1. What is the Mortgage Habitat Refer A Friend programme?
1.1 Mortgage Habitat is running a Refer A Friend programme to give customers and employees (each a “Referrer”) the ability to receive a reward for recommending the service to their friends and family (each a “Referee”).

1.2 Referrers must be registered users or employees of Mortgage Habitat and registered users must have received an invitation email from Mortgage Habitat in order to participate in the programme.

1.3 A Referee is defined as the primary applicant on a mortgage application with Mortgage Habitat. In the case that there is more than 1 applicant on a mortgage application, the payment will be made to the primary applicant only and will not be paid to each individual applicant. The maximum that is paid per Referee is £100.

1.4 Your unique referral link will be provided to you in your invitation email. There is currently no other way for customers to sign up for the programme.

1.5 By participating in the programme you are agreeing to receive emails relating to specific referrals you have made.

2. What is the reward and how is it delivered?
2.1 If you are a customer or employee, you’ll be entitled to a £100 Amazon voucher for each successful referral through your unique referral link (the “Referral Fee”). This referral link must be used by the Referee when signing up for the Referrer to be eligible for the Refer a Friend programme.

2.2 A successful referral is defined as a referral that successfully completes a mortgage through Mortgage Habitat.

2.3 Referees that successfully complete a mortgage through your referral link will also be entitled to a £100 Amazon voucher. The rewards will be delivered to both parties through our cash rewards partner within 90 days of the successful referral. We will send you and your Referee an email upon qualifying for your rewards to let you know how to claim.

2.4 The Refer a Friend payment will be paid once to the Referee and Referrer per each Referee that the Referrer introduces to Mortgage Habitat through their link, no matter how many mortgage applications are completed.

2.5 There are no limits on the number of individual Referees you can make as a Referrer, and subject to prohibited uses listed in Section 3 (below), you will receive a £100 Amazon voucher for each successful individual referral.

2.6 Mortgage Habitat has the right to change the value and structure of these rewards at any time.
