Completed: When a friend uses the friend reward and makes his/her first purchase or when an advocate successfully refers his/her friend and earns the advocate reward, the status will be marked as ‘Completed’.
Pending: When a friend uses the referral link, visits the store, claims the friend reward, but doesn’t use the reward to place his/her order, the status will appear as ‘Pending’.
Fraud: When a friend used a particular email address ([email protected]) to claim the friend reward, but used the reward with a different email address ([email protected]) to purchase, the referral activity status will be marked as ‘Fraud’. When this happens, the advocate reward will not be generated and sent to the advocate.
NOTE: If an advocate used his/her advocate reward in a different email address, it will be marked as ‘Fraud’ too.
