How the Referral Program Works
Once approved, participants will receive a unique referral link and/or discount code to share with new customers. A “referred customer” is defined as a new customer who has not previously made a purchase from Marlo’s Matcha and who completes an order using a valid referral link or code.
Referral Rewards
Customer Reward
- Referred customers receive 10% off their first order when purchasing through a valid referral link or code.
Referrer Reward
- Participants earn 15% back in Marlo’s Matcha store credit on every qualifying purchase made through their referral link or code.
Rewards are only issued for completed, paid and non-refunded orders. If an order is cancelled, returned or refunded, the corresponding store credit will be removed from the participant’s balance.
Store Credit and Minimum Payout
- All referral rewards are issued as Marlo’s Matcha store credit only.
- Store credit has no cash value, is non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for cash.
- Referral rewards become redeemable once a participant’s total accrued store credit reaches a minimum balance of £28.
