Turn Every Repair Job Into Monthly Recurring Income

Here’s how technicians turn a one-time repair into predictable monthly income — using a service every customer already needs.

The Simple Idea (And Why It Works)

Most PC & IT technicians already give advice like: “You should be backing up your important files.” The difference here is that you can recommend a backup service you trust — and get paid recurring commissions when customers renew.

  • Not “selling” — it’s a normal part of good support and aftercare.
  • Fits your workflow — one question at the end of a job, then send a link.
  • Recurring upside — the customer gets protected, you get paid again every time they renew, for the lifetime of each customer
How you activate it: register as a reseller ($20, instant approval), buy the backup yourself so you can recommend it with integrity, then share your personalised link: GBDrive.com/USERID.

Your USERID is your chosen GotBackUp username — it’s what tracks customers back to you automatically.

What Your Customer Is Buying

You’re offering a professional, fully-managed cloud backup service. Once it’s set up, it runs quietly in the background — protecting files automatically.

Flexible

Monthly Backup

$9.97/month (c.£7.20/month)
  • Backup for unlimited devices
  • Up to 6 sub-accounts (family members)
  • Up to 6TB total storage
  • Windows, Mac, Android & iPhone
  • Runs silently in the background
  • 24/7/365 customer support

Ideal for customers who want a low monthly cost or prefer flexibility.

Best Value

Annual Backup

$99.97/year (c.£72/year)
(2 months free)
  • Everything in the monthly plan
  • Lower cost overall
  • Easier for customers to say yes

Most technicians recommend this option because it's better value.

No risk for the customer: both plans include a 30-day money-back guarantee. If they change their mind, they can cancel — no arguments.

From the customer’s point of view: one account, all their devices, family included, fully supported.

How You Get Paid (In Plain English)

When a customer signs up through your personal link, the system credits them to you. When they renew, the renewal is credited back to your account too — and you get paid again.

No quotas. No targets. No awkward pushing. Just professional advice — with a recurring upside.

How to Introduce It (Simple Script)

The easiest question to ask customers is:

“By the way… how do you back up your data?”

If they say “I don’t” — perfect. If they say “external drive”, you can gently remind them drives get dropped, lost, stolen, or fail — and cloud backup covers phones, laptops and PCs.

Your tracked links (auto-filled)

Main sales page (recommended)

The username shown above is the one currently stored for you (via your referral link / cookie). When you become a reseller, you’ll use your own GotBackUp username in those URLs.

Extra Upside: Referring Other Repair Shops

If you know other PC repair shops, freelance IT technicians, or MSPs, you can introduce them too. When they make sales, you can earn additional commissions from their activity — without supporting their customers.
