Referral Campaign Journey
Active ProgramBuilt for structured referral programs
Use physical referral bills to explain the offer, identify the campaign, and give staff a recognizable redemption tool.
Choose Your Referral Model
Decide who receives value and when the reward is earned
Referral programs usually follow one of two structures. Choose the model that best matches your margins, sales cycle, and ability to confirm a qualified referral.
Reward the person making the referral
The advocate receives the benefit after the referred customer completes the required action. This is often used for customer, employee, partner, or professional referral programs.
Give both people a reason to participate
The referrer earns a reward while the new customer receives a separate welcome offer. This can make the referral easier to share because both sides understand the benefit.
Two-Sided Incentive Planner
Build an offer that makes sense for both participants
The two rewards do not need to match. Base each benefit on the action, margin, customer value, and timing of your referral program.
The referral reward
Release this benefit only after the new customer completes the qualifying action defined by your business.
The welcome offer
Give the prospective customer a clear first reason to book, register, purchase, visit, or contact your business.
Qualification Rules
Define exactly when a referral becomes payable
Avoid disputes by deciding the qualification trigger, timing, exclusions, and redemption process before the bills are distributed.
Identify an eligible referral
State whether the referred person must be a new customer, new account, first-time buyer, or otherwise meet a specific eligibility requirement.
Set the qualifying action
Define whether qualification requires a completed purchase, paid invoice, attended appointment, signed agreement, registration, or other measurable action.
Choose the reward timing
Decide whether the benefit is issued immediately, after a waiting period, after payment clears, or after any cancellation or return period has passed.
Print the important limitations
Include expiration dates, participating locations, minimum purchase amounts, exclusions, and whether the offer can be combined with another promotion.
Tracking & Validation
Give each campaign a recognizable identity
Print A Bill™ can include visible and optional hidden details that support your referral tracking and staff redemption process.
QR destinations
Link to a referral form, booking page, registration, campaign landing page, or account portal.
Serial numbers
Use sequential or unique numbering for campaign organization, manual tracking, or redemption records.
Source identifiers
Print employee, partner, location, campaign, or promotion codes directly on the referral bill.
Optional UV marks
Add hidden details visible under ultraviolet light for staff inspection during redemption.
Referral Program Examples
Adapt the reward to the value and timing of the sale
The best referral offer depends on how quickly a new customer converts, how much the transaction is worth, and how reliably your team can confirm the source.
Referral after completed service
The new customer receives an introductory discount. The referrer receives a future service credit once the appointment is completed and paid.
Best for salons, cleaners, contractors, and repair servicesReward after a qualified engagement
Use the referral bill to identify the source, route the prospect to a consultation, and release the reward after a signed or paid engagement.
Best for agencies, consultants, accountants, and brokersDual incentive for a first purchase
Give the new customer a first-order offer and provide the existing customer with store credit after the qualifying transaction.
Best for stores, memberships, subscriptions, and product brandsSeparate codes for each participant
Assign employee IDs, serial ranges, or campaign codes so the business can identify which employee generated the lead.
Best for sales teams and approved employee incentive programsCo-branded business introductions
Create referral bills for vendors, agents, associations, and complementary businesses that regularly exchange qualified leads.
Best for recurring professional partnershipsReward growth within a customer community
Provide members with referral bills that unlock a reward after a new member joins, subscribes, or completes the required purchase.
Best for clubs, gyms, subscriptions, and private programsCampaign Launch Checklist
Prepare the program before printing the bills
