Let’s grow, connect, and thrive together!

🎉 Unlock the Magic of Mutual Discounts 🎉

With EchoRewards, your customers can share coupons with their friends and family. When someone redeems a coupon, the recipient receives a discount, and the person who shared it can also be rewarded.

This approach helps turn customers into advocates and can increase customer acquisition.

EchoRewards Refer a Friend Plugin Helps you Achieve:

  • Increased Customer Acquisition: People are more likely to try a new product or service when recommended by someone they trust. This WooCommerce coupon plugin enables customer-to-customer referrals.
  • Reduced Marketing Costs: Customer referrals can reduce the cost of acquiring new customers compared to some advertising channels.
  • Enhanced Customer Loyalty: Offering referral rewards shows appreciation, which may increase customer retention.
  • Trackable Marketing: Track which customers provide referrals and which channels perform best.

🔥 More Awesome Plugins

If you like EchoReward, then consider checking out our other awesome projects:

Build Instructions

The admin and frontend interfaces are built with React and compiled with webpack. The complete, uncompiled source code is included in this plugin under react-app/, and the compiled bundles are written to build/ (with accompanying .map source map files).

External services

This plugin relies on the following third-party services. Each is described below with what it is used for, what data is sent, and when it is sent.

Appsero (telemetry and license/update checks)

EchoRewards uses the Appsero SDK to collect optional telemetry that helps us troubleshoot problems and improve the plugin.

Appsero does not gather any data by default. Data is only collected after the site administrator explicitly opts in through the admin notice. When opted in, it sends the site URL, WordPress and PHP versions, the plugin version and active/inactive plugin and theme information, and the administrator’s name and email address. Data is sent when the plugin is activated or deactivated, and periodically thereafter.

Service provided by Appsero: privacy policy.

icanhazip.com (IP address lookup)

As part of the optional Appsero telemetry described above, the site’s public IP address is looked up through icanhazip.com. No data about your site or its visitors is transmitted to this service; the request only returns the IP address of the server making it. This request is only made when telemetry has been enabled by the administrator.

Service provided by icanhazip.com: terms of service and privacy policy.

WPPOOL newsletter and CRM (fluent.wppool.dev)

If the site administrator opts in through the admin notice, the administrator’s name and email address are sent to WPPOOL’s own CRM so we can send product updates and onboarding emails. Nothing is sent unless the administrator opts in.

Service provided by WPPOOL: terms of service, privacy policy.

QR Server (QR codes for WeChat sharing)

When the referral sharing options include WeChat, the plugin displays a QR code image generated by the QR Server API. The referral link or referral coupon message being shared is sent to api.qrserver.com as part of the image URL so the QR code can be generated. This happens when a customer views the referral sharing options with WeChat enabled. If you do not enable WeChat as a sharing platform, no request is made to this service.

Service provided by QR Server: terms of service and privacy policy.

Privacy Policy

EchoReward uses Appsero SDK to collect some telemetry data upon user’s confirmation. This helps us to troubleshoot problems faster & make product improvements.

Appsero SDK does not gather any data by default. The SDK only starts gathering basic telemetry data when a user allows it via the admin notice. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users.

Integrating Appsero SDK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data, without confirmation from users in any case.

Learn more about how Appsero collects and uses this data.

FAQ

How does the WooCommerce referral system work in EchoRewards?

Each customer gets a unique referral coupon and referral link. When someone uses that link or coupon to make a purchase, EchoRewards automatically tracks the referral and issues reward coupons or reward points to the referrer. The referral and reward process is fully automated.

Do I need coding knowledge to set up a referral program?

No. EchoRewards is built for store owners, not developers. Install, configure your referral discount amounts, and your referral program is live.

Can I reward both the referrer and the referred friend?

Yes. EchoRewards lets you set separate reward amounts for the referrer and the friend. Most WooCommerce referral plugins only reward one side.

What types of rewards can I offer in a referral program?

The free version supports percentage and fixed amount referral coupons. The Pro version also supports reward points, custom reward logic per customer, and recurring rewards for WooCommerce Subscriptions.

Can I control which customers participate in the referral program?

Yes. You can require customers to have at least one completed order before they can refer others. Pro users can also customize referral and reward logic individually per customer, giving full control over who earns what.

Where do I get support?

Use the official WordPress support forum to report issues.

I can not understand how the admin can see ALL referrals? There is Reports & Analytics tab, but there I can not see WHO was invited by WHOM. Is it possible to see something like this?

This product is just amazing. You can create a referral system and increase your sales and get new customers at the same time. I have been using this for a while. The UI is just amazing and easy to understand. Support is very helpful. There was a conflict with another of my plugins and they released a new update really fast. All I can say is that this plugin is worth it. 5 starts from me guys. Thank you
