# Clicki's Comparison of Referral Software for Home Service Businesses

Home service referrals often start offline: in conversations, on the phone, or on the job site. This page sets out Clicki's opinion of how five referral platforms — including Clicki's own — fit that pattern, with the sourcing and limitations stated up front.

## Editorial methodology

-   **Who publishes this:** Clicki, Inc.. Clicki is ranked on this page and competes with every other product listed.
-   **Which products are included:** referral platforms Clicki considers relevant to home service businesses. The list is selected by Clicki and is not exhaustive.
-   **When each product was researched:** each vendor's public website was last accessed on 2026-08-19.
-   **Testing:** Clicki has not independently benchmarked or lab-tested the competing products. Claims about Clicki's own product are the publisher's own claims.
-   **Scoring:** ordering reflects Clicki's opinion of fit for home service businesses, weighing CRM connection, offline referral handling, payout automation, and revenue attribution. There is no numeric score and no third-party audit.
-   **Sources:** the linked vendor websites. Where public materials do not confirm a capability, this page says “Not confirmed from public materials” rather than stating the capability is missing.
-   **Vendor corrections:** any vendor may request a factual correction through the [Corrections & Responses](/corrections) page. Vendors were not individually contacted before publication.

## What Clicki suggests evaluating

1.  ### 1\. CRM connection
    
    Whether the tool can read job completion, customer data, and revenue events from the system you already use.
    
2.  ### 2\. Offline referrals
    
    How in-person, phone, and word-of-mouth referrals get attributed.
    
3.  ### 3\. Payout handling
    
    Whether rewards are issued automatically or tracked by hand.
    
4.  ### 4\. Revenue attribution
    
    Whether reporting ties referrals to booked jobs rather than clicks alone.
