What is FlexiTiers?

Scaling a referral program isn’t just about offering rewards—it’s about keeping advocates engaged and motivated to refer more customers over time. That’s where FlexiTiers comes in.

FlexiTiers allows you to set up progressive reward levels in your referral and affiliate programs. Instead of offering the same incentive for every referral, you can reward advocates more as they bring in more referrals. This approach encourages long-term participation, higher-quality referrals, and stronger customer loyalty—all while keeping your costs aligned with business growth.

‍

Why FlexiTiers? The Value for Your Business

Many referral programs struggle with one-time engagement. Customers refer once, claim their reward, and stop. With FlexiTiers, you can create a structured incentive system that keeps advocates engaged beyond the first referral. Here’s why it matters:

• Turn One-Time Referrers into Loyal Advocates – Customers stay motivated when they see that referring more unlocks better rewards.
• Get More Repeat Purchases from Your Best Customers – Reward tiers encourage advocates to redeem their incentives, increasing customer lifetime value.
• Grow Faster Without Increasing Acquisition Costs – Unlike paid ads, rewards only trigger when referrals result in actual sales, keeping acquisition spend efficient.

FlexiTiers helps you drive sustained growth without extra complexity—giving your business a powerful tool to scale referral-driven revenue.
