About ReferralPlug

ReferralPlug helps you find genuine, easy-to-understand referral codes for trusted UK brands – so you can claim rewards with confidence and avoid confusing small print.

Our mission: clear, trustworthy referral guides

Referral schemes can be a great way to save money - from energy bill credits with providers like Octopus Energy and E.ON Next, to cash bonuses and gift cards from banks, investing apps and digital services. But the details are often buried in terms and conditions, and it's not always obvious whether an offer is right for you.

Our goal is to make referral offers simple, transparent and easy to compare. Each guide explains how the referral code works, what you get, and any key eligibility rules in plain English.

How we choose and review offers

We focus on well-known, reputable UK brands across energy, finance, fintech, mobile networks and online services. Before adding a referral to ReferralPlug, we:

  • Check that the referral scheme is currently active.
  • Confirm the reward amount and how it's paid (bill credit, cash bonus, points or gift card).
  • Read the official terms to highlight important conditions like minimum spend, contract length or switching requirements.
  • Add a short review and summary so you can quickly decide if the product or service is a good fit.

We regularly review and update our content so that referral rewards, bonuses and example calculations stay accurate.

How ReferralPlug makes money

Some links on ReferralPlug may be affiliate or referral links. This means we may earn a commission, bonus or reward when you sign up using one of our referral codes or links.

This never changes the reward you receive - in many cases you get exactly the same bonus as you would via the brand's own "refer a friend" scheme. We aim to only feature offers that provide fair value and are likely to be useful for people comparing options.

Editorial standards

We want ReferralPlug to feel like a helpful, independent guide, not just a list of links. That's why we:

  • Write short, honest reviews that cover both benefits and potential drawbacks.
  • Clearly explain how and when rewards are paid.
  • Avoid hypey or misleading language - we want you to feel informed, not pressured.
  • Update or remove guides if referral schemes change or become less competitive.

Who ReferralPlug is for

ReferralPlug is designed for people in the UK who want to make the most of referral codes without spending hours researching each offer. You might be:

  • Switching energy suppliers and comparing Octopus Energy or E.ON Next referral rewards.
  • Opening a new bank account or fintech card with a sign-up bonus.
  • Trying a new investing app, mobile network or digital service that offers a refer-a-friend scheme.

If that sounds like you, start by browsing our latest referral codes and guides.
