Post-Review Referrals Widget
A new version of the Post-Review Referrals Widget was released in September 2024.
Merchants who used the widget prior to the release of the update will see several changes applied to their Referral offer. See the relevant section to learn more about these changes.
Turn your reviewers into advocates by providing them with a unique discount link they can share with their friends and family using our Post-review Referrals Offer.
These discount links can drive more sales and grow your brand by using social proof and word-of-mouth to spread awareness and trust.
Every reviewer that left a 4 or 5-star review will receive a unique referral link on the thank you page displayed on your review Form, encouraging them to share their unique discount link with others, earning rewards in the process.
