Spread the Love
We love to spread the love – here’s how
Referrals
REFERRAL PROGRAM
How We Spread the Love
- We love you. You love them. We will love them too.
- For each person/business who purchases a custom map via your referral we will send you either a $100 gift card or a custom Spark Joy Box (created specifically for HipMaps referrals) as a token of our appreciation – you pick. Because you rock.
Fine print: we can give one referral gift per purchase so if you and your friend both refer someone to us you two need to duke it out to figure out who gets the thanks! Or better yet, just be sweet and split it.
