Name Sharing

There is a way to enable sharing referral offers by the Advocate name.

Name Sharing User Flow

For users, the name sharing would proceed as follows:

  1. The Advocate opens the referral offer share page.

  2. The Advocate opts to share the offer by their personal name.

  3. The Advocate confirms or edits their personal name [1].

  4. The Advocate tells their personal name to their Friends in any way they find suitable.

  5. The Friend visits site and opens the Claim by Name widget.

  6. The Friend enters their email and the Advocate’s name.

  7. The Friend receives a Click Reward (if it was configured in the Advocate campaign).


Name Sharing Setup

To make name sharing work, at least two referral campaigns are required:

Personal name sharing channel is available as a configuration localization on Advocate share page in all new campaign templates. It should be enabled so that the Advocate can enter/edit their name on a share page.

If you don’t have the localization in your campaign code, you can add it manually in the HTML & CSS editor mode.

{% assign advocate_share_page_channel_personal_name = "advocate_share_page_channel_personal_name" | localize: trait: "boolean", default: "Disabled" %}

There can be multiple Advocate campaigns, as well as multiple Friend campaigns. Upon a reward claim by a Friend, the newest offer from the respective Advocate will be matched.

Important

Make sure to set up both advocate and friend incentives in the Advocate campaign. The Claim by Name campaign does not hold any incentive configuration and only serves to show a claim widget.

Note

All advocate and friend metrics are counted toward the Advocate campaign.
