Customer-powered commerce

Your customers already recommend you. Now get paid for it.

Authorizd hands every shopper a personal link. Their friends save, they earn a cut of the sales they bring, and you only ever pay for orders that land.

No customer app. No upfront cost. You set the rewards.

Works with Shopify · cookieless attribution via unique discount codes · automatic, refund-safe payouts · channel-agnostic core

How it works

Three steps. Zero work for your customers.

It runs itself from the moment someone checks out.

🛒
STEP 1

Add it to your store

Install the Authorizd app in a few minutes. No code, no developer.

🔗
STEP 2

Customers share a link

After they buy, each shopper gets a personal link. Friends who use it get a discount you set.

💸
STEP 3

You pay only when it works

A friend orders → you pay a small commission. A new sale and a new customer, every time.

Why it's different

Reward sales, not selfies.

Most advocacy programs pay for activity nobody can measure. Authorizd pays for revenue you can see.

Outcome-based

Pay for orders, not posts

Commission is tied to attributed sales — so your reward budget only spends when revenue arrives.

You're in control

You hold the dial

Set the friend's discount and the advocate's commission per campaign. We only ever take a small, fixed fee.

Hands-off

Payouts on autopilot

Store credit, PayPal, or bank. A holdback window means a refund never pays out a commission you didn't earn.

Future-proof

Built channel-agnostic

Shopify today. A headless build, retail, or wholesale tomorrow — the same referral engine underneath.

The economics

Every referred sale, split the way you decide.

You choose what your customer's friend saves and what your advocate earns. The only number we set is our platform fee, agreed up front for your store — everything else is yours.

Questions

The short answers.

Do my customers need to download anything?

No. After checkout they get a link they can copy or share straight from the order page — no app, no account.

What happens if a referred order is refunded?

Commissions sit in a holdback window before they pay out. If the order is refunded in that time, the commission is clawed back automatically — so you never pay for a sale that didn't stick. And if a return lands even later, after you've already been billed for that sale, the amount you paid is automatically credited back as a deduction on your next Authorizd bill (a large credit simply keeps deducting across bills until it's fully repaid). Either way, you never end up paying for a refunded order.

What's the usage cap on my bill?

Shopify requires every usage-based app plan to have a spending cap you approve up front — it's a protection for you, and Authorizd can never bill past it. If your referral volume grows toward the cap, raise it in Settings → Plan & billing (Shopify asks you to approve the new number; raising it costs nothing by itself). You'll see a warning in the app before you get close.

How does Authorizd make money?

A small, fixed platform fee on referred sales. We don't take a cut of your margin beyond that, and the discount and commission rates are entirely yours to set.

Does it only work on Shopify?

Shopify is where we start, but the referral engine is channel-agnostic by design — the same core is built to power headless storefronts and other platforms next.

How are referrals tracked without cookies?

Each referral link carries its own unique discount code. When that code lands on an order, the sale is attributed to the advocate — no third-party cookies, no tracking pixels.

Put your customers to work.

Turn the recommendations already happening into a sales channel you can measure — and pay for only when it pays off.
