Salons
Your best clients already send you business
They tell friends, share on Instagram, and bring in new appointments. Now you can see who, reward them with gift cards, and turn one referral into a chain reaction.
How it works
How ViralRef works for salons
Live in under five minutes: no new hardware, nothing to learn at the front desk.
1
Connect Square
One-click OAuth. ViralRef reads payments, creates gift cards, and tracks customers automatically.
2
Set rewards
Choose gift card amounts for referrers and new clients. Or use auto-apply coupons for first-visit discounts.
3
Clients share & earn
Every client gets a link. When their friend books and pays, both get rewarded. The new client becomes a referrer too.
Built for how salons actually work
The chair does the marketing
Clients share referral links via text, Instagram, or in person
New clients get a gift card reward on their first visit
Referring clients earn gift cards that bring them back for their next appointment
Stylists get their own referral links through My Referrals
Every new client becomes a referrer automatically
Commission tiers reward your most active referrers with higher rates
QR codes for front desk, mirrors, and business cards
Automatic fraud detection catches self-referrals
“We used to ask 'how did you hear about us?' and half the time they couldn't remember. Now every referral is tracked automatically and both sides earn a gift card.”
