About ReferralCodes

ReferralCodes is a referral discovery and sharing platform that helps consumers find, share and manage refer-a-friend offers, while helping brands generate more customer acquisition through word-of-mouth.

Founded in London, ReferralCodes has grown into an international referral community with more than 500,000 registered members, coverage of 20,000+ brands, stores and apps, and more than 4 million annual visitors.

Our goal is simple: make personal recommendations easier to share, easier to discover and more rewarding.

ReferralCodes is operated by Referral Ventures Limited, the company behind ReferralLinks and RewardCircle.

Our Mission

Rewarding Word-of-Mouth

We are committed to empowering individuals to earn meaningful rewards by sharing their support. At ReferralCodes, we make word-of-mouth advocacy simple and rewarding for everyone, everywhere.

Our Vision

Leading the Referral Revolution

Our vision is to create a world where every recommendation transforms into opportunity. We aim to be the leading platform for referrals, reviews & recommendations — building a hub where trusted advocacy and rewards drive success for individuals & brands.

What ReferralCodes Does

Find referral codes and offers

Consumers use ReferralCodes to discover referral links, referral codes and refer-a-friend offers from thousands of brands across categories including finance, shopping, travel, food, technology, utilities and subscriptions.

Unlike ordinary voucher-code sites, ReferralCodes focuses specifically on person-to-person referrals and recommendations.

Share and manage your referrals

Members can create a free ReferralCodes profile where they store and share their own referral links and codes.

ReferralCodes verifies submissions, removes duplicates and broken offers, and gives members tools to see activity generated by their referrals.

Recommend brands you genuinely use

Members can recommend and review brands, follow other people and build a personal profile around the products, services and companies they genuinely support — an additional layer of human recommendation when consumers need to distinguish genuine experiences from paid or automatically generated content.

Help brands grow referral programmes

Brands can use ReferralCodes to increase the visibility and distribution of their existing referral programmes, reach more potential advocates and customers, and understand how consumers interact with their referral offers across 20,000+ brands.

Referral data and distribution

ReferralCodes has built a proprietary dataset around referral programmes, brands, consumer recommendations and referral activity. Selected commercial partners can use ReferralCodes for additional distribution, promotional tools and referral intelligence. Businesses and authorised platforms can also discuss access to ReferralCodes data through our commercial data-feed offering.

What Makes ReferralCodes Different?

Built specifically for referrals

ReferralCodes isn't simply a coupon database. The platform was designed around refer-a-friend programmes: individual advocates, unique referral URLs and codes, referral rewards and trusted recommendations.

Referrals belong to real people

A referral on ReferralCodes is generally attached to a member and their profile rather than presented as an anonymous promotional code — because referral marketing is fundamentally personal.

Consumers can both save and earn

ReferralCodes lets visitors find offers that can save them money while also allowing existing customers to share their own referral offers and potentially earn rewards from the underlying brand. The reward itself is provided by the relevant brand rather than ReferralCodes unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Referral distribution for brands

Most referral-software companies provide the infrastructure for a brand to run a programme but rely on the brand's existing customers to create all of the distribution. ReferralCodes already provides a destination where people actively find and share referrals. That distribution capability is also available to brands using our sister platform, ReferralLinks.

Part of a broader word-of-mouth ecosystem

ReferralCodes is one of three connected products operated by Referral Ventures Limited:

  • ReferralCodes.com — discovery and distribution of referral offers.
  • ReferralLinks.com — software for brands to create and manage referral programmes.
  • RewardCircle.com — recommendations and rewards for everyday consumer influence.

Together they address different parts of the same problem: helping genuine customer advocacy travel further online.

Who Uses ReferralCodes?

ReferralCodes is used by:

  • Consumers looking for referral offers before joining or buying from a brand.
  • Existing customers and advocates who want somewhere to store and share their referral links.
  • Friends and families who want to share recommendations within their own networks.
  • Brands with existing referral programmes that want additional visibility and participation.
  • Growth and referral-marketing teams seeking additional customer-acquisition channels.
  • Platforms and commercial partners requiring structured referral information or distribution.

ReferralCodes serves users internationally, with particularly significant activity in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and other English-speaking markets.

The Team Behind ReferralCodes

Our Team

ReferralCodes was founded by Ashley Brady, an entrepreneur with a background in technology and building online businesses.

The idea came from a simple observation: thousands of companies offered valuable refer-a-friend programmes, but consumers had no good central place to store, discover and exchange those referrals. What began as a specialist referral-code site developed into a much broader word-of-mouth platform.

How ReferralCodes Works

For consumers, ReferralCodes is primarily a self-service platform. Search for a brand, find an available referral offer and follow the instructions supplied with it. Members can also create a free account to add their own referrals, recommendations and profile.

Referral submissions are reviewed for quality. ReferralCodes generally requires links to lead directly to the relevant brand rather than through unrelated intermediary websites, and duplicate or invalid submissions may be rejected. See our FAQ for more detail.

For businesses, ReferralCodes offers both self-service and managed partnership options. Brands can contact the partnerships team via our Partners page to discuss referral distribution, promotional opportunities, data and integration with the wider Referral Ventures platform.
