    What merchants praise

    I was looking for a referral app that could meet these criteria: Uncomplicated to use for customers // Modern and customizable appearance // Not too flashy on the storefront. After testing several referral apps, I almost gave up hope until I found this one. PROs: Very well-thought-out app //Easy to set up // Various customizable options to integrate widgets in the store. I am using a subtle widget which is not right "in-your-face". Widgets can be flashy and obvious if wanted. // Beautiful & modern design // Fast, friendly and competent support. Thanks, Mostafa!

Install footprint is observed via Ongoing.AI’s tech-detection pass against actively-tracked Shopify storefronts. Catalog position is computed at snapshot time against every active app sharing the primary category. Snapshot generated .
