Book a Rental and Start Referring

How It Works

Three steps. No paperwork. No referral portal. No sign-up.

1. You tell a friend. Mention Inflated Expectations at the next birthday party, school field day, or summer cookout. Hand them the code REFER25. That is it. There is no link to share, no QR code to scan, no special URL to remember.
2. Your friend books with REFER25. They visit inflatedexpectationsny.com, pick a unit, pick a date, and enter REFER25 at checkout. The $25 comes off their order immediately. Their first bounce house drops from $250 to $225 on a weekend, or $225 to $200 on a weekday.
3. We credit your next rental. Within 24 hours of your friend's event going off (so we know the booking actually happened), $25 lands on your account. The next time you book with the email address tied to your past rental, the $25 comes off automatically. No code to enter, no checkout step to remember.

That is the entire program. No tiers, no badge system, no minimum spend, no expiration timer. We built it the way we wish referral programs worked when we were on the customer side of one.

Why We Built It This Way

Word of mouth is how we grow. So we paid for it directly.

Roughly 60% of our bookings come from someone who saw a friend's bounce house at a backyard party last year. That is the marketing channel that beats every paid ad we have ever run. The REFER25 code is how we say thank you in real dollars instead of branded keychain merchandise.

Most referral programs are designed to feel generous while paying out almost nothing. They require the referring customer to log into a portal, generate a unique URL, share it on a specific social network, wait 90 days for the credit to vest, and then watch the credit expire if it is not used within six months. By the time the friend books, the referrer has forgotten about the program and the credit silently lapses.

We pulled all of that out. The code is the same for everyone. The credit is automatic. The credit does not expire. The credit stacks. If you refer five friends over three summers, you have $125 sitting on your account ready to apply to your next booking. That is what a referral program is supposed to do.

The Math

What this actually saves a family across a typical summer.

There is no cap. If you bring us ten bookings, you have $250 in credit. We mean it.

Referral Program FAQ

The questions we get most often.

Share the code REFER25 with a friend. When your friend books their first bounce house with Inflated Expectations and enters REFER25 at checkout, they save $25 instantly. We then credit your account with $25, applied automatically to your next rental. Both sides save without a sign-up, a points balance, or a sales call.
No. You can refer as many friends as you want. Every friend who books with REFER25 earns you another $25 credit. Five friends equals $125 in credit on your account. The credits stack and can be combined on a single booking.
The credit posts within 24 hours after your friend's rental is delivered and confirmed. We do not credit at booking, because cancellations and reschedules happen. Once the unit is on the lawn, the credit lands.
No. Referral credits do not expire. They stay on your account until you book your next rental, whether that is two weeks from now or two summers from now.
Referral credits stack with each other but not with other promo codes on the same booking. If you have a $25 referral credit and a WELCOME20 code, the system will apply whichever is larger. Stacking applies between multiple referral credits only.
No. You can be a first-time customer and use REFER25 yourself if a friend gave you the code. The first booking saves $25. Once you have rented once, you become a potential referrer and the cycle keeps going.
Email us at [email protected] within 7 days of your friend's booking with both your email addresses and we will apply the credit manually. We would rather honor a forgotten code than have the program feel like a trick.
