ReferralCandy review

ReferralCandy runs customer referral and affiliate programs from one app, and every plan includes every feature, so you pick a plan by how much you sell through referrals. Basic costs $39 a month plus a 10.5% success fee on referral sales, Grow $79 plus 3.5%, Scale $249 plus 1.5% and Enterprise $799 plus 0.25% with dedicated onboarding. Rewards can be coupon codes, store credit, cash or gift cards, and tiered rewards push your best advocates further. A built-in AI assistant called Referral Expert helps launch and tune campaigns from store data. App blocks drop into the theme, and the listing names Shopify POS, Klaviyo, Omnisend, Recharge, Loop and Skio among its integrations. It had 4.9 stars from 1,482 reviews. There is no free plan, only a 7-day trial, and the 10.5% fee on Basic gets expensive quickly, so most stores with steady referral sales will save money on Grow.
