How it sells itself

Turn word of mouth into an automatic growth channel. AmbassadorFlow invites every customer to become an ambassador. They share a personal link and earn rewards when their friends buy. Invitations are sent across multiple touchpoints, increasing participation. More ambassadors mean more referrals, more sales, and more revenue. Recruitment, tracking, payouts, and fraud prevention run automatically.

Gluesale turns your happy customers into a sales channel. After any order, your customer gets a unique referral link automatically. Their friends unlock a first-order discount, and when they buy, your original customer earns a thank you reward all powered by native Shopify discount codes. No spreadsheets. No manual codes. No theme edits. Add Gluesale and your referral program is live.

Key points
  • Recruit ambassadors automatically from multiple touchpoints.
  • Reward ambassadors automatically using store credit
  • Win-win: friends get discounts, ambassadors earn store credit.
  • Block self-referrals and discount abuse automatically.
  • Zero storefront impact, no scripts, no theme code
  • Two sided rewards (friend + referrer), fully configurable
  • Branded invite and reward emails sent under your store name
  • Live dashboard: claims, conversions, conversion rate, spend
