### "Effective tool for referral marketing? Viral Loops is worth testing."

September 22, 2021

4.0

I like Viral Loops because of the simplicity and overall features that I would expect in a referral marketing tool. You can run pretty cool types of campaigns that you can encorporate in any business. If you want to use word of mouth marketing, this is a good tool to get started.

Pros

I would say simplicity. You can get a campaign up and running fast, the user interface is smooth and fast, and you don't need to mess around with settings to get to the point where you're able to launch your campaign. I don't like to spend hours figuring out a tool. Viral Loops is one of the first platforms for viral lead generation that I actually loved using. There are also templates provided that save you a big amount of time. You don't need to create anything from scratch.

Cons

It has a good amount of integrations, enough for what I need at the moment, but compared to other tools I've tried, I think there's still some catching up to do. A plus for Viral Loops is that the development team is active and regularly pushes new updates and integrations, which is very important for a cloud-based tool. Technology advances so fast and developers need to stay on top of this.

### "Viral Loops Helps us Scale"

June 18, 2024

5.0

I've been very happy with Viral Loops and would recommend this product to anyone in a small startup or established brand.

Pros

The team is incredibly responsive and the product works perfectly. We used Viral Loops to grow our waitlist and referral programs successfully.

Cons

Customer support is great but given the time zone differences sometimes it takes a while to resolve an issue. The team is great regardless.

It’s impressive to see how effectively you’ve used the platform to grow both your waitlist and referral programs — that kind of momentum is exactly what we aim to support. The note about time zone delays is completely fair; even with a responsive team, those gaps can slow things down, and your perspective helps us keep improving. I’m glad the overall experience has been strong enough that you’d recommend Viral Loops across different company stages. If you ever need help refining your setup further, I’m here for you.

### "Good For Hands on People"

May 22, 2024

5.0

Simple but robust. Logical and great for people who prefer to be hands on for making it/have a plan already. A little repetitive but a great price. Plus the ability to actually test things out before paying is a huge plus.

Pros

It didn't try to force a sale and let us give it a legitimate trial before using. Did great on organizing the process and providing the core information and tools I needed to get setup.

Cons

More clarity on the type of campagne I was making would be nice, as I spent a lot of time on the wrong type to start

### "Great sales support tool"

August 5, 2024

5.0

Very happy overall, would recommend to all ecom shops

Pros

Easy to use and it's a great tool to support with sales and engage the community.

Cons

It's a bit costly and only makes sense to use once you have a certain community.

### "Easy setup, solid features and stellar support"

June 11, 2024

5.0

Ran campaigns on them for clients and for myself and have always enjoyed the experience and the results they help bring. Allows me to focus on the messaging and crafting a good campaign instead of coding.

Pros

The ease to set it up and integrate on any website, as well as with usual MarTech stack like Klaviyo and Mailchimp.

Cons

It's a bit on the costly side to start. Also, the double opt-in feature could be available on the startup plan since it's pretty standard practice for this kind of campaigns.

### "Start-Up referral marketing "

April 24, 2024

4.0

It's a great, simple platform to set up and start using, but a couple of things can be done to improve experience for the entry-level plans.

Pros

I've been using Viral Loops to build a waitlist for my start-up, and have found it the best platform from the perspective of its interface UI, and its shareable features. It's the most modern, sleek looking referral platform with options to integrate into your existing site design. The shareability features (link, emails, WhatsApp etc) is also the most user-friendly, easy to use and uptake.

Cons

The price is quite high (I'm in AUS so the conversion from USD to AUD isn't ideal) and they've recently changed their base plan which has removed some of the core features I was using.

### "Campaign creation"

July 4, 2024

4.0

Overall positive yet to be honest found it a little tricky to set up at first and nearly gave up a few times, your customer support kept me in!

Pros

The ability to help me collect data for a giveaway and the customer support

Cons

I found it quite hard to learn the format to set up a campaing and required a lot of hand holding and questions from customer support, i googled a lot of questions and feel there could be more guide lines on each step

### "Easy set and great tool for demand generation"

April 22, 2024

4.0

Good - great support and very easy to set up a campaign.

Pros

Super easy campaign set up and tracking. Great integration tools, including what I needed with Squarespace and Google Analytics. Good integration with Slack for notifications.

Cons

It's not cheap. Free up to 1,000 participants and then from $229 per month.

Response from Viral Loops

December 10, 2025

Great to hear the platform helped you grow your waitlist and referral program so effectively. I understand the occasional delays due to time zones, and we’re always working to minimize that. Also, just a quick note — the 1,000-participant plan is $139, not $229. If you’d like help reviewing options or optimizing your setup, I’m here anytime.

### "Its a good software"

February 23, 2024

4.0

I've recently begun using Viral Loops and I'm finding the experience enjoyable. However, I still need to complete a few more steps before my campaign can go live; setting it up has taken me about 2-3 weeks. Despite some areas needing improvement, I'm confident that Viral Loops is developing a very valuable software.

Pros

The customer service is reliable, the interface is user-friendly and easy to set up, plus they offer a free trial to try it out.

Cons

Customer service primarily provides articles, requiring you to do the research yourself, though they do respond quickly. The service is pricey, and it doesn't allow for custom branding in emails. Additionally, there's limited flexibility in making page adjustments.

### "Great Product, Even Better Support"

June 13, 2024

5.0

Amazing! The entire Viral Loops team was great to work with. They really helped us throughout the entire way to ensure we were setup for success.

Pros

The product is great, very easy to use and easy to navigate. What's even better is the ability to customize and also the Viral Loops support team. We had a pretty custom design and the Viral Loops team supported us all the way through. Highly recommend!

Cons

Timezones can be a bit tricky to navigate for effective communication (we are on the west coast).

### "Want more customers? Definitely give this tool a try to loop them in, virally!"

November 30, 2018

5.0

Pros

Customer support. Have to mention this first, because it's out of this world. I've never experience that level of support - I want to do a solution which wasn't a standard option in the tool, their support led me all the way, tried different ways to solve it until we finally found a solution. Truly amazing! Love the simplicity and easy of use and setup - it's basically plug and play.

Cons

I haven't tried a lot of different setups for the viral campaigns but felt some features are missing. But, they're grown a lot in the past few years so what's missing will be included soon.

### "Amazing idea but need to improve"

February 1, 2019

3.0

I love the idea but was too much time consuming make something simple

Pros

I use several apps for make "viral" refers or contest like upviral or gleam, i really like viral loop idea and the templates are great but have so many bugs its hard to implement. I love they give you alot of templates for diferent campaign ready made, so you can start to make a viral campaign, refer a friend, or content but... Most of the design, templates and ideas are cool

Cons

The issue with viral loop is hard to implement, is ready made but have so many stop point and little bugs that is hard to work. I made 2 campaign, was very painfull to launch take so much time on little details, when with other apps was more easy and faster. (1 day vs 2 weeks) Like i say, Most of the design, templates and ideas are cool but is hard to implement or use Example, deliver a price like a pdf was a pain. They need to add more freedom, customization and options

Pros

Personally, the strong point of the service is the assistance. Thanos always responded to me promptly and followed up on all the points I needed, resolving them. Very professional

Cons

There is room for improvement and some bugs. But for a tool that offers such a service I think it's normal. The way I have been followed, they will certainly be resolved

### "Infect Your Customers With This Virus"

November 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

Viral marketing is the term that most people have heard but never actually implement. It's because creating and launch a viral campaign is so much easier said than done. Viral Loops changes that by providing users with easy to use and ready to implement viral campaigns adapted from successful campaigns.

Cons

While the process is not complicated, you have to be ready with "incentives" before you start. Going trhough the setup process is also a bit tedious task, especially for beginners.

November 22, 2019

My experience with the software and their staff has been great. I also enjoyed the Growth Hacking academy that they provided when I became a customer.

Pros

What I like the most about this software is that it allows me to create referral campaings that are effective for both online and offline businesses.

Cons

Until recently the one thing that I didn't like was the branding at the bottom of the widgets but they toned it down an also offer eliminating it all together on one of their tier plans.
