Learn about your unique referral link and how you can customize your link on the advocate join page.
What is a unique referral link?
A referral link is a link that all advocates get when they are enrolled in a campaign. By default, the referral link is personalized based on either your first and last name, or the first part of your email address.
For example, if the name and email address you used were John Smith and spacemarine1337@gmail.com, your default unique referral link will likely be: http://yourstore.refr.cc/campaign/u/johnsmith.
Why customize your referral link?
There are many reasons why you'd want to customize your unique referral link:
You don’t want to expose your first and/or last name when sharing your unique referral link publicly.
You purchased under a different name and would like to correct it.
Customizing your referral link
To customize your unique referral link, log into the advocate join page. To get the join page URL of the campaign you are enrolled in, take the first part of your unique referral link (e.g., http://yourstore.refr.cc/campaign/u/johnsmith) then add .referralcandy.com. For example: http://yourstore.referralcandy.com/.
