Rewards that motivate, payouts that mostly run themselves
Pick the incentive structure that fits your business, automate the payouts, and keep the day-to-day reward work from piling up.
Join 1,000+ companies growing referrals with Referral Rock
Best for e-commerce brands paying two-sided rewards at checkout, and home services teams that want flexible payouts with no commission taken.
Reward design
Build the offer that gets people sharing
The reward decides whether you get repeat sharers or a handful of one-time clicks. Referral Rock gives you structures that match how the business actually works, instead of forcing customers into a generic refer-a-friend, get ten dollars.
- Two-sided rewards let the referrer and the friend both earn. A friend who sees something in it for them is far more likely to act on the share.
- Tiered and milestone rewards raise the payoff as someone refers more, giving the most active sharers a reason to keep going instead of stopping after one.
- Bump rewards put the largest incentive on the first referral. New members get off the fence early, while the program is still front of mind.
- Recurring commissions repeat on every renewal, so subscription and SaaS programs reward partners in a way that tracks the revenue they actually bring in over time.
Payouts
Pay each member the way they prefer
A reward only motivates if people actually want to receive it, and that answer is different for a B2B partner than for a consumer who just bought a pair of shoes.
The reward type that fits your business
Gift cards, cash, store credit, coupons, or a fully custom reward, paid through Tango, PayPal, or Wise. A B2B partner can take cash where a retail shopper would rather have store credit, and an overseas member gets paid in a currency that works where they live.
No markup on payouts
You pay the provider's own rates and nothing on top. The plan price never takes a cut of the rewards or the referred revenue. The cost of a reward is exactly the reward.
Members pick what they want
Where you enable it, each person chooses gift card versus cash versus credit. Redemption climbs when people follow through on rewards they actually wanted.
Recurring commission payouts
Payouts fire on each subscription renewal automatically. An affiliate or partner program keeps paying the right amount without you re-issuing anything by hand.
Less reward work every week
Design the incentive and let the platform carry the payouts.
Automated, with an approval step
Rewards trigger and go out on the rules you set. Only the exceptions wait for you to approve them.
The right reward, every time
Two-sided, tiered, bump, and recurring structures fit the offer to the business model.
No markup, ever
You pay the provider rate and nothing more on top.
Members choose how they get paid
Gift card, cash, or credit, chosen by the member where you allow it. Redemption goes up.
Day-to-day rewards
Keep the reward queue from piling up
Most programs end up with a queue of payouts and a spreadsheet to reconcile every Friday. Referral Rock runs the routine on its own and pulls you in only when a payout truly needs a person. You approve what matters and skip the rest.
- Sort, filter, and update rewards from a browser or your phone. A reward that needs approving while you are away from the desk takes one tap instead of waiting until Monday.
- A manual review queue holds flagged or pending rewards in one place. The few that need a second look stay separated from the many that do not.
- Reward eligibility buffers hold a payout for a set window to cover returns or cancellations, so you never issue a reward on a sale that does not stick.
- Issue a one-off or manual reward whenever you need to. A special case or a make-good never turns into a workaround.
Set the reward rules once and let payouts follow them
Design the incentive, set your rules, and Referral Rock handles the payouts on those rules, flagging only the ones that need your call.
