No limit on how many.
They save $50
Anyone who books with your code or link gets $50 off. You are not “selling” anything; you are handing a friend a discount.
Paid fast, by Zelle
The morning after the event, once the customer has paid in full. You get a text and an email at every step so you always know where your money is.
How it works
- Apply below (two minutes). We approve partners personally, usually the same day.
- You get a personal code, a link and a print-ready flyer with a QR code.
- Share it however you like: a text, a business card, a church bulletin, your Instagram, the flyer on your counter.
- They book online at the5200.com. Your code is attached automatically; they see their $50 off right away.
- Event happens, customer has paid in full → your payout goes out by Zelle the next morning.
5 completed referrals in a calendar year makes you a Preferred Partner: a $250 bonus and a listing on our website, and we send business your way too.
Who this is for
- Funeral homes — families need a repast room within days. We hold space for you; the family gets $50 off or, if your policy prefers, we pass your referral fee to the family as a further discount.
- Churches & ministries — repasts, anniversaries, banquets, youth events.
- DJs, photographers, planners, bakers, decorators — you hear about the party before anyone else does.
- HR & office managers — holiday parties, retirements, team events.
- Barbers, stylists, nail techs — you talk to 30 people a day.
- Past guests — give a friend $50 off, get $100 after their event (first booking only).
What you are referring people to
A newly renovated 6,500 sq ft event center on the east side of Columbus (5200 Riding Club Lane) with a full commercial kitchen, in-house catering packages, online booking with an instant estimate, and a team that answers the phone. Holiday parties, repasts, birthdays, reunions, showers, corporate events: up to 200 guests. See the venue.
Partner terms (plain English)
- You earn when an event you referred is held and paid in full; cancelled, refunded or charged-back events do not pay, and a payout already sent on one is returned.
- One referrer per booking: whoever's code or link the customer used (code typed on the form wins over a link). Discounts and referral credits do not stack with other offers.
- No referring yourself, your own household, or a customer already in our system; no spam, no robo-texting, no buying ads on our name. If you post about us online, say you are a partner (an FTC rule).
- Staff and event marketers are paid on a separate percentage plan. Past-customer referrals pay on the friend's first booking only.
- Payouts are reported as required by law; we collect a W-9 before your payouts reach $2,000 in a calendar year. You are an independent referral partner, not an employee or agent, and may not make promises on our behalf.
- We can change or end the program with notice; anything earned before that is still paid.
