<h2><strong>Boost your organic sales by adding a customer referral program to your WooCommerce store.</strong></h2>
<p>Adding a referral program to your WooCommerce store is a great way to increase your word-of-mouth sales and numerous studies show that people trust recommendations from people they know.</p>
<p>With AutomateWoo Refer A Friend you can quickly set up a referral program that is customized for your store.</p>
<p>Run a ‘coupon based’ campaign where advocates can share a unique coupon, giving the friend a discount and the advocate store credit for each successful referral.

<h2>Why Use Refer A Friend?</h2>

<h3>Intuitive Referral Process</h3>

<h3>Fraud Prevention</h3>
<p>It’s important for your customer referral program to include fraud prevention methods. Our WooCommerce Refer A Friend add-on has a few fraud rules out of the box:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Advocate IP address matches that of the customer</strong> – The referral will be marked as potentially fraudulent and will be blocked from auto-approval. Matching IP addresses don’t always mean that the referral is fraudulent as your store could be shared among co-workers who use the same IP address.</li>
<li><strong>Matching cookies</strong> – A cookie is placed in the advocates browser and if present they will not be able to use a referral coupon. If there is a match the coupon cannot be used.</li>
<li><strong>Matching emails</strong> – When attempting to use a referral coupon the billing email is checked against any previous orders. If there is a match the coupon cannot be used.</li>
</ul>
