Frequently Asked Questions

How is the cost calculated?

Only new users who downloaded your app and accepted their referral offers are counted. This means that we only charge you when you acquire new paying users, and only for users that came in from the referral. First 10 such users per month are free.

Is it available for Android or Web apps?

We currently only support iOS apps. We have an SDK for native Swift apps and React Native.

Can Apple reject my app for AppStore when using Reef Referral? 

No. None of our clients ever had an issue with Apple's review process related to Reef. Our system relies on Offer Codes to grant your offer, and in Apple's guide they explicitly state that they can be used to grant referral offers: 

"Offer codes can be used in a variety of ways — for example, you can: (...)
• Create a peer-to-peer member referral program that enables current subscribers to share an offer code and receive a benefit for promoting your app. You are responsible for distributing any benefits or rewards to subscribers."

Does it work with RevenueCat, Adapty.io or other similar purchase tracking systems?   

Yes. Since our referral offers are built on Offer Codes, they work the same way as any other AppStore purchase. This means that they would be recognised by any systems that communicate with the AppStore payments.

Do I have to use your UI elements?

No. We provide ready made UI elements to make it faster and easier to add our system to your app, but you are free to design it however you like based on the referral information provided by Reef's SDK.  

I have a different question, how can I contact you?
