Suede AI Referral Skills A referral program pays customers or it pays fraud. Design decides.
The incentive design decides who gets paid, so fraud controls and payout logic get built with the mechanics, not after the first abuse. Refer-a-friend loops, ambassador and partner incentives, affiliate structure, attribution, and the viral-loop math that says whether the channel compounds at all. It never executes a payout, never touches billing, and never reports a lift it cannot verify.
