My first experience was a bit bumpy – I had an issue with referral emails and discount codes that didn't resolve itself right away. But here's the thing: the team really stepped up. They took the problem seriously, dug into it properly, and ultimately got it fixed cleanly. Yes, it took longer than I'd hoped – but they made up for it by gifting me a free month, which I thought was a fair move. The...

Using the app as a pre-launch campaign tool and so far the support has been great. Very responsive. looking forward to seeing future features.

UPDATE: After a while we were able to get things sorted out. Never knew why it wouldnt work in the first place, but they always responded my emails and offered exceptional support.

I ran my first campaign with Viral Loops and gathered 4,000 Messenger subscribers, 1,050 Instagram followers and a few thousand in sales! I used their Messenger giveaway campaign template. I'm also launching an Ambassador program in the next few weeks with them. Loved their support and marketing advice on how to make my campaign successful. The only thing I missed was integration with Klaviyo, b...

Viral Loops helped us gathered 35,000 leads in 20 days with a Messenger Referral Template. Their integration with Manychat is a game-changer. They also wrote a case study about us: viral-loops.com/blog/35k-leads-with-messenger-referral-campaign/ What they can improve: We'd like to see more campaign templates and automated reward options for free products. Also, their customer success manager wa...

The Viral Loops app has completely changed our digital marketing game - and has been incredibly useful. We've run one campaign so far and already tripled our email list! In addition, Savvas & George were there personally helping me on chat whenever I had some issues or code to tweak. I would highly recommend installing Viral Loops to your Shopify store, you will be amazed by the app itself and how...

Wow this app actually works! Unlike the other apps of this kind this is very easy to use. I just followed the guide and everything else is automatic. It creates unique coupons and links for every single user without bugs. I have it 2 days and my sales increased 15%. Thanks i hope it will continue to work this way

— Smartfits

When i firstly added the app i was thinking about the way it will actually work. But it exceeded my expectations. It works brilliantly! When someone fill out the form, the app automatically creates a unique coupon for the user and a unique link so he can refer to his friends to get the credit of the sales! And when the user successfully completes the goals he gets rewarded with other coupons! It a...

This app does not work

— Common Goods

I recently had the unfortunate experience of working with Viral Loops, and I must say it has been nothing short of a nightmare. From the beginning, scheduling a meeting with them proved to be a daunting task due to significant time zone differences. However, the real issues began once we finally connected. During the sales pitch, we were enticed by the promises of a seamless referral program, but...

— LOVE ALY'S - Skincare for the Soul

Beware - They are the least responsive app merchant that I've ever dealt with. Subscribed to one of their paid plans. Ran into technical issues. Reached out via chat, but they were never available. No idea what time zone they are in, but I literally stayed up till 2am PST hoping to catch them live via chat. The chat was sent to them via email. They sporadically responded via email causing delay to...

— Cheferbly

The majority of the 10+ months I've been paying for the subscription I was trying to set it up. It took 162 emails back and forth to get this set up on my page, even with a web developer. It was the messiest installation I've ever seen with clueless customer service. They constantly send you links to articles they've written (to help their SEO, not their customer) even when you've read these artic...

— Anária

You guys are hard nuts huh? So, finally you're successful in pocketing $49, which we paid for just installing your app and doing anything at all (not your fault though!). Nevermind, but you've lost a customer and gained a detractor for life. Cheers to that!
