If you are setting up
referral rebates , it will be helpful to take a look at the following examples to understand how Rebate Recipients and Rebate Rules function. The examples are based on the following referral rebate scenario:
Person A registers and receives a referral link which is sent to Persons B, C, and J. Person B registers and receives their own referral link, which is used by Persons D and E when registering. This pattern continues until the above "web" is created.
Here are some examples of various rebate settings and how they would work with the above scenario.
Rebate RecipientsThe
Rebate recipients setting lets you adjust who will receive the rebate:
- Referrers only - Rebates will be given only to registrants which successfully refer other registrants. In the scenario above, Persons A, B, C, and F would receive the rebate.
- All referrers and referees - Rebates will be given to referrers as well as everyone who registers through a referral link, regardless of whether they then refer others. In the scenario above, all registrants would receive the rebate.
Rebate RulesAdding
Rebate rules can allow you to create various "tiers" of rebates to reward registrants who refer many other registrants. Let's say you set up the following two rules:
With the above rules applying to the original scenario:
- Using All referrers and referees:
- Person A has 9 referrals in total (since everyone below A in the "web" is counted). This exceeds the requirement of second rebate rule (3 referrals or more). In this case, ALL 10 persons (Persons A to J) will receive 20% rebates.
- Using Referrers only:
- Persons A, B, C and F are considered as referrers and will all receive rebates. The others will not.
- Person A has 3 referrals (referral link A is used three times by Persons B, C, and J). and will receive a 20% rebate.
- Persons B, C and F each have 2 referrals and will receive a 10% rebate.
