WooCommerce Loyalty Points & Rewards / Configuration July 29, 2026

Set Up Referrals

Set up WooCommerce referrals so customers can invite others and receive loyalty rewards when referral conditions are met.

Applies to 1.2.2+ Stable Verified July 29, 2026

Referrals help existing customers bring new customers to your store. WooCommerce Loyalty Premium supports referral links and referral coupons.

Open Referral Settings

  1. Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Loyalty → Referrals.
  2. Choose whether to enable referral via link, referral via coupon, or both.

Link-based referrals give each customer a referral URL. When someone purchases through that link, the referrer and/or referee can receive points based on the configured rules.

Set per-level values for:

  • Referrer earnings: points given to the customer who shared the link.
  • Referee earnings: points given to the new customer.

Referral via Coupon

Coupon-based referrals create or provide a referral coupon for the customer to share.

Configure:

  • Coupon format: random, user ID, or username.
  • Discount type: percentage, fixed cart, or fixed product.
  • Referrer earnings: points for the referring customer.
  • Referee discounts: discount for the new customer.

Customer View

When referrals are enabled, customers can see referral options inside the My Points account page.

Start with referral coupons if your customers are used to sharing coupon codes. Use referral links if you want a simpler shareable URL.

Referral programs should also use clear customer emails. Review Configure Loyalty Email Notifications after setting referral rules.
