Introduction

The Referrals settings page configures your refer-a-friend programme: whether it is Active, the fixed-amount rewards for friends and referrers, reward expiry, and optional monthly caps. Referrals share the same plan feature as Loyalty but are a separate programme - you can run referrals with loyalty paused. For how earning works (checked-out first paid appointment) and where clients find their link, see Referrals.

Accessing Referral settings

  1. Go to Settings in the sidebar
  2. Click Referrals
You can also open these settings from the Referrals card on the Programmes page. Access: needs the Manage settings permission, and a plan that includes loyalty/referrals.

Programme status

The Programme row switches between Paused and Active.
  • Rewards can be configured while paused
  • Clients only see their share link once the programme is Active

Rewards

  • Friend reward - welcome discount the referred friend can use on their first appointment
  • Referrer reward - discount the existing client earns once that friend’s first paid appointment is checked out (non-zero value)
  • Both are fixed currency amounts only - there is no percentage option
  • Reward expiry - how many months an issued reward stays usable
  • Monthly cap (optional) - limits how many earned referrer rewards one client can receive per month
