### "Good"

February 26, 2019

4.0

Pros

Easy concept, free emails for invites, reporting system good

Cons

Cannot share with email and instagram button using templates to make it easier for the advocates, Only facebook now that our advocates have been using. Advocates have to manually copy link to email or instagram if they want to share with their friends. ALso there is no login page for existing advocates if they ever wanted log back into their account, they share the same landing page with new advocates

### "Misleading employees"

April 22, 2020

5.0

Happy with the app, unhappy with the support

Pros

Amazing product with misleading staff. You guys can do better without outsourcing your staff to people who will just ruin your name for a review.

Cons

\[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] gave us a demo and helped up. He said that there was a fee of around $88 to access design and customization, that he wil be waiving this for us if we furnish him a review on their Shopify page. And so we did. Found out today those prices were not true.

### "That candy is sweet!"

March 19, 2021

4.0

Great onboarding, very helpful getting us setup, very patient with all our questions and concerns

Pros

Very cost effective, easy to setup, love that we are able to customize all of the landing pages and emails sent to customers. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] from customer support was very helpful in solving a post-setup issue we had.

Cons

It would be ideal if the customer doing the referring could email the referrals to their friends using the software.

Reason for choosing ReferralCandy

Price, ease of use, features

### "Refund for unused services, thanks to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]"

February 13, 2021

2.0

Refund for unused services Excellent Wordpress plugin for the management of Referral Marketing It is complete, easy to use and original After selecting and installing the plugin in the new PATHS platform I made the mistake of not having seen that the Plugin was not free, but had a trial period. The platform is still in the launch phase and if I had figured it out earlier I wouldn't have installed it from the start. So after 3 months of inactivity I found myself paying the monthly fee without using any online service. Thanks to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] cooperation and understanding of personal support I received my refund. The law provides for it, but in such a short time the merit was only to have met \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]. Being a connoisseur and a pioneer of Web Marketing, I would still recommend referralcandy to activate a free version. This would allow us to offer more time to evaluate the functionality of the plugin!

Pros

Excellent Wordpress plugin for the management of Referral Marketing

Cons

It is complete, easy to use and original

### "Thanks, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]!"

September 15, 2020

5.0

It's been a good experience so far! Thanks to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] our account manager for his support for us. Here's hoping for more growth in 2021!

Pros

I love that we can easily run our affiliate program without someone having to verify every single little detail. We're a small team so having a software that helps manage it for us is a huge plus.

Cons

We ran into an issue where a bot spammed our sign up link. Luckily the team was able to get in under control in about a week.

### "Integrating Referral candy via API"

August 24, 2022

5.0

Katherine and the engineering team were helpful in guiding me through the API integration process.

Pros

It's makes referrals easy for us and automates the process

Cons

The API documentations is a bit loose. Several documents talking about the same documentation, and the documents might differ a bit in instructions. This made the integration a bit more complex.

### "Good for Ecommerce"

July 29, 2020

5.0

Pros

Easy to implement and manage. The customer account portal allows users to manage their referrals and see their rewards, which is nice. RC's customer service is always responsive and honest.

Cons

I wish they'd add automation for flagging when it looks like a customer is "referring" themself.

### "So far so good"

September 3, 2020

5.0

Happy so far! \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] took a lot of time to patiently explain how o can use it with my current customer base.

Pros

I wasn’t even fully set up and looks like a customer already made a Referral purchase! I’m excited to see the way more customers can easily send referral links and track the purchases.

Cons

Little tricky set up with my squarespace site. But I don’t think it could have been much easier. The Referral Candy team helped finish it up for me.

### "Customer Support"

January 27, 2021

5.0

Pros

The plugin integrated seamlessly with our woocommerce store, following a few initial setup steps and queries that we were expertly guided through by \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] on customer support. We haven't communicated our referral scheme fully yet but are hoping it will be a success once our campaign is fully launched.

Cons

We do not have enough to go by yet really, although so far everything works easily and without little input.

### "Be Careful Of Reviews"

March 14, 2023

1.0

Poor and expensive

Pros

Nothing. It isn't working yet for us, so I have no results at all

Cons

Few examples how other brands have used it... How often to use it, where it is placed on out site, examples of the process etcThe software didn’t work for our trial period. Without asking, they billed a year in advance, even before it worked. We are now 6 weeks in and have not used it once and have so far paid over $500!!Customer service is also poor! With no response to messaging, thus the review. I told them if they didn't get back to me I will write the review and hey ho... they didn't respond.We are still trying to get the money back and still trying to make it work, to then decide if it is good or not ! You have been warned! Andy Rigg Owner Rigged and Ready

### "Help from Customer Support, the rep"

September 26, 2019

4.0

I just had a great experience thanks to the support of the rep. I needed to fix one CTA button that was missing and at first the rep thought that I would have to have my developer fix it. A few minutes later she messaged me back and told me she found the solution. I very much appreciated her support and attention to my problem!

Pros

Referral Candy gets the job done by providing links to our clients.

Cons

Sometimes it is hard to edit the content if you don't know how to code.
