If the app is any good it should sell through personal recommendation. Why add a "tacky" promotion that (to my mind) says "dump this app on two acquaintances and you get you money refunded" - message feels entirely negative to me.
- amichail 17y agoThe idea is that if you are the 1000th person to buy the app, then you get your money back if/when the 2000th person buys the app.
- kalendae 17y agoyou might want to rephrase the question then, cuz i thought the same thing other posters did. i think its interesting enough that it could boost the pr on your product or help create an early rush to put you in the top lists, but if i bought an app using that model i wouldn't really be motivated by that fact alone to recommend it to anyone. for me the usefulness and how much i like the app would still way out-trump any need to get my money back. if you are going with the idea tho, it might be better if there was a 'reward' aspect not just a refund. like 4x = u get paid 1x or something. refunds are frankly not too exciting especially for an iphone app.
