What you get with Refgrow + Chrome Extensions
Everything you need to run a professional affiliate program on top of Chrome Extensions.
Embed inside the popup
The Refgrow widget is a one-line script tag that works inside extension popups and options pages. Users see their referral link without leaving the extension.
Cookie-free tracking
Refgrow can attribute referrals via email and localStorage instead of third-party cookies, which extensions and Chrome's tracking-prevention often strip.
Track paid upgrades
Free Chrome Web Store install is just the start. Refgrow captures the paid upgrade via Stripe/Paddle/Polar webhook and credits the referrer.
Flat pricing
$29-$199/mo. No revenue share, no per-install fees, no Chrome-store-percentage on top.
Custom branded portal
On Pro+, host a referral portal at your own subdomain (e.g. partners.yourextension.com) for power users sharing across communities.
API for in-extension UX
If embedding the script doesn't fit, our REST API lets you build a fully custom referral UI inside your extension.
Set up in 3 simple steps
Follow the provider connection, widget, and tracking steps for your program.
Connect your billing provider
Most Chrome extensions monetize via Stripe or Paddle Subscription. Connect it to Refgrow with one click; the webhook is auto-configured.
Add tracking to your extension
Add the tracking script to your extension's popup or options HTML, or call the Refgrow REST API directly from your background script.
<script src="https://scripts.refgrowcdn.com/latest.js"
data-project-id="YOUR_PROJECT_ID"></script>The widget uses the refgrow container and page.js. The separate latest.js script records referral attribution; it does not render the dashboard. Provider webhooks or API events are still required to confirm paid conversions.
Set the reward and launch
Pick a flat reward per paid user, a recurring percentage, or both. Send your power users their referral links and they start sharing in extension communities.
Verify before you invite partners
After connecting Chrome Extensions, open a referral link in a fresh browser session and complete your test checkout. Check that the customer, sale, and commission appear in your workspace.
Attribution must reach checkout through the supported referral parameter, metadata, coupon, or email flow for your integration. Adding a tracking script alone does not connect every custom checkout.

How tracking works
Refgrow tracks Chrome extension referrals through the Web Store install plus your billing provider:
User shares referral link
The link routes through your landing page, captures the referral code, and redirects to the Chrome Web Store.
Visitor installs the extension
Free install is recorded as a signup conversion if you sync the install event via your backend.
Visitor upgrades to paid
Stripe/Paddle/Polar webhook fires. Refgrow matches the paid customer's email to the referral attribution.
Commission calculated
Per your rules: per-paid-user, recurring, or tiered. Optionally clawed back on cancellation.
Referrer gets paid
PayPal or Wise auto-payout fires at your minimum threshold.
