It runs refer-a-friend campaigns, identifies customers who already recommend the brand, and passes referral data to email and paid-media tools. Pricing is set per customer and is not published.
To get you started, here are 7 things to know about Mention Me, taken from its own pages and our grades.

Who Mention Me is for
- Fits if you're a consumer brand in ecommerce or finance that wants referrals
- Makes sense if you like paying per referral and will fill in a form for a quote
Who it is not for

- Tight if you want a free trial: none is listed
Good to know

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Mention Me you would be making email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 45 of the 89 other affiliate and referral tools grade higher.
What you could not
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- It plugs into other products, Klaviyo, Emarsys and Attentive among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Mention Me’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
