[GrowSurf Tremendous setup guide](https://docs.growsurf.com/integrations/tremendous) [Tremendous rewards catalog](https://www.tremendous.com/catalog/) Tremendous fulfills GrowSurf referral rewards as gift cards. When a participant unlocks a connected reward, GrowSurf emails them a Tremendous reward and they choose what they want from hundreds of brands — you do not pick the brand for them. There is no Tremendous signup to do first and no API key to copy. You start the connection from the GrowSurf integrations list. Tremendous fulfills referral program rewards. For affiliate commission payouts, use [Wise](/integration-guides/wise-affiliate-commission-payouts/) or [PayPal](/integration-guides/paypal-affiliate-commission-payments/). ## Integration Steps ### Start the connection in GrowSurf Searching for Tremendous in the GrowSurf Program Editor integrations listSearch the integrations list in Program Editor > 4. Options > Integrations. Open the Tremendous card, select **Connect to Tremendous**, and choose the currency for the account: USD, EUR, or GBP. Fill in the company details Tremendous asks for and add a payment method — GrowSurf never sees your card — then come back and select **Refresh**. ### Wait for Tremendous to approve the account Tremendous reviews every new account before it can send anything, usually a business day or two. The card shows where the review stands. Set up your rewards while you wait. ### Turn it on for the program The Tremendous card in GrowSurf showing the team is connected and a Turn on for this program buttonOne Tremendous account covers the whole team. Later programs just turn it on. Connecting Tremendous creates one account for your GrowSurf team. Every program on the team shares that account and that balance, so the second program is a single **Turn on for this program** click — no second signup, no second funding. ### Connect a reward Select **Connect a Reward**, pick the reward Tremendous should fulfill, choose who gets the gift card, and set the amount and currency. The currency starts as your program’s currency. On a double-sided reward the referrer and the referred friend can each have a different amount and currency. Amounts can include cents where the currency supports them. If different referral outcomes should be worth different amounts, [dynamic rewards](https://support.growsurf.com/article/357-how-to-set-up-dynamic-rewards) let you vary the value by attributes of the referrer or the referred friend. ### Add funds Select **Add Funds** on the Tremendous card. That opens Tremendous, where you add money and manage payment methods. Gift cards and prepaid cards cost face value with no Tremendous fee. ### See what the winner sees The winner gets an email with the amount and a redemption button. A Tremendous reward email showing the amount and a Redeem buttonThe reward email comes from your company name, not from Tremendous. Opening it lands them on the Tremendous redemption page. The Tremendous product picker showing prepaid cards and gift card brandsThe winner picks the brand, or a prepaid Virtual Visa. There they choose a gift card or a prepaid Virtual Visa. Winners see the gift cards available in their own country, and Tremendous handles currency conversion when it is needed. ## Tips #### Set up rewards during the review wait Approval takes a business day or two, but reward configuration does not depend on it. Do that work first and the program is ready the moment the account clears. #### One reward, one fulfillment method You can run Tremendous and Tango Card on the same program, but not on the same reward — the winner would receive it twice. #### Gift cards count for tax reporting If Tax Forms and 1099 filing are enabled, the gift card amount goes into the winner’s yearly total and the reward is held until they have a W-9 or W-8 on file.

No. Select **Connect to Tremendous** in GrowSurf and you create the account as part of setup. #### Do I have to connect again for each program? No. Once your team is connected, other programs turn Tremendous on with one click and share the same balance. #### Can I choose which brand the winner gets? No, and that is the point. The winner picks from hundreds of brands or takes a prepaid Virtual Visa, which is why redemption rates hold up across countries. #### What happens if a winner never redeems? The reward stays available until it expires and the funds stay in your balance. The reward email shows the expiration date. ## Turn word of mouth into steady growth from your customers Launch a refer-a-friend or affiliate program that lowers your acquisition costs and builds customer loyalty, with little engineering work.
