Commerce platform integration
Turn the relationships around your BigCommerce store into a measurable acquisition channel. The BigCommerce app connects your store to ReferralCandy without a separate tracking-code project. ReferralCandy gives every advocate or affiliate a personal link, recognizes the purchases they influence, and keeps reward operations connected to real orders.
A dedicated BigCommerce app connection for store purchase data.
Why connect BigCommerce
Your commerce platform already holds the moments that make a referral program work: a completed purchase, a customer identity, an order value, and a relationship worth sharing. ReferralCandy connects those moments so your team can design the campaign and incentive while the integration carries purchase data into attribution and rewards.
Install ReferralCandy as a BigCommerce app when you create your ReferralCandy account. The app connects the store so purchase data can reach the campaign. Once connected, ReferralCandy can receive the purchase information it needs to register customers and detect referred orders.
Launch referral campaigns for existing customers and affiliate campaigns for creators or partners, each with its own audience, offer, and reward rules.
Personal referral links connect the introduction to the order. Reward conditions and review periods give your team control before a reward becomes due.

How it works
The integration connects the order lifecycle in BigCommerce with the advocate lifecycle in ReferralCandy.
Install ReferralCandy as a BigCommerce app when you create your ReferralCandy account. The app connects the store so purchase data can reach the campaign.
Choose referral or affiliate, define the target audience, and set the reward and friend offer that fit your economics.
Enrollment turns eligible contacts into advocates or affiliates and gives each person a link that can be shared across email, messaging, social, or a portal.
When a referred friend buys, the store connection sends the purchase to ReferralCandy for attribution, eligibility review, reporting, and reward delivery.
Commerce operations
The store connection is the foundation. Above it, your growth team can change the audience, offer, creative, and campaign timing as the brand learns what motivates customers to share.
ReferralCandy installs as a BigCommerce app and uses the connected store’s purchase data for contact registration, referral attribution, and reward processing.
Customize campaign emails, hosted pages, signup surfaces, sharing messages, colors, typography, and the referral subdomain.
Set purchase thresholds, eligible orders, review timing, and reward conditions so the campaign follows the same commercial rules as the store.
Who it is for
Use this integration when the program needs to connect to real BigCommerce purchases and remain manageable by the team after launch.
