How ReferralCandy works:

• A customer buys something from your store
• We send them a coupon code to share with friends
• When their friends buy from you, the customer receives a referral reward

Everybody wins: your original customer gets rewarded, their friends get a discount, you make more sales and get a new customer! We do all the referral tracking, so you don’t have to do anything.
