Everything you need to know about making introductions, earning referral rewards, and using ReferFront.
What is ReferFront?
ReferFront is a network for making introductions. People post requests for specific connections, and others in the network can refer someone they know who may be a good fit.
How does a referral work?
A requester posts what they're looking for. A referrer finds a request they can help with, submits someone they know, and sets the price for the referral. The requester receives the referral details by email and can decide whether to pursue the connection.
Who sets the referral price?
The referrer sets the price. They choose what they are willing to accept for making the introduction.
Who pays the referral price?
The requester pays the referral price to the person who made the referral.
How much does ReferFront charge?
Your first 2 referrals are free. After that, you can purchase another 2 referrals for $5. Each additional 2 referrals costs $5.
Is there a monthly subscription?
No. ReferFront does not have a monthly subscription. You pay $5 for another 2 referrals only when you need them.
How many referrals do I get for free?
Every user starts with 2 free referrals.
What happens after my 2 free referrals?
You can purchase another 2 referrals for $5. You can continue purchasing additional sets of 2 referrals whenever you need them.
Do I have to pay to post a request?
No. Posting a request is free. ReferFront charges for sending referrals, not for posting requests.
Who receives the referral payment?
The person who made the referral receives the price they set for the referral.
Does the person being referred have to accept?
ReferFront does not contact or require anything from the person being referred. The requester receives their contact details and decides whether to make the connection.
When does a referrer get paid?
Payment is between the requester and referrer. Once the requester decides to pursue the referral, they pay the referrer the agreed price.
What makes a good referral?
A good referral is someone who is relevant to the request and who you have a genuine connection with. The goal is to make useful introductions, not simply submit someone's contact information.
Can I refer someone I don't know?
ReferFront is built around personal introductions. You should only submit someone when you have a legitimate reason to believe the introduction is appropriate.
Can I make referrals without posting a request?
Yes. You can browse requests and make referrals for opportunities where you can provide a useful introduction.
Does ReferFront guarantee that a referral will become a customer?
No. ReferFront facilitates introductions; it does not guarantee a sale, contract, customer relationship, or other business outcome.
What if I have a problem with a referral?
ReferFront keeps a record of referral activity so that issues can be reviewed. Repeated problems or bad-faith activity may affect a user's reputation or ability to use the platform.
Can I decline a referral?
The requester can decide whether to pursue a referral after receiving the referral details. There is no requirement to proceed with a connection.
Do I need to know the requester personally?
No. The purpose of ReferFront is to help people discover opportunities across a broader network. What matters is that the referral you make is relevant and genuine.
