πŸ”— Using Your Referral Link & Credits

Share your link, earn credits, and reduce your monthly bill

Once you’re part of the Droplink Referral Program, everything revolves around two things:
your referral link and your referral credits.

This article shows you where to find your link, how to use it effectively, and how your earned credits are applied automatically.


πŸ“ Where to find your referral link

You’ll find your personal referral link in the Referral Dashboard.

There, you can:

  • Copy your referral link with one click

  • Share it directly using the built-in share options

  • Track who signed up using your link

Each user has a unique referral link, so all sign-ups are attributed correctly.


πŸ“’ How to share your referral link effectively

You can share your referral link anywhere you like.
The most effective places are usually:

  • πŸ‘₯ Friends or colleagues who already run Shopify stores

  • πŸ’¬ Discord communities or private groups

  • 🐦 X / Twitter

  • πŸ“Ή YouTube descriptions or tutorials

  • 🧠 Personal recommendations (always the strongest)

Tip:
Be honest about why you use Droplink.
Referrals work best when people trust your experience β€” not when links are spammed.


πŸ’° How referral credits work

When a referred user subscribes to a paid plan, you earn referral credits.

These credits:

  • Are automatically added to your account balance

  • Are applied to your next invoice

  • Can cover up to 100 % of your monthly subscription cost

  • Roll over if not fully used

You don’t need to activate or select anything β€” Droplink handles this automatically.


πŸ”„ Rollover explained (simple)

If your referral credits are higher than your next invoice:

  • The unused amount is saved

  • It is applied to future billing periods

Nothing is lost as long as your account remains active.


πŸ“Š Tracking your referrals & credits

Inside the Referral Dashboard, you can see:

  • How many users you invited

  • Which referrals are active

  • Your current credit balance

  • How much will be applied to your next bill

This gives you a clear overview at all times β€” no guessing.


⏳ When credits are applied

Referral credits are applied:

  • Automatically

  • At the time of billing

If a referred user cancels their subscription, no new referral credits are generated going forward.


πŸ’‘ Best practices for earning more referral credits

  • Recommend Droplink only if it truly fits the user

  • Explain how you use it, not just what it is

  • Share real workflows or results

  • Focus on long-term value, not quick sign-ups

A few high-quality referrals are more valuable than many inactive ones.


βœ… Summary

Using the Referral Program is simple:

  • πŸ”— Share your personal referral link

  • 🎁 Give friends a lifetime discount

  • πŸ’° Earn credits automatically

  • πŸ”„ Reduce your monthly Droplink costs

No setup. No management. Just share and benefit.
