Referr operates a marketplace that connects Referrers (who submit Referrals) with Service Providers (who purchase them). Referr is not a party to any Referral or to any contract formed between a Referrer and a Service Provider. Referr does not itself generate, source, own, sell, verify the underlying subject matter of, or take title to any Referral. Referrers are independent third parties and are not employees, agents, partners or representatives of Referr. Referr acts solely as (i) the operator of the marketplace and (ii) the Referrer’s limited authorised payment collection agent, as set out in the Payment Terms.

The marketplace is provided for business purposes only. By registering, you confirm that you are acting wholly or mainly for purposes relating to your trade, business, craft or profession and not as a consumer. You acknowledge that consumer protection legislation, including the Consumer Rights Act 2015, does not apply to your use of the marketplace or to any Referral you purchase or sell.

Referr’s automated platform features — including matching, the Quality Score and the checks run on each submission — are described in Schedule 1 (Platform Features and How They Work) at the end of these Terms of Service. Schedule 1 forms part of these Terms of Service.

An option to upload additional Service Listings images are available to all Service Providers. Service Providers must deliver the same quality of service as shown on their Service Listings images. Recurring complaint that actual service quality not matching the quality shown on the Service Listings images may lead to the Service Provider’s account becoming permanently disabled.

Users who sell leads

You may not offer direct payments to Service Providers using payment systems outside of the Referr platform.

You may not offer Service Providers or any User to pay or make payment using any method other than through the Referr website platform (the Site). In case you have been asked to use an alternative payment method, please report it immediately to Customer Support by emailing hello@support.referr.co.uk or by clicking Help & Support from within your Referr account.

For security concerns, Referr may temporarily disable a Referrer’s ability to withdraw revenue to prevent fraudulent or illicit activity. This may come as a result of security issues, improper behaviour reported by other users, or associating multiple Referr accounts to a single withdrawal provider.

Each Referral you make and successfully complete, accredits your account with a revenue equal to 97% of the Referral Reward amount. In some cases, 100% of the amount may be accredited to your account, and a fee equal to 3% at a minimum of £3 GBP will be deducted on any monies withdrawn from your Referr account to your bank account.

Referr credits User who sell leads once a Referral is completed and, in most cases, this is 7 days after the completion of the Referral. See our Referrals section below for a definition of a completed Referral.

For more information about receiving payments, fees and taxes see the Payment Terms.

Referrers are solely responsible for validating that Lead Customers;

Are over the age of eighteen,

aware of the pending Referral and agree to their contact details being processed by Referr and shared with the Service Provider for the purpose of the Service Provider contacting them about the Service described within the Service Listing,

have a Legitimate Interest in the Service being provided by the Service Provider.

and comply with the Service Provider’s Referral Terms if applicable.

Referrals

Once a Referral has been submitted, a Referral will be created and given a unique reference number. Referrals are listed as a Referral within the My Referrals page of the Referrer’s account and as a Lead within the My Leads page of the Service Provider’s account.

A Referral is marked as Complete after it has been accepted by the Lead Customer and accepted and paid for by the Service Provider.

Once a Referral is Complete, the contact details

We encourage our Users to try and settle conflicts amongst themselves. If for any reason this fails, or if you encounter non-permitted usage on the Site, users can contact Referr’s Customer Support department for assistance by emailing hello@support.referr.co.uk or by clicking Help from within your Referr account. For more information about disputes, Referral cancellations and refunds please refer to the Payment Terms.

Handling Referrals

When a Referrer submits a Referral, the Service Provider is notified by email, SMS, as well as notifications on the Site, once the Referral has passed the automated checks described in Schedule 1 and the Referrer has warranted that the Lead Customer is aware of and consents to the Referral. Those checks are run on the information submitted; they do not confirm that the Lead Customer exists, consented, or has any interest in the Service Provider’s services.

Referrals are required to meet the Service Provider’s Referral Terms as set out on the Service Listing. Failing to do so will allow the Service Provider to cancel the Referral and seek a refund for the Referral.

Use of Referral information

Service Providers may contact Lead Customers using the details supplied, by any lawful means, in compliance with applicable law including UK GDPR and PECR. Service Providers must not use Referral information for any purpose other than pursuing the services for which the Referral was submitted, and must not resell, publish or transfer it.

Reviews

Functionality to enable Feedback reviews is coming to Referr.co.uk soon, and will be applied to individual User accounts on a test basis.

Feedback reviews provided by Users are an essential part of Referr’s rating system. Reviews demonstrate User’s overall experience with User who sell leads and Service Providers. Users are encouraged to communicate between each other about any concerns experienced during an active Referral.

Leaving feedback is a basic prerogative of a User. Feedback reviews will not be removed unless there are clear violations of our Terms of Service and/or our Community Standards.

To prevent any misuse of our Feedback system, all feedback reviews must come from legitimate Referral transactions executed exclusively through the Referr platform from users within our community. Transactions arranged, determined to artificially enhance User ratings, or to abuse the Referr platform with purchases from additional accounts, will result in a permanent suspension of all related accounts.

Feedback comments given by Users and Lead Customers are publicly displayed on a user’s profile page.

Users are allowed to leave reviews on Referrals up to 20 days after a Referral is marked as complete. No new reviews may be added to a Referral after 20 days. Lead Customers will be asked to leave a review 30 days after the Referral is marked as complete and will be able to leave a review for the next 60 days. Lead Customer reviews are therefore collected between 30 and 90 days after the Referral has been marked as complete.

Users may not solicit the removal of feedback reviews.

Disputes and Cancellations

We encourage our Users to try and settle conflicts amongst themselves. If for any reason this fails or if you encounter non-permitted usage on the Site, users can contact Referr’s Customer Support department for assistance. For more information about disputes, Referral cancellations and refunds please refer to the Payment Terms.

Users communicate and engage through messaging, Referrals, social media, and Referr’s Community Forums.

Referr maintains a friendly, community spirit, and professional environment. Users should keep to that spirit while participating in any activity or extensions of Referr. This section relates to the expected conduct users should adhere to while interacting with each other on Referr.

Referrals

Users with the intention to defame competing Service Providers by making Referrals to competing services will have their reviews removed and may result in the suspension/removal of your account.

Site Management

WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SITE AND THE MARKETPLACE OFFERINGS OR DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION.

If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and creating a new account under your name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third party, even if you may be acting on behalf of the third party. In addition to terminating or suspending your account, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including without limitation pursuing civil, criminal, and injunctive redress.


Investigations

Where Referr has reasonable grounds to suspect that a User has breached these Terms of Service or engaged in fraudulent, unlawful or deceptive conduct, Referr may (without that action constituting a finding, admission or determination of wrongdoing): (a) suspend or restrict the User’s account, listings and Referrals pending investigation; (b) withhold, suspend or reverse any payout, and freeze any User Balance, in whole or in part; (c) cancel affected Referrals and refund affected Service Providers; (d) require identity verification, including government-issued ID and proof of business or address, before permitting further activity or any withdrawal; (e) contact any Lead Customer or named business to verify a Referral; (f) retain records, including account, device, network and transaction data, for the investigation and any subsequent proceedings; and (g) disclose information to law enforcement, regulators, payment providers and affected Users where Referr reasonably considers it necessary to prevent, detect, investigate or report suspected fraud or other crime.


Modifications and Interruptions

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Site at any time or for any reason at our sole discretion without notice. However, we have no obligation to update any information on our Site. We also reserve the right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Marketplace Offerings without notice at any time. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Site or the Marketplace Offerings.

We cannot guarantee the Site and the Marketplace Offerings will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software, or other problems or need to perform maintenance related to the Site, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors. We reserve the right to change, revise, update, suspend, discontinue, or otherwise modify the Site or the Marketplace Offerings at any time or for any reason without notice to you. You agree that we have no liability whatsoever for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by your inability to access or use the Site or the Marketplace Offerings during any downtime or discontinuance of the Site or the Marketplace Offerings. Nothing in these Terms of Use will be construed to obligate us to maintain and support the Site or the Marketplace Offerings or to supply any corrections, updates, or releases in connection therewith.

Governing Law

These conditions are governed by and interpreted following the laws of England and Wales, and the use of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sales of Goods is expressly excluded. The marketplace is provided for business purposes only and consumer protection legislation does not apply to your use of it. Referr and yourself both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Dispute Resolution

If you have a concern about the marketplace, a Referral or another User, please contact our Customer Support team so that we can try to resolve it with you.

Lead Disputes

Where a Service Provider raises a concern about a Referral, Referr may open a Lead Dispute. Within the Money-Back Guarantee period (7 days from purchase) a Service Provider may request one; outside it, Referr may open one at its sole discretion, on a best-endeavours basis, for any Referral purchased within the preceding 90 days. No User has a right to require Referr to open one, or to require Referr to explain a decision not to.

Once opened: (a) both parties will be invited to set out their position and provide evidence; (b) each party has 7 days from being invited to respond; (c) if a party does not respond within that period, Referr will determine the dispute on the evidence available to it, which may include evidence gathered by Referr independently; (d) Referr will notify both parties of the outcome; and (e) Referr’s decision is final.

A Lead Dispute is a contractual process operated by Referr as marketplace operator. It is not arbitration, does not affect either party’s legal rights, and does not require either party to communicate directly with the other. Where a dispute is determined against a Referrer, amounts are recoverable under the Recovering Amounts Owed section of the Payment Terms.

Nothing in this section creates a right to a refund outside the Money-Back Guarantee period, or extends that period.

Time limit for claims

Any claim arising out of or in connection with a Referral or its purchase must be notified to Referr in writing within six (6) months of the date of purchase of that Referral. Referr shall have no liability in respect of any claim notified after that period.

Corrections

There may be information on the Site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions that may relate to the Marketplace Offerings, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or update the information on the Site at any time, without prior notice.

Disclaimer of Warranties

YOUR USE OF THE SITE, ITS CONTENT AND ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE WEBSITE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SITE, ITS CONTENT AND ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE WEBSITE ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. NEITHER REFERR NOR ANY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH REFERR MAKES ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPLETENESS, SECURITY, RELIABILITY, QUALITY, ACCURACY OR AVAILABILITY OF THE WEBSITE.

THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY WARRANTIES WHICH CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

No warranty as to Referrals

Referrals are submitted by Referrers, not by Referr. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Referr gives no warranty, representation or guarantee that any Referral: (a) relates to a real, identifiable or contactable person or business; (b) is accurate, complete or current; (c) has been submitted with the Lead Customer’s knowledge or consent; (d) represents a genuine interest in the Service Provider’s services; (e) will respond to contact, engage, convert into work, or generate any revenue; or (f) is suitable for the Service Provider’s purposes.

Service Providers acknowledge that purchasing a Referral is the purchase of contact information and stated interest submitted by a third party, and that commercial outcomes depend on factors outside Referr’s control. Service Providers are responsible for their own due diligence before and after purchase, including verifying the identity and legitimacy of any person or business they engage with.

Referr’s obligations in respect of invalid, inaccurate or fraudulent Referrals are limited to those expressly set out in the Money-Back Guarantee and dispute provisions of the Payment Terms, which are the sole and exclusive remedies available in respect of a Referral.

Limitation on Liability

(a) Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any liability which cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.

(b) Subject to (a), Referr shall not be liable, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, for any: loss of profit; loss of business, contracts or opportunity; loss of anticipated savings; loss of goodwill or reputation; wasted expenditure, management or staff time; or any indirect or consequential loss.

(c) Subject to (a), Referr’s total aggregate liability to any User arising out of or in connection with these Terms, the marketplace, or any Referral shall not exceed the greater of (i) the total Service Fees paid by that User to Referr in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, and (ii) £500.

(d) Referr is not liable for the acts, omissions, statements, conduct or content of any User, including the accuracy or legitimacy of any Referral, or for any loss arising from a User’s dealings with any Lead Customer or third party.

The term “Affiliate” referred to herein, is an entity that, directly or indirectly, controls, or is under the control of, or is under common control with Referr, where control means having more than fifty percent (50%) voting stock or other ownership interest or the majority of voting rights of such entity.


Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless, including our subsidiaries, affiliates, and all of our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) your Contributions; (2) use of the Marketplace Offerings; (3) breach of these Terms of Use; (4) any breach of your representations and warranties set forth in these Terms of Use; (5) your violation of the rights of a third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights; or (6) any overt harmful act toward any other user of the Site or the Marketplace Offerings with whom you connected via the Site. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate, at your expense, with our defence of such claims. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action, or proceeding which is subject to this indemnification upon becoming aware of it.


User Data

We will maintain certain data that you transmit to the Site for the purpose of managing the performance of the Marketplace Offerings, as well as data relating to your use of the Marketplace Offerings. Although we perform regular routine backups of data, you are solely responsible for all data that you transmit or that relates to any activity you have undertaken using the Marketplace Offerings. You agree that we shall have no liability to you for any loss or corruption of any such data, and you hereby waive any right of action against us arising from any such loss or corruption of such data.


Electronic Communications, Transactions, and Signatures

Visiting the Site, sending us emails, and completing online forms constitute electronic communications. You consent to receive electronic communications, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide to you electronically, via email and on the Site, satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing. YOU HEREBY AGREE TO THE USE OF ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES, CONTRACTS, ORDERS, AND OTHER RECORDS, AND TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF NOTICES, POLICIES, AND RECORDS OF TRANSACTIONS INITIATED OR COMPLETED BY US OR VIA THE SITE. You hereby waive any rights or requirements under any statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, or other laws in any jurisdiction which require an original signature or delivery or retention of non-electronic records, or to payments or the granting of credits by any means other than electronic means.


Miscellaneous

These Terms of Use and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Site or in respect to the Marketplace Offerings constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms of Use operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms of Use and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Terms of Use or use of the Marketplace Offerings. You agree that these Terms of Use will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them. You hereby waive any and all defences you may have based on the electronic form of these Terms of Use and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute these Terms of Use.



Schedule 1 — Platform Features and How They Work

This Schedule describes how Referr’s automated platform features operate. It is the definitive description of those features. Descriptions elsewhere on the Referr website or in marketing materials are summaries only.

1. Matching

Service Providers publish Lead Requests specifying category, location, price and requirements. When a Referrer submits a Referral, Referr’s matching process compares the category selected by the Referrer, the price, and the compatibility of the Referral with the criteria of open Lead Requests, and surfaces the Referral to matching requests. Referrals are surfaced only to Lead Requests that are active and belong to verified buyer accounts. Matching is an automated process based on the attributes supplied by each party. It does not assess, verify or endorse the merits, legitimacy, accuracy or likely outcome of any Referral or Lead Request, and it does not guarantee that any Referral will be matched, purchased, responded to or converted.

2. Quality Score

Each Referral displays a Quality Score between 0 and 100. The score is generated by automated checks run on every submission, which include: whether the required contact fields (first name, last name, email address, telephone number and company) are present and correctly formed; whether those details are internally consistent (for example whether the email domain matches the stated company name, or the lead’s name appears in the email address); whether the telephone number is valid for the country given; whether the email address uses a disposable or temporary email domain; whether the Referral duplicates an existing record; and screening of submitted content for profanity.

These checks are performed on the information submitted. They do not involve contacting the Lead Customer, and they do not confirm that the person or business exists, that the contact details are in service, that the Lead Customer consented to the Referral, that they have any interest in the Service Provider’s services, or that the Referral is genuine. The Quality Score is therefore an indicator of data quality and completeness. It is not a verification of the Referral and is not a guarantee of any kind, and must not be relied on as one.

3. Limits of automated checks

The checks described above operate on the data as submitted. Referr does not contact Lead Customers to confirm a Referral before it is sold, does not verify the existence or trading status of any business named in a Referral, and does not confirm that a telephone number or email address is in active use by the person named. Referrers warrant the genuineness of each Referral (paragraph 8); Referr relies on those warranties.

4. Buyer verification

Lead Requests are published only by verified buyer accounts. A buyer account is verified where the account holder has confirmed their email address, completed account onboarding, and registered a valid payment method with Referr’s Payment Processor Provider. Verification of a buyer account confirms those things only. It is not a check of the Service Provider’s identity, trading status, competence or conduct, and is not an endorsement of them. Referrals are matched only to active Lead Requests belonging to verified buyer accounts.

5. Boosting

Boosting increases the prominence of a Lead Request within the platform. Referr does not guarantee any particular number of views, Referrals, purchases or outcomes from a boosted Lead Request.

6. Lead Request types

Pay per Lead: the Service Provider pays at the point they choose to purchase a Referral. Pay on Completion: the Service Provider commits to a Referral and pays on the terms specified for that request type. Availability of each type may vary, and the pool of Referrers active on each type may differ.

7. Notifications and prompts

Referr sends automated notifications and reminders to Users, including where a Referral has not been actioned within a period set by Referr (currently 72 hours). These are prompts only and place no obligation on any User.

8. Referrer warranties

Referrers warrant on each submission that the Lead Customer is aged 18 or over, is aware of the Referral, consents to their contact details being shared, and has a genuine interest in the services concerned. Referr relies on those warranties. Referr does not independently verify them.

9. Changes to features

Referr may add, change, suspend or withdraw any feature at any time. Where a change materially alters how a feature described in this Schedule operates, Referr will update this Schedule.

10. No guarantee of outcome

No feature described in this Schedule constitutes a verification, endorsement or guarantee of any Referral, Referrer or Service Provider, or of any commercial outcome. The "No warranty as to Referrals" clause applies to all Referrals.
