# Referral Rock > Referral program software that helps businesses launch and automate referral, brand ambassador, and affiliate/partner programs — built to run in the background with hands-on onboarding on every plan. Referral Rock serves SMB, service, B2B, SaaS, e-commerce, and franchise businesses. Differentiators: a dedicated advisor (concierge onboarding) on every plan, native CRM integrations (HubSpot, Salesforce), rewards that fire at any funnel stage — not just at checkout — automated payouts with no commission taken, and 50+ integrations. Founded 2014; headquartered in the Washington, D.C. metro area; 1,000+ customers.
