Launch School also has a "help spread the word and we'll give you $20" kind of thing but it's offered very early in the course, and I believe the review/post/article has to be posted through a platform where you can reasonably be personally identified (e.g. linkedin)

That sounds fine if the people disclose that in some way too or if it's disclosed on the landing page that students get a $20 referral fee if you join through this article.
Two different things to debate
1. being paid to write stuff
2. disclosing you were paid to write stuff
