Introduction

The Referring Customers API allows you to manage referring customers on your Wix site.

With the Referring Customers API, you can:

• Generate a referring customer for a contact to create new referring customers.
• Retrieve a referring customer by ID to get customer details.
• Get a referring customer by referral code to find customers using their unique code.
• Query referring customers to search and filter referring customers.
• Delete a referring customer to remove referring customers from your program.

Before you begin

It's important to note the following points before starting to code:

• The Referring Customers API requires a Business or higher plan for Wix Editor, or a Plus or higher plan for Wix Studio.
• You must have at least one of these apps installed: Wix Stores, Wix Bookings, Wix Events, Wix Pricing Plans, or the new Wix Restaurants ordering app.
