Partner Dashboard & Tracking

Transparent tracking & partner commissions

Sands of Time provides funeral home partners with a private dashboard that makes it easy to track referrals, generate custom partner links, and monitor commissions in real time.

Built for simplicity and transparency

Every funeral home partner receives a unique referral system that automatically tracks customer activity originating from your website links and QR code displays.

  • Generate custom referral URLs directly inside your partner dashboard.
  • Create direct referral links to specific products or memorial collections on the Sands of Time website.
  • Receive automatic email notifications when a referred customer places an order.
  • Order notifications include transparent purchase totals tied to your referral attribution.
QR code attribution

Each funeral home receives a custom QR code connected to their unique referral link. When a family scans the QR code, they are directed to our Welcome Families experience page while referral attribution is automatically applied for that funeral home.

Flexible referral sharing

Funeral homes can generate custom referral links for individual memorials, collections, or specific products families may be interested in exploring.

Simple partner payouts

Partner commissions are paid through Venmo, PayPal, or check using the payment information provided during partner registration.

20% Commission

Partner commission on completed family orders

Funeral home partners receive referral commission on completed orders placed through their referral link, QR code, or custom partner-generated URL.

  • Referral tracking uses a 365-day attribution window for new referred families.
  • Once a customer is attributed to your funeral home, future orders from that customer remain connected to your partnership.
  • Partner commissions are paid through Venmo or PayPal.
