Connect GrowSurf to the Klaviyo list that receives your SMS audience

In GrowSurf, enter your Klaviyo API key, select the list you want synced, and save the connection so GrowSurf can start writing referral properties onto those Klaviyo profiles.

Confirm the connected list and let the profile properties sync

Before you draft the SMS campaign, make sure GrowSurf has already synced a participant profile you can use for previewing the message.

Insert the GrowSurf share link into your SMS copy

Klaviyo SMS supports profile personalization, so use {{ person|lookup:'GrowSurf Share URL' }} as the main link you want each participant to tap and share.

• Keep one clear referral CTA in the message so the next step is obvious.
• Use {{ person|lookup:'GrowSurf Total Referral Count' }} or {{ person|lookup:'GrowSurf Next Milestone' }} only when the extra context makes the SMS more compelling.

Send SMS to the referral segments where speed matters most

SMS works best for high-intent moments such as a first-share nudge, a reminder that a participant is close to a reward, or a quick prompt for an already engaged referrer.

Preview the message against a synced participant profile

Test the SMS with a profile that already synced from GrowSurf so you can confirm the share URL and any milestone or count fields render correctly before the campaign goes live.
