Referee FAQs
How does the Refer a Friend program work?
Best Egg will award a $150 gift card to you and the friend that referred you if the following conditions are met:
- You apply for a Best Egg Personal Loan using the referral link your friend sent to you.
- You’re approved for the loan, receive the funds, and make your first payment.
- You must be a new Best Egg Personal Loan customer. This offer won’t be valid if you have an open or closed loan account with us.
Here’s what you can expect:
The shared referral link will redirect you to a landing page where you can start an application. You must start the application from this page.
Will Best Egg tell my friend if I’m approved for my loan?
We won’t send an official message telling your friend whether you’ve applied or been approved for a loan. If you both receive gift cards however, your friend will know you were approved.
When will I get my gift card?
Once your loan has been approved, you’ve received the funds, and you’ve made your first payment, you’ll receive an email with a code and instructions for redeeming your gift card.
Why isn’t my link working?
If the link your friend sent you isn’t working, this means the offer has expired and is no longer available. You should receive the message below.
- Clicking ‘Learn more’ will send you to our personal loan page, where you can apply for available offers, without earning a Refer a Friend gift card.
- If you click ‘Go to Homepage’ it will send you to bestegg.com, where you can find out more about Best Egg and see all our available products.
