Awarding points when your staff share the app with their colleagues is an easy way to boost app engagement and grow your pool of potential candidates. These points are awarded to the referrer when the new app user logs in to the app for the first time. It’s super easy to set this up, and this guide will show you how.

💡Top Tip! In order to set up and edit points awards for sharing the app with a colleague, you will need to have 'manage account settings' permission on your account. Your Care Friends lead will be able to check your account permissions and make any changes required.

Step 1: From your dashboard, click on Bonus Points on the left tabs, and then Automations on the top tabs.

Step 2: Start setting up your automation by ticking the box next to: ‘Automatically award any referring app user…’

Step 3: You can choose to award 3, 5 or 10 points whenever a referred colleague registers for the Care Friends app, by clicking the drop-down menu highlighted below and selecting your preferred points level. Once done, simply click save on the top right of the screen and any employee who refers a colleague to start using Care Friends will receive these points automatically when their colleague logs onto the app for the first time.

And that's it! You have now set up automated bonus points for sharing the app with a colleague!

You can edit the number of points to be awarded at any time by selecting a new number from the drop-down points award menu and clicking Save.

To switch off the automated bonus completely, simply untick the box and click Save. Users can still share the app with colleagues but they will not receive any points.

We hope this helps. If you have any questions about awarding points for app sharing or anything else, please get in touch by clicking on the chat icon in the bottom right of your screen.
