Frequently Asked Questions
What is TellYourFriend?
Each day, TellYourFriend features an unbeatable deal on the best stuff to do, see, eat, and buy in your community. By promising businesses a certain number of customers, we obtain deep discounts you won't find anywhere else.
Do I have to sign up a group of people I know to get the deal?
No - our millions of friends make up a big enough group. You'll probably want to invite people anyway, though — TellYourFriend Vouchers are fun to use with friends, relatives, and pets.
I like today's deal - how do I get it?
Just click "TAKE IT" before the offer ends. If the minimum number of people sign up, we'll charge your card and send you a link to print your Voucher. If not enough people join, no one gets it (and you won't be charged), so invite your friends to make sure you get the deal!
What happens if the TellYourFriend Deal doesn't reach its required minimum number of purchasers?
If not enough people sign up, then the deal is canceled, and you won't be charged. Better luck next time! So if you really want the Voucher, be sure to either beg or threaten your friends.
Do I need to use my Voucher the same day I buy it?
No. In fact, most Vouchers cannot begin to be used until after the deal has ended. If you are ever able to use it on the same day, it will be specified in the deal's Particulars.
I bought a Voucher - how do I use it?
Once you're charged, you'll receive an email with a link to sign in and print your Voucher. The Voucher has redemption instructions and a map right on it!
Can I buy a Voucher as a gift for someone else?
Yes. We communicate with all the businesses that we work with that TellYourFriend Vouchers can be gifted, and unless the Particulars specifically states otherwise, gift away! To have us send them the gift, select the gift option at checkout.
Wait, my name is on the Voucher. Are you sure I can use this as a gift?
Yes!
If I don't use the full value of the Voucher in one visit, can I use the remainder later?
No. Unless otherwise stated you do not receive store credit or cash back for whatever you don't use. Bring a friend - share a little!
Can I combine my Voucher with other offers or specials?
No... not unless the Voucher specifically states otherwise.
Am I billed as soon as I join a TellYourFriend?
No - you are only charged if the Voucher reaches the required minimum.
Is TellYourFriend safe?
Extremely. Your credit card number is transmitted by SSL directly to a secure electronic vault.
What happens if my Voucher expires?
All is not lost! Once a Voucher reaches its expiration date, it loses its promotional value, but you can still redeem it at the price you paid for the length of time stated by gift certificate laws in your state.
What if the business for my Voucher closes down?
If anything happens that makes it impossible for you to redeem your Voucher, we'll make sure you get your money back.
