A referral link is a link that is given out to each Advocate when they meet your segment criteria and become enrolled in your campaign.
ReferralCandy generates unique and campaign-specific referral links for each Advocate, which they can share with friends through their share page. With unique links, the system detects when your Advocates share the links through email or social networking sites.
A unique referral link looks like this: https://yourstore.refr.cc/campaign/u/alice.
The first part of the referral link (i.e.,
http://yourstore.refr.cc/) is derived from your account's Store URL. The subdomain (i.e.,yourstore) can be edited.The second part of the link (i.e., campaign) is your campaign URL.
The last part of the link (i.e., u/johnsmith) is your Advocate's username. The Advocate can update this from their rewards page at any time.
Customizing the subdomain of the referral link
Go to your Store details page:
From the ReferralCandy dashboard, go to My Store > Store Details.
From your Shopify admin, go to Accounts > Store details > Domains.
In the Referral program unique subdomain field, enter your subdomain.
Save the changes.
Important: Changing your subdomain mid-campaign renders all previously set referral links invalid. We highly encourage that you modify this setting once, upon setting up your ReferralCandy account.
