Refy – Growing Businesses Through Word of Mouth

August 24, 2025 (2mo ago)

🌟 Introduction

Word of mouth is the oldest and most effective marketing strategy. But most businesses lack tools to track and reward referrals.

That’s why I built Refy — a SaaS platform that helps businesses launch and manage referral programs with ease.


🌱 The Spark of an Idea

While working with businesses, I noticed they often said:

“Most of our customers come through referrals, but we don’t know how to track them.”

That was the problem to solve.


🚀 Building Refy

Refy was designed as a referral-first SaaS with these goals:

const stack = {
  core: ["Next.js", "TypeScript", "MongoDB", "Stripe"],
  frontend: ["Shadcn UI", "Tailwind CSS"],
  backend: ["Node.js", "Express.js"],
  infra: ["Vercel"],
};
