With the Mention Me and Braze integration, you can insert a CTA link in your emails that takes customers to a personalised referral landing page. This promotes sharing and ensures the referral offer is seen and acted on. The personalised link pre-fills the referral page using Braze profile attributes, allowing customers to skip registration and share effortlessly.

​
Prerequisites

Your referral landing page must already be implemented and include the Mention Me tag.

​
Email types to consider

  • Dedicated referral solus emails — recommended every 2-3 months
  • Inclusion within newsletters or promotional emails
  • Persistent CTA (e.g. link or icon) in header/footer of all emails
  • Dedicated step in your customer journey (e.g. post-purchase, welcome series)

​
How it works

  1. You launch a referral promotion or campaign, including a CTA button/link
  2. The recipient clicks the CTA and lands on the referral page
  3. The referral page is automatically populated using Braze-provided customer details
  4. They’re registered and can share the offer right away
  5. They share the offer with their friend through their preferred method
