You know all those cool, digital services that you’re using to order takeout, try new clothes and get snacks in bulk? Chances are many of those same services will pay YOU to introduce your friends and family and will hook them up, too! I found 25 different companies that offer these referral bonuses which range from a few dollars of credit to a $250 gift card!
Where applicable, I have provided my personal referral link so you can get the free stuff or discounts that these brands are offering (and I’ll get a treat too – thanks!!). Once you order, you can share the love and get free stuff for yourself. Here’s how to get free stuff for referring friends:

23andMe
My daughter and I learned many interesting things about our lineage with this kit. If you’re a fan like we are, you can spread the word to family and friends by email, Twitter and more. They’ll get up to 10% off their order and you’ll receive an Amazon gift card valued at up to $20.
Airbnb
Sending a referral link to a friend gets them some credit towards their first stay. When they complete that reservation, you’ll earn up to $30 in credit that you can use towards your next stay.
Boxed.com
I love this online wholesale club because there are no membership fees, and you get wholesale-priced household essentials and foods delivered to your door with no shipping (usually).

This online bra and underwear shop sells dozens of brands in countless sizes and in any style you can dream of. When you introduce the site to friends, they receive $10 off their first order and you receive a $10 credit. In case you were wondering, my referral code is 2Ccbtq6 ☺

Grove Collaborative has lots of skin-healthy and environmentally-friendly things like laundry detergent, reusable kitchen cloth, and bamboo toilet paper. The products are from their proprietary brand or from brands like Seventh Generation & Mrs. Meyers. Refer a friend and receive a $10 and your friend will receive a free set of home products.

This site and app, which allows you to order takeout from over 100,000 restaurants in 2,000 US cities, will give you $12 for every friend you refer when they place a first-time order of $15 or more. Your friends also receive $12 off their order.
Healthworks
This women-only fitness center offers $100 in Club Cash for when you refer a friend who joins the club. Club Cash can be used for membership fees, products and services.
Hello Fresh

Hello Fresh also has an offer right now where first-time customers receive $80 off ($20 off four orders), so it’s a great time to check it out if you haven’t already.
Lyft
When friends who are first-time customers use your referral code, they will receive up to $5 in ride credit and you will receive $10. Feel free to use my code, TRAE512245! ☺
Naked Wines
A friend referred me to this wine retailer that specializes in small-batch wine producers. I’ve been hooked ever since. When you refer a friend, they will receive a $50 credit, plus access to “Angel Pricing”, which is membership pricing. When they place their order, you’ll receive $40 to spend on wine. Your friends can receive membership pricing after their first order by paying $40 per month, which is deducted from their future orders.
What I usually do is order a case, and then wait a couple of months so I have an $80 or $120 balance in my account, which makes a huge dent in my order. The wines are tasty and reasonably-priced and I love that we always have wine on hand!
