# Referral Sharing Extensions Referred Club Makes it Easy to Take Advantage of Referral Perks By Joey Haar | Published 2016-09-13 | Business Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/referred-club References: [producthunt](https://www.producthunt.com/tech/referred-club) & [referredclub](http://www.referredclub.com/) 'Referred Club' is a new Chrome browser extension that helps savvy consumers to take advantage of the incentive programs offered by a wealth of companies. While [Uber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rebate-program) popularized the idea of giving out free rides through referrals, it is far from the only company that offers such a program -- even if most consumers think it is. According to Referred Club, there are hundreds of companies that offer some sort of referral bonus. Referred Club essentially [automates the process](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jobfillr) of finding these programs, saving users the labor of searching through company websites and consumer forums to find hidden gems. Once the extension is installed, it will automatically insert a small pop-up window if it detects a [referral program](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waitkit) on that site. Users can then either enter their link into the system or use the link that Referred Club gives them. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [New Ventures](https://www.trendhunter.com/newventures) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Referral Sharing Automation:** Referred Club's browser extension automates the process of finding referral programs, saving users time and effort. - **Hidden Referral Programs:** Referred Club helps users uncover referral bonuses offered by hundreds of companies, beyond just popular ones like Uber. - **Streamlined Referral Link Management:** Referred Club simplifies the process of entering and managing referral links for users. ### Where This Applies - **E-commerce:** Referred Club's extension can benefit e-commerce companies looking to boost customer acquisition through referral programs. - **Travel and Transportation:** Referred Club's extension can be valuable for travel and transportation companies looking to incentivize customers to share their services through referrals. - **Technology and Software:** Referred Club's browser extension can assist technology and software companies in promoting their referral programs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cruise Referral Programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crystal-referral-program.md) - [Referral Automation Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bootup-ai.md) - [In-App Reward Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inapp-rewards.md) - [Referral Retailer Payment Promotions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/refer-a-retailer-program.md) - [Generous Referral Programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/simplisafes-generous-referral-program.md) - [B2B Referral Marketplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frentro.md) - [Automated Savings Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cashback1.md) - [Referral Signup Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waitless.md) - [Value-Boosting Browser Extensions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/itv-kerching.md)
