There are many ways to integrate ReferralCandy into your website and the type of integration you choose depends on your eCommerce platform and the level of customization you want.
 
Important: You should only use 1 integration type and you should not mix and match the integration steps.

Note: Email Integration does not require technical expertise, while Javascript Integration and API Integration do.


Integration Types

Email Integration (Most easily implemented in the short term)

If your eCommerce platform is listed on our Setup page, there will be more specific instructions but for most platforms the 2 basic steps are:

  • Insert a referral tracking code on the purchase completed page that your customer sees once they have completed a purchase on your site. View a sample of the code


Javascript Integration 

Insert a purchase and referral tracking code that will require additional customer variables to be exposed on the purchase completed page of your checkout process

  • The availability of these customer variables on your checkout varies from platform to platform

  • There's also an option to enable the post-purchase popup as part of this integration


API Integration

  • Use the Purchase method of our API to send us the transaction information once the purchase is completed

  • Insert a referral tracking code on the purchase completed page that your customer sees once they have completed a purchase on your site. View a sample of the code
