Get paid to refer, keep your clients in one place, and actual directions to the venue

Most “refer a friend” programmes are a coupon wearing a nice hat. You send someone a link, they get 10% off, and you get a warm feeling plus an email you will archive. We wanted the version where actual money lands in your actual account. So that is the one we built.

Refer & Earn, paid in real cash

Bring another host onto Book A Sloth, and when they subscribe to a paid plan you earn a cash reward. Not credits. Not points you can only redeem against the thing you already pay for. The reward qualifies when they genuinely pay, holds through a short clearing window (so a refund on day two never leaves you owing us money), and then settles to you on its own ledger, kept separate from your booking earnings so your numbers stay clean.

There is a quick verification check before any payout leaves, which is the polite way of saying nobody gets to farm referrals into a stranger’s bank account.

A client list that remembers your regulars

You already knew who your repeat guests were. In your head, and in a WhatsApp thread you scroll for ten minutes to find. If you are on Studio, that memory now lives somewhere reliable: a proper Clients view, pulled together automatically from your bookings, with private notes and files you can attach to each person. Someone paid you in cash as a walk-in and never touched a payment gateway? Add them by hand, and they show up too.

Offline bookings finally get directions

If you take bookings at a real place, a studio, a clinic, a chair in a salon, you used to set your address once and then spend the rest of your life pasting it into chats. Now every offline booking carries a Google Maps link to your venue, threaded through the confirmation email, the calendar invite, the booking screen, and the WhatsApp message. Guest taps it, guest arrives, and you stop moonlighting as a human GPS.

A couple of smaller things landed alongside. The booking confirmation screen got restructured so the parts that matter (when, where, how much) sit where your eye actually lands, and phone numbers are now gated a little to keep deals from quietly walking off-platform. Running at bigger scale? There is a dedicated enterprise page now too, though that one is a conversation rather than a signup button.

If your account is verified, that referral reward is real money, and it is the rare kind that arrives whether or not you remembered it was coming. Set up your page, then go tell the one host friend who has been meaning to switch.
