Wix Referral Program: Adding and Setting Up Your Referral Program

9分で読める
Add Wix Referral Program to your site to allow your members to refer friends to your business by sharing referral URLs. You have the option to reward both the customer doing the referring and the friend being referred.
To launch your referral program, you need to set it up, add the relevant pages and publish your site. Once launched, the program runs automatically with no need for you to manage any aspect manually, unless you'd like to make changes to the way it works.

To add a referral program, you must have:
  • One of the following plans:
    • Wix Editor: A Business or higher plan
    • Wix Studio: A Plus or higher plan
  • At least one of these apps: Wix Stores, Wix Bookings, Wix Events, Wix Pricing Plans or the new Wix Restaurants ordering app.

Step 1 | Create your referral program

Give your referral program a name, and confirm the action a referred friend needs to take to trigger a reward for the referring customer.

To create your referral program:

Dashboard
Wixアプリ
  1. Go to Referral Program in your site's dashboard.
  2. Click Set Up Program.
  3. Provide basic info about your program in the Program details セクションを参照されたい:
    • Program name: Enter your referral program name.
      Note: Your program name is for internal use only and does not appear on your site.
    • Reward trigger: Click the drop-down and choose the action that will trigger a reward for the referring customer:
      • Store order placed: When the referred friend places a store order, the referring customer will be rewarded. 
      • Ticket ordered: When the referred friend purchases an event ticket, the referring customer will be rewarded.
      • Session booked: When the referred friend books a session, the referring customer will be rewarded.
      • Plan ordered: When the referred friend orders a pricing plan, the referring customer will be rewarded.

注:
You might see your reward trigger is pre-selected and can't be changed. This happens if your site has only 1 app that the referral program can be based on (Wix Stores, Wix Bookings, Wix Events, Wix Pricing Plans, or the new Wix Restaurants online ordering app).

Step 2 | Set your program rewards

Choose if and how you’d like to reward those participating in your program.

A referring customer is rewarded when a referred friend signs up as a site member and takes the action on your site that is set as your reward trigger (e.g. places an order, books a session). A referred friend is rewarded when they click the referral URL they receive and sign in or sign up to your site.

Go to your editor to see and customize the Referral Program pages. If you've set up your program from your site's dashboard, you can click Go to Editor at the top of the screen.
