Get started with Refgrow in 3 steps

Set up a Refgrow affiliate program on your website in minutes to grow your business with affiliates. Here is how to get started.

1. Install tracking script

Add the tracking script to the <head> section of your website:

html

<script
  src="https://scripts.refgrowcdn.com/latest.js"
  data-project-id="YOUR_PROJECT_ID"
  async defer>
</script>

Important: Replace YOUR_PROJECT_ID with your actual project ID from the Refgrow dashboard.

2. Add affiliate dashboard

Embed the affiliate dashboard into your website so affiliates can track their performance and earnings. Alternatively, you can use the hosted Affiliate Portal instead of embedding a widget.

Option 1: With user email (Referral Program)

Use this when you know the user's email address (e.g., they are already logged in):

html

<div id="refgrow"
  data-project-id="YOUR_PROJECT_ID"
  data-project-email="user@example.com">
</div>
<script src="https://scripts.refgrowcdn.com/page.js" async defer></script>

Option 2: Without user email (Affiliate Program)

Use this when users need to enter their email to access the dashboard:

html

<div id="refgrow"
  data-project-id="YOUR_PROJECT_ID">
</div>
<script src="https://scripts.refgrowcdn.com/page.js" async defer></script>

Note: The dashboard will automatically handle user authentication and show personalized affiliate data.

3. Track user registrations (optional)

If your business has a registration step before purchase, add this tracking call after successful user signups:

javascript

Refgrow(0, 'signup', 'user@example.com');

When to use: Call this function on your registration success page or after successful user signup to track when referred users create accounts. Replace user@example.com with the actual user's email address.

4. Connect payment provider
