# Referrals

The **Referrals** tab allows you to view and manage referral relationships associated with a specific member. This section displays details of referees (people invited by the member into the program) and provides tools for adding, viewing, or removing referees.

### Referrals list

The main table displays all referees linked to the member. For each entry, you can see:

* **Referee name** – the name of the invited person.
* **Created on** – the date and time when the referral was recorded.

### Adding a referee

You can manually add a referee to the member’s account:

* Click **Add referee**.
* In the popup, select a referee from the dropdown list of existing members.

{% hint style="warning" %}
A referee cannot be linked if they are already assigned to another referrer.
{% endhint %}

* Click **Save** to confirm.

This action creates a referral relationship between the member (as referrer) and the selected referee.

***

### Managing referees

Each referee entry has a context menu with available actions:

* **Remove referee** – deletes the referral link between the member and the selected referee.
* **See full profile** – opens the full profile of the referee in a new view.

***

### Key notes

* Referrals are permanent unless manually removed.
* Referral rewards or campaign triggers tied to referrals are handled automatically by the system once the relationship is created.
* Manual management (adding or removing referees) should be used carefully to avoid inconsistencies in reporting or campaign logic.
