# Customize the referral portal

### What is a referral portal?

The referral portal is part of the refer-a-friend program. It is a customer-facing page that allows customers to access their referral link and track their progress.

Each customer has a unique referral portal URL, which displays their data only.

The referral portal is optional and needs to be enabled. [Read more](/knowledge-base/referral-programs/referral-portal-explained).

The Settings tab contains information on the general referral portal and other settings.
<img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/OHZjbiS4lFuaFFhM/images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/f12a2d90.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=OHZjbiS4lFuaFFhM&q=85&s=686f99d1e629244b2eac724f727405c3" alt="" width="2878" height="1560" data-path="images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/f12a2d90.webp" />It includes two sections: General and Custom. Let's review each below.

#### 1. General section

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/jXazpQTLifnP2r0J/images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/9d6883a7.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=jXazpQTLifnP2r0J&q=85&s=17ede25f4fb79899c3d9d129cb0c98f7" alt="" width="2876" height="1564" data-path="images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/9d6883a7.webp" />

The first section allows you to:

* Customize the portal appearance and layout [using Live Designer](/knowledge-base/program-management/live-designer-overview).
* [Edit portal SEO and tracking](/knowledge-base/partner-portal/customize-partner-portal-seo-and-tracking).
* [Connect a custom portal domain](/knowledge-base/referral-programs/connect-a-custom-referral-portal-domain).

**Default page** setting allows you to choose where you want your main referral portal link to lead to:

* program page,
* login page, or
* sign-up page.

**Fallback URL** is a backup link that customers will be redirected to when the traffic cannot reach the main page for some reason. <img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/jXazpQTLifnP2r0J/images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/52edcb97.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=jXazpQTLifnP2r0J&q=85&s=13c399a6f914ddd815d6b62ab259fa9c" alt="" width="2862" height="1566" data-path="images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/52edcb97.webp" />

Remember to click **Update** if you make any changes!

Next, you'll find **Branding**:

Here you can upload your logo, symbol, and favicon. Additionally, you can select your font family and primary brand color.

Next, you'll find  **Access & Authentication** settings and **Portal features**: <img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/jXazpQTLifnP2r0J/images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/55dbb616.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=jXazpQTLifnP2r0J&q=85&s=82747817e91347b5bb0f8f945d8850c8" alt="" width="2878" height="1562" data-path="images/articles/customize-the-referral-portal/55dbb616.webp" />

Here, you can:

* **Disable registrations via the Referral portal**
  When disabled, no one will be able to join your referral program through the portal.
* **Redirect signup to an external URL**
  If enabled, all signup links in the portal will redirect to the specified URL instead of the built-in registration form. Useful when creating partners manually or via API
* **Enable program introduction page**
  When enabled, the program introduction page will be accessible.
* **Enable in-site widget**
  When enabled, the portal can be accessed via an in-site widget on your site or app. [Read more](/knowledge-base/referral-programs/embed-an-in-site-referral-portal-widget).
* **Enable Partnero branding on the portal**
  When enabled, Partnero branding will be shown on the portal and you will automatically participate in our [Affiliate program](https://www.partnero.com/partnero-affiliate-program).
