JO F.Marketing Manager - Start Rescue ## Built for how Insurance providers operate Customer experience ### Custom-branded referral journeys for every channel and customer Whether you’re targeting consumers, businesses, or even your own employees, Buyapowa empowers Insurance providers to launch high-performing referral programs across every touchpoint — from customer referrals and employee advocacy to partner and B2B campaigns. Client experience ### One platform to manage, monitor, and optimise everything Every referral programme connects back to the Buyapowa platform — a secure, centralised hub where your teams can manage campaigns, track performance, prevent fraud, and reward advocates. Example User Experience ### From conversation to conversion: a referral journey in action See how insurance providers embed referrals into everyday interactions — from call centre chats to in-branch visits. In this example, a customer receives a referral code and shares it with a friend, who can redeem it however they choose: online, over the phone, or in-store. It’s a frictionless, trackable process designed for real-world sales channels. 1. Simple referral sharing Customers receive simple referral codes during calls or store visits, or via email, making sharing straightforward and hassle-free. 2. Friend redemption Friends easily redeem their referral by quoting codes online, over the phone, or at point-of-sale in-store, captured in brand systems or directly on the Buyapowa portal. 3. Seamless tracking All referrals are automatically matched between referrers and their friends through secure, integrated systems, ensuring accurate attribution. 4. Immediate rewards Verified transactions trigger immediate reward delivery to both referring and referred customers, reinforcing engagement. This is just one example of how leading brands use Buyapowa.

Through its Shared Value model, Vitality incentivizes customers to make healthier or safer choices — benefiting members, lowering risk, and creating broader social impact. In 2019 alone, members saved over £100m through the Vitality Healthy Living Programme. With high member satisfaction and a strong commitment to innovation, Vitality saw referral as a natural way to turn positive experiences into sustainable growth. ### Challenge Vitality needed a referral platform that could: - Integrate seamlessly into the Member Zone while staying fully on-brand - Automate reward reconciliation and fulfilment to reduce internal workload - Support diverse referral goals — from new policy sales to deeper programme engagement - Strengthen loyalty and advocacy across personal and corporate member segments ### Solution After a comprehensive market review, Buyapowa was selected for its flexible, end-to-end platform, tailored UX design, and collaborative working style. The platform was embedded directly into Vitality’s Member Zone, offering a smooth and intuitive referral journey. Vitality and Buyapowa partnered closely to evolve the program, using real-time analytics and feedback to enhance visibility and control for members and their referred friends. A key change — doubling the reward from £50 to £100 — helped further accelerate program uptake. ### Results - **Increased referral volumes** after reward uplift from £50 to £100 - **Extended the referral program** from Health and Life to corporate partners - Leveraged **Buyapowa’s Automated Reward Distribution** to power additional sales incentives - Built a referral engine that grows with the brand — fully aligned to its member-first values 98%EngagementAlmost every Vitality member visiting the program decided to sign up as a referrer. 97%Sharing RateThe vast majority of those who registered for the referral program went on to share their referral link. 2.5Successful sharesReferrers generated an average of 2.5 visits to Vitality’s website from their friends & family. 100% Member Growth On average, each existing Vitality referrer successfully generated a brand new member acquisition. 49%Conversion rateAlmost half of referred-in-friends completed their quote and became paying Vitality members. “Delivered” “We have always believed that Vitality has the power to generate immense advocacy from our loyal members. We needed a referral platform that could deliver on that promise and Buyapowa has done exactly that. Ross Dowson Director D2C Distribution ## How other brands use referral and reward programs **Binance** , the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange, offers greater referral rewards to high-value customers (those with larger rolling account balances) – who, of course, are likely to know and influence other high-value individuals. This approach also boosts LTV among Binance’s existing customer base as users strive either to maintain or to access the greatest rewards. The ‘financial super app’ **Revolut** is similarly bold with its refer-a-friend program, injecting a persuasive element of FOMO by offering bonus rewards for highly limited windows of time. Advocates might be able to earn 5x the usual introduction reward, but only by acting quickly and by being especially persuasive. Recently valued at $11bn, the fintech brand **Wise** (formerly TransferWise) is bullish with its referral program. While referred-in friends always receive a free or discounted first money transfer – ensuring social kudos for the referrer – rewards are only paid out to advocates once they achieve three or more successful introductions. This push from disruptive fintechs has led more traditional finance and insurance organizations – including brands such as **HSBC, Virgin Money, Discovery, The AA** and **BBVA** – to launch or retool their own refer-a-friend programs, making referral increasingly common, and increasingly important, within the sector. ## Referral insights for insurance providers [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/why-insurance-referral-programs-work/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/why-insurance-referral-programs-work/) BLOG ### [Debunking the myth that Referral Marketing doesn’t work for the Insurance sector](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/why-insurance-referral-programs-work/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/why-insurance-referral-programs-work/) [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/insurance-marketing-strategy/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/insurance-marketing-strategy/) BLOG ### [Marketing Strategy and Opportunities for Insurance Companies](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/insurance-marketing-strategy/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/insurance-marketing-strategy/) [https://academy.buyapowa.com/s/d/cyJO1ycBAKGshu7W](https://academy.buyapowa.com/s/d/cyJO1ycBAKGshu7W) CASE STUDY ### [UK Insurance Leader: Vitality](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/telecommunications-marketing-strategy/) [DOWNLOAD](https://academy.buyapowa.com/s/d/cQrXBhnMIcuiqZyK) ## Examples of referral programs [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/examples-of-insurance-referral-programs/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/examples-of-insurance-referral-programs/) BLOG ### [Examples of referral programs at leading insurance brands](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/examples-of-insurance-referral-programs/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/examples-of-insurance-referral-programs/) [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-marketing-north-american-insurers/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-marketing-north-american-insurers/) BLOG ### [Examples of Referral Marketing at North American Insurance Carriers](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-marketing-north-american-insurers/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-marketing-north-american-insurers/) [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-at-canadian-insurers/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-at-canadian-insurers/) BLOG ### [The Best Referral Programs at Leading Canadian Insurers](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-at-canadian-insurers/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-at-canadian-insurers/) [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-for-pet-insurers/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-for-pet-insurers/) BLOG ### [Referral Programs for Leading Global Pet Insurance Carriers](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-for-pet-insurers/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-for-pet-insurers/) [https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-in-health-and-life-insurers/](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-in-health-and-life-insurers/) BLOG ### [The Best Referral Programs at Leading Health & Life Insurance Carriers](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-in-health-and-life-insurers/) THOUGHT LEADERSHIP [READ MORE](https://www.buyapowa.com/blog/referral-programs-in-health-and-life-insurers/) ## Want to see what referral looks like for you?
