Quick answer
The Referral Admin Workflow brings referral review work into one clearer admin view. It can surface attribution notes, campaign records, referral terms concerns, abuse-watch items, partner scorecards, landing reviews, customer welcome notes and thank-you messages. This helps the team follow up properly while keeping rewards, payouts and customer changes manual.
📋 How it works in practice
A referred customer leaves a thank-you note after using a local QR code. At the same time, the referral has an referral terms warning and is linked to a campaign. The consolidated workflow gives admin one place to see the welcome note, attribution context, campaign source and review items before responding or making any manual decision.
Why one referral workflow helps
As referral tools grow, admin should not need to open ten pages just to understand one customer or partner referral.
What the workflow can bring together
It can consolidate attribution, campaigns, referral terms, abuse watch, landing optimisation, customer journey reports, partner portal review, scorecards, welcome notes and reward-review links.
How customers benefit
Customers benefit when follow-up is less likely to be missed. Their request, welcome note or referral question can be reviewed with the right context.
How partners benefit
Partners benefit because campaign performance, referral terms questions and relationship notes can be reviewed in a more organised way.
Why manual control remains important
A workflow dashboard should organise the work. It should not automatically approve rewards, change customer records, send messages or make payout decisions.
Practical next steps
- Customer starts from a referral link or welcome page.
- Referral details are preserved where possible.
- Admin terms attribution, campaign and referral terms context.
- Any warning or thank-you note is reviewed manually.
- The team records the follow-up or decision in a controlled way.
Important note: Referral rewards depend on the actual job and the referral terms.
