What Prefinery is
Prefinery is referral marketing software for teams building growth through campaigns before or after launch. It supports viral waitlists, refer-a-friend campaigns, early access, and ongoing engagement. Each campaign signup gets a unique referral link; referrers may earn rewards when friends sign up or convert. Teams can tailor signup forms, referral experiences, language, and branding, then add a waitlist to a website or landing page with copy-and-paste installation. Tools include automated emails, invitation codes, analytics, user segmentation, CSV import and export, and fraud controls such as spam and bot blocking. Prefinery lists connections to more than 3,000 web apps, including Mailchimp, HubSpot CRM, Stripe, Zapier, Make, and webhooks. The Lite plan is $39 a month, billed every 6 months, with a 14-day trial; it includes one campaign and basic analytics. Essentials is $199 a month and Pro is $399 a month, each billed every 6 months. Additional users cost $0.005 per user per month beyond the included allowance.
