Referral Program – Overview
The Referral Program allows your business by letting you reward your customers every time they refer a friend to your business.
How it Works
We give each of your customers a unique code and a URL that they can share with their friends. You may set this URL to any web page that has your booking form installed on it (i.e your website’s booking page).
When the friend goes to the URL to make a booking, the unique code is entered into the Discount Code field automatically.
The friend receives a discount on their booking, and the customer receives a reward.
The friend discount and customer reward can be any amount you wish.
How can my customer redeem their rewards?
Your customer can use the rewards they’ve earned by entering their unique code into the Discount Code field on their next booking. These rewards can be combined with any Frequency discount on their booking.
