ReferralHero helps run referral campaigns, waitlists and loyalty promotions. Review current Basic and Pro pricing, rewards, SMS fees and conflicting legacy plans.
Source-based profile. Official sources checked 4 Nov 2026. No hands-on score assigned.
ReferralHero's referral and promotion feature breadth is its value proposition, but multiple conflicting pricing snapshots on vendor URLs require direct confirmation. Do not extrapolate free, SMS or payout costs from a legacy page.
Brands needing gamified referral acquisition, viral waitlists, contest campaigns, customer advocacy or a flexible branded refer-a-friend funnel.
Founders seeking unambiguous public pricing or a direct lifetime SaaS subscription affiliate payout ledger without campaign setup.
6 of 6 facts documented in official sources
A legacy pricing version advertises a free branded 25-subscriber tier. A more recent pricing version advertises paid Basic and Pro with seven-day trials and does not show the same permanent free tier. Do not assume free merchant access is currently available.
One- or two-sided referral incentives may be issued as cash, gift cards, donations and promotions. Unlike SaaS commission software, the product's core focus includes referrals, waitlists, contests and customer advocacy rather than a fixed Stripe recurring-invoice commission system.
Referral links, campaign signup and attribution, fraud algorithms, automated emails and audience/member limits. Recent pricing highlights AI insights and self-service campaign builder; mobile SDK access is indicated under Pro with annual-plan restrictions.
The newer official offer advertises reward distribution with processing fees from 2.5% plus $0.50 and SMS charges separately. Budget the actual reward cost, payment provider fees and subscriber volume beyond base subscription.
ReferralHero offers campaign sharing widgets, email/SMS marketing, integrations and APIs. A recent product page lists more than 500 integrations on Pro. Confirm exact ESP, CRM, ecommerce or SDK version required.
Recent pricing explicitly puts JavaScript, REST API and mobile SDK in Pro, while older plan tables list API differently. The current Pro level should be treated as the supported baseline until the vendor confirms otherwise.
Official pricing routes currently show conflicting versions. Newer /pricing route lists Basic $249/month and Pro $399/month, both with seven-day trials; an older rendering lists Pro $199 and a branded 25-subscriber free tier. Confirm latest account pricing directly.
The more recent official page lists Basic at $249/month for 1,000 subscribers (advocates and referrals), one self-serve campaign and 25,000 monthly automation emails, and Pro at $399/month with unlimited subscribers, campaigns, branding and API access. Basic advertises more than 1,000 reward choices with processing fees starting at 2.5% plus $0.50 per payout; SMS is pay-as-you-go by country. Another official crawl of the same nominal pricing URL still shows older Pro $199/Premium $399 and a 25-subscriber free tier. This conflict is documented here instead of implying one universal evergreen price.
