ReferralCandy now connects with Tremendous, so Shopify merchants can send cash rewards through a flexible, branded reward-claim experience. The integration is built for referral and affiliate campaigns where payout speed, recipient choice, and operational simplicity matter.
With Tremendous connected, merchants can select Tremendous as the cash payout method inside ReferralCandy campaigns. That applies to both referral campaigns and affiliate campaigns on Shopify.
This keeps reward delivery consistent as volume grows. It removes the manual work that tends to show up when a program moves from “testing” into “always-on.”
Tremendous uses campaign templates to control what recipients see. Templates cover the reward options offered, the email content, and the claim page experience. Merchants can customize colors, add a logo, and include a message that matches their brand voice.
That makes the payout feel like part of the program, not a separate payment workflow.
Some recipients prefer gift cards. Others want something more flexible. Tremendous templates let merchants define the menu of reward options recipients can choose from. Merchants set this once, then the same reward experience applies across payouts.
With Tremendous, your customers and affiliates can choose from 2,500+ reward options across 230+ countries, including Virtual Visa, PayPal, Venmo, bank transfers, and popular gift cards like Amazon, Walmart, and Starbucks.
For marketing teams, this changes the tradeoff. Reward flexibility usually adds process. Here, it stays packaged inside the payout experience.
Tremendous can deliver rewards via email. Recipients get a message with a claim flow attached to it. That keeps the experience lightweight for the recipient and predictable for the merchant team running the program.
As referral and affiliate programs mature, reward ops becomes one of the first bottlenecks. The Tremendous integration centralizes payout delivery into a single path that can handle higher volume without changing the program structure every time you grow.
Reward timing and clarity shape how people talk about a program. The Tremendous claim flow is designed around the recipient experience, with templates controlling the message, the landing page, and the reward selection in one place.
Cash rewards tend to be used in specific moments: limited-time pushes, seasonal launches, influencer bursts, or “reactivation” campaigns aimed at past buyers. With Tremendous handling payout delivery, cash rewards become easier to use as a campaign lever instead of a special case.
Referral and affiliate tools often look similar at first glance. The differences show up in day-to-day execution: how quickly you can launch, how much manual effort sits behind reward delivery, and how the reward experience feels to the people earning it.
This integration is built around a simple expectation: a performance channel works best when the payout system does not become the work. Tremendous is designed for sending payouts and digital rewards at scale, and ReferralCandy is built around running referral and affiliate programs inside Shopify.
ReferralCandy also supports selecting a Tremendous funding approach (for example, using account balance versus invoice-based funding) so teams can align payout behavior with internal finance preferences.
The Tremendous integration is currently available for Shopify merchants using ReferralCandy.
For teams already running ReferralCandy, Tremendous adds a new payout path that fits high-volume referral and affiliate programs. For teams evaluating platforms, it is a concrete signal about how we think these programs should run: marketing-first, operationally clean, and built to scale.
If you want to see what the payout experience looks like for recipients, Tremendous provides examples of email reward delivery and how the claim flow appears on the recipient side.
