Frequently asked questions

Does an invitation sent to a friend count as a referred friend?

The 'Refer a Friend' feature consists of encouraging the users to share the promotion to get their friends to participate. To get a referred friend in the promotion, the friend has to accept the invitation and sign up in the promotion as well by filling in the registration form. If you're interested in the Refer a Friend feature for your contest, check out these 5 Keys to Creating a Successful Recruiters Contest. 

Can I give additional entries in the prize draw for referring friends?

You can do two different things with the Refer a Friend system: 1) Only the participants that have reached a minimum number of referred friends enter in the final prize draw. 2) Run a random draw among all participants but give additional entries in the draw per referred friend. You can, for example, give 1 additional entry per referred friend.
