Referral Program Launch and Safer Billing Workflows
Paid teams can now share referral codes, track reward progress, and rely on a smoother referral-aware signup and checkout flow.
Published 2026-03-30
What changed
This release introduces Prism referrals and strengthens the billing flow that supports them from signup through payout readiness.
Highlights included:
- a new Referrals settings page for eligible paid teams with shareable codes, share links, reward progress, and Stripe payout setup
- referral-code capture and validation across signup, email verification, and checkout so attribution survives delayed signup and login handoffs
- referral discounts at checkout for eligible new customers, including a discount worth roughly two weeks free on supported plans
- safer payout release and clawback handling behind the scenes, with review gates before referral cash rewards move
- clearer billing behavior when portal access is unavailable, plus additional pricing and billing UX polish
- updated referral terms and privacy acceptance before codes can be shared or payouts can be released
Why this matters
- Paid teams can now invite new customers directly from Prism and see how referral rewards are progressing.
- Referred signups are less likely to lose their code during verification or checkout.
- Billing and payout actions should behave more predictably when retries, disputes, or incomplete payout setup happen.
