The reward condition is unclear
Sending a link, registering, booking, and completing a checkout are separate events.
For solo and small beauty-service stores
Connect referrals and return visits
beyond checkout.
Record a loyal customer’s direct introduction. After their friend actually visits and completes the in-store checkout, points are recorded for both people when the store settings and actual payment produce a reward.
No setup fee or fixed monthly fee. Service-credit conditions are available before registration.
The first customer pair
1. Join from the store QR
Use the LINE or web method selected by the store. No dedicated app is required.
2. A regular shares a link
Share directly with someone they want to tell, without requiring a public post.
3. The friend actually visits
After the normal checkout, staff scan the QR and confirm the amount.
4. Both receive points when earned
When points are generated, the visitor and direct referrer receive a thank-you they can use next time.
Where programs stall
A referral program will not last if nobody knows when a reward is earned.
A discount alone gives little reason to return
Leave a thank-you that can be used at the store after a real visit, not only a first-time discount.
Bookings, membership, and referrals are separate
Keep points, history, the referral link, and core reservations on one member page.
Saveable checklist
Five decisions before starting referrals
Whether or not you use Link-Win, decide these five items first so the program does not end as a one-time discount.
- Can you record which customer made the introduction?
- Is the referral thank-you issued only after a real visit and checkout?
- Does the thank-you create a reason to return?
- Can customers join without installing another app?
- Can QR scanning and amount confirmation fit the normal checkout?
Stores that fit—and those that do not yet
More likely to fit
- ・Solo or small operations where return visits and referrals matter
- ・Nail, lash, private beauty, relaxation, hair, or barber services
- ・No need for complex seat, staff, or appointment allocation
- ・No desire to pressure customers into public posting
Less likely to fit today
- ・Detailed automatic allocation across many staff, seats, and requests
- ・Bulk promotional broadcasts through LINE
- ・Multilevel referrals or cash rewards
- ・Online collection of the customer’s purchase payment
Start by testing one customer pair.
No large campaign is needed. Choose the membership method and point rates, show one customer the QR, and check whether the post-checkout flow fits the store.
Prepare a store freeDirect referrals only. Points cannot be cashed out and are intended for use at that store.
