Our no-code referral software makes it easy to launch a program tailored to your business and industry, with more ways to ask for referrals at the right time and promote your program across every channel. With Referral Factory, you can launch a high-converting referral program in minutes using branded landing pages, built-in email notifications, advanced tracking, and automated rewards. You can fully white-label the experience so customers see your brand, not a third-party tool. Create referral links in one click, or let customers sign up for their own links.

For offline businesses, customers can submit leads through forms or share QR codes with friends and family. Referral Factory helps you track referrals end to end, so you always know who referred who, what converted into paying customers, and who should be rewarded. You also get real-time analytics to measure performance and ROI, plus a fully branded referral portal where customers can view their links, referrals, and rewards.

One platform for affiliate, influencer, and referral programs. Plug in your billing, define how commissions work, and be live before the day ends. We connect directly to Stripe, Paddle, Chargebee, Recurly, and Braintree, so every billing event reaches your program as it happens. Each upgrade, downgrade, renewal, refund, and cancellation recalculates the commission behind it. Payouts never drift from revenue. For paying promoters, choose fully managed payouts or bulk transfers through PayPal and Wise. We collect W-9/W-8BEN forms before funds move and attach an invoice to every payout, so the paperwork side of the program largely runs itself. Promoters track links, coupon codes, and earnings from a dashboard under your brand. Behind it, you hold 18-point reporting, commission structures from flat fee to multi-tier, fraud detection, and broadcast email across your promoter base. Try it free for 14 days.
