Mitch Referrals – DBTech Credits Bridge
Turn referrals into real rewards
The Mitch Referrals – DBTech Credits Bridge seamlessly connects the Mitch Referrals add-on with DBTech Credits, allowing you to reward members automatically when they successfully refer new users to your community.
This bridge does one thing extremely well: it translates referral activity into DBTech-compatible credit events, giving admins full control over how, when, and how much users are rewarded.
What This Bridge Does
Once installed, the bridge listens for key referral events and passes them directly into DBTech Credits' powerful event system.
Supported Referral Events
Referral registration (conversion)
Referral milestones (e.g. 5, 10, 25, 50+ referrals)
- No duplicate rewards
- No accidental double payouts
- Full compatibility with DBTech's transaction logs and alerts
Designed for Flexibility (Not Lock-In)
This bridge does not hard-code rewards.
Instead, it lets DBTech Credits do what it does best:
- Choose which currency to award
- Set flat rewards or scaled rewards
- Apply per-user limits
- Control frequency, expiry, and moderation
- Combine rewards with other DBTech systems
🛠 How It Works (High-Level)
- Mitch Referrals detects a referral conversion or milestone
- The bridge fires a corresponding internal event
- DBTech Credits evaluates matching Events you've created
- Credits are awarded (or skipped) based on your settings
What This Bridge Includes
- ✔ Clean event listeners for referral conversions
- ✔ Clean event listeners for referral milestones
- ✔ Safe handling if DBTech Credits is disabled or missing
- ✔ Full error isolation (referrals never break if credits fail)
- ✔ Zero database schema changes
- ✔ Upgrade-safe and uninstall-safe design
Admin Setup (Important)
To use this bridge, admins must manually create DBTech Credit Events that match the referral triggers.
This is intentional and required for:
- Multi-currency setups
- Existing DBTech configurations
- Long-term upgrade safety
Example Use Cases
- Award 50 credits per successful referral
- Grant bonus credits at 5, 10, or 25 referrals
- Stack referral rewards with trophies or promotions
- Run limited-time referral campaigns
- Gamify growth without custom code
Requirements
- Mitch Referrals (latest version)
- DBTech Credits (active and configured)
Final Word
This bridge doesn't just "add rewards" — it unlocks an ecosystem.
If you already use DBTech Credits, this is the missing piece that turns referrals into a powerful, configurable growth engine for your community.
