Overview

GrowSurf helps B2C and product-led companies turn customers, users, and partners into a measurable acquisition channel. Launch referral programs that reward customer advocacy and affiliate programs that help partners promote your brand—without building the tracking, referral attribution, and reward infrastructure yourself.

GrowSurf customers see results like 312% average ROI, 30% of new leads from referrals, and 15% of ARR from referrals.

GrowSurf creates unique referral links, tracks who referred whom, automates rewards and commissions, and shows which participants and programs drive results. Teams can launch faster, engage advocates at the right moment, and grow through trusted recommendations.

How We Work Together

GrowSurf brings referral performance into Braze so marketers can act on it. Use participant referral links, referral counts, statuses, referrer details, and milestone progress to build precise audiences and send more relevant lifecycle messages.

Connect GrowSurf with a dedicated Braze REST API key that has the users.track permission. GrowSurf matches participants to Braze profiles by email and syncs 15 grsf_ custom attributes. Add each participant’s unique referral link to campaigns with Liquid, celebrate milestones, remind customers who are close to earning a reward, and re-engage promising advocates.

The integration updates profile attributes only. It does not send custom events, purchases, or subscription changes.

Features

Launch referral and affiliate programs faster

  • Create branded referral programs for customers and affiliate programs for partners without building attribution, link tracking, reward automation, or commission management from scratch.

Turn referral data into personal Braze messages

Place each participant’s unique referral link directly into Braze campaigns. Personalize messages using referral status, referral counts, referrer details, and milestone progress.

Activate the advocates most likely to drive growth

Build Braze audiences for top referrers, newly referred customers, inactive advocates, or participants who are one referral away from a reward. Reach each group with a message designed for its next action.
