Referrals and Google reviews
Customers bring customers, regulars review
Your customers' cards carry a referral link they can pass on, even to a group chat. And once someone has been in three times, we ask them — once — to write about you on Google.
- No app for your customers
- No card required

How it works
How referrals work
-
The customer shares their link
One button on their card passes it on through the phone's share menu, or they copy it.
-
Their friend joins
The link leads to your join page and remembers who referred them.
-
The bonus comes with the first purchase
When the new customer buys for the first time, the referrer gets the credit you set. Once, and only after a real purchase.
Details
Google reviews, by the rules
-
We ask once
After the third visit the request appears on the customer's card. Once, whether they say yes or no.
-
No filtering
We don't ask first whether they were happy: Google forbids sending only satisfied customers to leave a review.
-
Straight to the review
You only enter your shop's Google Place ID; the button opens the review window of your own listing.
-
No gaming it
Nobody can refer themselves, and a referral from another shop's customer doesn't count.
-
Can be switched off
Set the referral bonus to zero and referrals disappear from the card entirely.
Let your regulars bring you the next ones
Two minutes to sign up, no card required.
When does the referrer get the bonus?
When the invited friend first buys from you, not when they join. So the bonus is paid for a real new customer.
How big should the bonus be?
You decide, in your programme's own unit: a stamp in a café, a few points in a flower shop. At zero there is no referral programme.
Is asking for Google reviews like this allowed?
Yes. We ask everyone the same way, with no satisfaction question first; what Google forbids is sending only happy customers to review.
What do I need for the review request?
Your shop's Google Place ID in the settings. Without it the request doesn't appear.
Does the new customer get anything?
Not for the referral, but if you run a welcome campaign they get it, like every new customer.
