About

Referral codes shouldn't be a scavenger hunt.

GetReferral is a small, independently run company that connects Canadians to verified referral codes and sign-up bonuses from the banking, investing, and shopping apps they actually use. We check every offer by hand so you don't have to dig through forums to find a code that still works.

Why we started this

Every referral program is a little different — some bonuses expire, some codes get swapped out, and most companies bury the details in fine print. We built GetReferral to keep one clean, up-to-date list so you can compare offers and claim a bonus in a few minutes instead of an afternoon.

How we verify offers

Every listing on GetReferral goes through the same three-step check before — and after — it's published.

  1. We find the offer

    We track down each company's current referral or sign-up program directly from the source.

  2. We test the code

    Every referral link is tested by hand before it goes live — no scraped or expired codes.

  3. We recheck it often

    Bonus terms change without notice, so we revisit each listing on a regular schedule.

What we care about

Verified, not scraped

Every code on this site was tested by a real person, not pulled automatically from a feed.

Clear about incentives

If we earn something from a listing, we say so plainly on our disclosure page — no fine print.

Kept current

Expired or discontinued offers are pulled quickly instead of sitting stale for months.

How we make money

When you sign up through a link on GetReferral, we may receive a referral bonus of our own from the company — at no extra cost to you. This never affects which offers we list or how we describe them. See our affiliate disclosure for details.
