How the Visible referral program works
Visible's Bring a Friend programme pays $20 a side in service credit. Referrer credits bank up to a maximum of 12 and draw down automatically, one per payment. On monthly plans the friend's $20 arrives as a discount on their second month of service, so the friend's reward exists only if they stay past the first.
What the program pays
What makes this program different
A credit bank with a drawdown rate. Referral credits accumulate to at most 12 and burn one per payment cycle, which means a prolific referrer prepays up to a year of service but can never extract more. The friend's side has its own retention twist: on monthly plans the $20 lands on the second month, so a friend who churns after one month collects nothing.
Why it works
A 12-credit ceiling with one-per-cycle drawdown bounds liability at roughly one subscriber-year of service.
Paying the friend on month two moves the reward past the churn cliff where trial customers leave.
Requiring the code at activation makes attribution unambiguous, with no retroactive claims to adjudicate.
Voiding banked credits on account lapse stops leavers cashing accumulated referrals on the way out.
What to copy
- Cap the stock of credits, not just the flow; a bank with a ceiling is a bounded liability.
- Land the friend's reward on the second billing cycle if early churn is what you are fighting.
- Collect the referral code at the moment of activation or not at all.
- Credits apply to service payments only, never taxes, fees, devices or insurance. Visible layers separate limited-time Bring a Friend offers on top of these standing terms, so promotional periods can differ from the figures here.
Visible referrals, answered
How much is a Visible referral worth?
$20 to each side. The referrer's next service payment drops by $20 per banked credit, and the friend gets $20 off their second month on monthly plans, or off the activation payment on annual plans.
How many Visible referral credits can you hold?
Twelve at any one time. Referrals made while your bank is full earn nothing, and credits draw down automatically at one per payment.
Why has a Visible referral credit disappeared?
The terms void banked credits if the account is terminated, suspended or allowed to lapse, and credits never apply to taxes, fees or device charges.
