{% endstep %}

#### Give the app permission to view customer data

After turning it on, you will need to grant the app permission to access customer data so it can properly retrieve and display the required customer information.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Select a position for the Customer Profile display

Next, you need to add the **Customer profile referral** **block** in the theme settings so advocates can see it after logging into their customer accounts on your Shopify store.

### How advocates check their referral activity

Now advocates can open your store website and log into their customer accounts using their advocate account email address.

From there, they can track their performance, including total referrals, total sales, order numbers and claim rewards such as:

* [Discount codes](https://docs.bixgrow.com/referral-program/set-up-rewards/discount-codes#how-advocates-claim-their-discount-codes)
* [Store credit](https://docs.bixgrow.com/referral-program/set-up-rewards/shopify-store-credit#how-advocates-view-their-available-store-credit-balance)
* [Free product](https://docs.bixgrow.com/referral-program/set-up-rewards/free-product#redeem-free-product-on-customer-profile-account)

### Edit translations

If your store supports multiple languages, you can select a language here and customize the text displayed in the **Customer Profile**. This allows advocates to view the referral information in their preferred language.
