The Landfolk referral program lets you turn a recommendation into a tangible reward. By registering with your email you receive a personal link to send to a homeowner who might be interested in listing their property. When that owner uses the personal link to apply and their listing is published on Landfolk within 30 days of the application, both the person who referred them and the new host are awarded a gift card for stays. This approach is built to attract genuine, well-cared-for vacation homes while rewarding the people who introduce them to the platform.
Participation is open to a wide audience: current hosts, satisfied guests, local service providers, or anyone who loves holiday homes can take part. You can make unlimited referrals and you will receive email updates when your invitee completes registration and when their listing goes live. There are limits on how the personal link can be distributed: sharing on private social profiles is allowed, but posting in groups, public blogs, affiliate sites or using the link as advertising material is not permitted. These boundaries help keep submissions relevant and protect the quality of entries.
How the referral process works
Getting the reward is a straightforward sequence of actions. First, you sign up with an email and obtain your personal link. Next, you share that link directly with a homeowner who might be a good fit. The homeowner must apply through that same link, and their application must be approved. Crucially, the host must publish the listing within 30 days of submitting the application for the referral to qualify. After publication, Landfolk verifies the listing and sends confirmation emails. Following verification, the platform issues the gift cards to both parties.
Five key steps to secure the reward
Think of the process as five clear milestones: 1) register your email and get the personal link; 2) share the link directly with an interested owner; 3) the owner applies using the link; 4) the listing must be approved and published within 30 days; 5) once verified, both referrer and new host receive the gift card notifications by email. Follow each milestone carefully to ensure the system recognizes your referral. Also note that reward values can change over time; if that happens, the amount in effect at the time of listing publication is the one applied.
Rewards, timing and important conditions
When a referred property is active inside the required timeframe, the referrer receives a 250 € gift card and the new host receives a 125 € gift card. These sums are designed to motivate both the person introducing new listings and the owners who decide to list. Landfolk applies the reward level that is current at the moment the listing is published, so you should be aware that promotional amounts can fluctuate. After publication and platform verification, recipients receive an email confirming approval and the gift card follows shortly after that notice.
Best practices for making successful referrals
To increase the chance that a homeowner’s application is accepted, have a friendly conversation first and explain the benefits of listing on Landfolk. Highlight attributes that the platform values, such as authenticity, a location integrated with nature, well-maintained interiors, and a host’s genuine enthusiasm for welcoming guests. Offer to help the owner complete the application and remind them of the 30 days publication deadline. These practical steps make it easier for owners to meet criteria and for your referral to qualify for rewards.
Dos and don’ts for sharing your link
Do share your personal link directly with owners and on your private social profiles; do explain how Landfolk showcases curated holiday homes and offers guides to support new hosts. Don’t post the link in public groups, blogs, affiliate sites, or use it as broad advertising material—this is explicitly prohibited. Keeping your outreach personal helps ensure that the people you invite are genuinely interested and more likely to follow through with a quality listing that meets Landfolk’s standards.
