# 'Quick Add' Referral

The 'Quick Add' Referral feature is a way for current subscribers to directly add referrals through the ReferralHero Widget. Depending on your settings, these new subscribers can be directly added or given the option to opt-in to your ReferralHero campaign. This feature gives you the ability to grow your subscriber list faster and follow up with these new subscribers in various ways.

Here are a few examples of why you might want to use this feature:

1. **Generating Leads Fast** 

   You incentivize customers to provide leads and relevant contact information so you can do the follow-up. 

   ie. You're a SAAS business. A current customer refers or ‘Quick Adds’ a lead and your sales team can directly follow up, instead of hoping the lead contacts you.
2. **Mass Brand Exposure** 

   You have customers who are willing to immediately provide friends' contact information in exchange for a reward. 

   ie. You're an e-commerce business. You ask current customers to refer or ‘Quick Add’ 5 friends by providing their contact info and you can send a branded email asking them to opt-in and join your newsletter, follow on social, etc.
3. **Offline Service/Product** 

   You have customers who want to refer people but asking them to "share a link" is not ideal for one reason or another. Instead, they can directly submit leads and get credit for the referral(s).

   ie. You're a plumbing company and incentivize customers to refer neighbors. The customer recommends your plumbing service in a conversation with a friend and later submits or ‘Quick Adds’ their information. 
4. **Team Events** 

   You host team events and one of the participants can directly add other members and get credit for the referral(s). 

   ie. You're a website that organizes team events (relay races, group fundraisers, etc.). The team leader can invite or ‘Quick Add’ other team members and get a reward for each person who joins.

These are only a few of the many use cases for this feature. Please let us know by emailing <support@referralhero.com> if you are using this feature in a different way!

**NOTE:**

By default, “Quick Add” referrals are added immediately to your campaign.

If you also enable the **'Quick Add' Invitation Email**, the lead will be invited to opt in before being added.

Otherwise, “Quick Add” referrals will follow your existing campaign rules (such as [Manual Review](https://support.referralhero.com/campaign-management/subscribers/subscriber-profile/manual-review) or [Automation Emails](https://support.referralhero.com/campaign-builder/automations)).
