Message Links Explained

Message links allow your customer advocates to share pre-formatted messages to various social media platforms. Each message contains your pre-written copy and can include your advocate’s unique share link. Message links can be included in:

  • Program widgets

  • Transactional emails

  • Your app or website, as an embedded link or button

  • External email campaigns

Adjust message link content
  1. In the left navigation menu, select Program Rules.

  2. Under Section 2, select Customize on the Social messaging card.

  3. If you're using a hosted Open Graph source, then update the title, description, and image that will be displayed to end users.

  4. In the Share Body text box, adjust the placeholder content for each message link. At a minimum, impact.com recommends replacing the content between the pipe characters [|]. To include customized content in the message link, you can use the variables:

    • {shareLink}

    • {referralCode}

    • {companyName}

  5. Save your changes.

Your message links can now be included in your referral program's widget and transactional emails, or embedded elsewhere on your website, app, or email campaigns.

Add message links to program touchpoints

The content editor allows you to add message links to your program widget and transactional emails with minimal additional setup—only your program ID is required. To insert message links elsewhere, you can embed a link that follows the format below.

https://app.referralsaasquatch.com/a/ 
{tenant_alias}/message/redirect/{share_medium}
?engagementMedium={engagement_medium}&accountId= 
{accountId}&userId={userId}&programId=
{program_ID}&rsLandingPage= {rsLandingPage}

Information contained in the curly brackets { } should be replaced with one of the supported parameter values.

Note: The accountId and userId values must be dynamically populated from your program data. Connect with your development team if you need help pulling in the data.
