WP Referral Code is a WordPress plugin that helps you generate a unique referral code for each of your users, enabling you to start your own version of referral marketing. Upon user registration, the plugin captures the refer code automatically. Additionally, WP Referral Code provides a user-friendly “copy refer link box” that allows users to easily copy and share their referral link.
