Referly is a tech startup launched this May. The site allows everyday consumers to earn money from sharing products/services they like online.
The site works just like any other affiliate network but the difference is anyone can sign up in seconds with Facebook/Twitter and get started straight away, no approval needed. Members can earn money sharing products they like from sites like Amazon, Gamestop, ThinkGeek etc.. There is a lot of potential for the site, Referly – funded by Ycombinator is becoming somewhat of a social network that rewards consumers who promote to their Twitter/Facebook followers or perhaps their YouTube fans, or their bloggers.
The site lets anyone with a Paypal account cashout as long as they have earnt $10 and has been pitched as a fun and accessible way for the everyday consumer to earn a bit of extra cash.
Refer.ly is going to be one of the next biggest things on the web! We wanted to tell you now so you can get in before everyone else.
Free to use and you can sign up with your Twitter/Facebook.
Refer.ly was even featured on Techcrunch, was backed by Ycombinator and many more companies.
