Low repeat rate, so referral is the LTV lever
When customers buy once and don't come back for years, new buyers are the only way to grow. A trusted recommendation is what gets a first-time, high-ticket purchase over the line.
When your product is a considered, once-in-a-few-years purchase, you can't grow on repeat orders. Your happiest customers are the channel — ReferralCandy turns their recommendation into your most efficient way to win the next buyer.

One big order, then years of quiet. Percentage rewards scare your finance team, and a leaked discount code cheapens a premium brand. Growing means more first purchases from people who already trust a buyer — without giving away your margin or your price integrity.
When customers buy once and don't come back for years, new buyers are the only way to grow. A trusted recommendation is what gets a first-time, high-ticket purchase over the line.
Twenty percent of a $400 order is a number nobody wants to sign off on. You need fixed or per-customer rewards you set, so payouts stay predictable no matter the cart size.
Codes ending up on coupon sites cheapen a considered purchase and train buyers to wait for a deal. The reward should protect your price, not undercut it.
High-consideration buys hinge on confidence. A recommendation from someone who already owns the product clears the biggest objection a first-time buyer has — and you control the reward so it never erodes your margin.
For a major purchase, a friend's recommendation carries more weight than any ad. The buyer arrives already convinced by someone who put down the money themselves.
Fixed-amount or flat per-referral rewards keep payouts predictable regardless of order value — so a referral on a high-ticket sale never costs you a slice of the whole basket.
Reward with store credit, a gift, or controlled single-use codes — incentives that motivate the advocate without leaking discounts or cheapening the brand.
Stores using ReferralCandy typically see 2–10% of monthly revenue come from referrals. For high-ticket brands, that tends to mean fewer referred orders — each one worth far more.
Our customers love the product enough to tell their friends. ReferralCandy turned that goodwill into a measurable channel that runs alongside everything else we do.
From the share prompt your buyer sees to the fraud check that protects a high-value payout — everything the customer sees and everything you need to run the program.
The post-purchase thank-you page (the highest-converting surface), the referral block inside their Shopify customer account, and an embeddable widget for your homepage, product, or cart pages. For a considered purchase, the ask can wait for the moment the buyer is proudest of what they bought.
Easily customize content and visuals without touching code.
Edit referral pages, popups, and email templates inline. Drop in your logo, your fonts, your colours — so the referral experience looks as considered as the product.
Track referral revenue, the value of referred orders, top advocates, and the funnel from share to purchase. Export to CSV, sync events to GA4 and Meta.
Auto-flag self-referrals (matching email, name, IP), velocity spikes from a single advocate, and codes leaking to scrapers like Honey or coupon sites. Set a purchase review period so refunded orders don't pay out — the stakes are higher when each order is worth more.
Set a fixed amount you control, reward in store credit or a gift, or issue single-use codes that can't leak. Every option keeps your payouts predictable and your price intact — whatever your order value.
A fixed amount you set — independent of order size.
Spent back with you, never leaked to a coupon site.
A free add-on that rewards without touching the headline price.
Unique per advocate, so it can't spread to deal forums.
Cash payouts run through PayPal, ACH bank transfer, Venmo, virtual debit cards, and 30+ other methods via
. Gift cards and charity donations also available.
