Power Your Shopify Store With Referrals

Turn your customers into your best marketing channel. Referral Nexus integrates directly with Shopify to automatically track which referrers drive purchases to your store. When a referred customer places an order, Referral Nexus creates a referral record and calculates the reward based on your configuration. Reward referrers with cash commissions or automatically generate unique Shopify discount codes they can share with their network. The integration handles everything from order attribution to reward fulfillment, letting you focus on growing your store. Webhooks ensure real-time updates so referrers see their earnings immediately after a purchase. Configure percentage-based commissions, flat rate rewards, or tiered structures that incentivize your top referrers. Works with all Shopify plans that support custom apps, from Basic through Plus.
