Why we do this: we’re a small team and word of mouth is how most people find Bowerbird. If you help us reach new people, it’s only fair that your copy ends up free.

How it works

Post about Bowerbird. Share it on X or Reddit: a post, tweet, reply or comment all work. It has to be public and include a link to getbowerbird.app or the name “getbowerbird.app” written out.
Reach 2,000 views. Wait until that single post shows 2,000 views: impressions on X, or the view count Reddit shows you on your post.
Email us to claim. Send the details listed below to hello@getbowerbird.app. Once a person on our side has checked it, we refund 100% of what you paid.

What to include in your email

Send it to hello@getbowerbird.app with:

the link to your post,
a screenshot that shows the view count,
the email address you used when you bought Bowerbird,
your Dodo Payments order ID (it’s in your receipt email).

What counts

A public post, tweet, reply or comment on X or Reddit.
It links to getbowerbird.app or spells out “getbowerbird.app”. For replies and comments, just writing “Bowerbird” isn’t enough.
One post reaches 2,000 views on its own. Views from several posts, or from X and Reddit together, can’t be added up.

Rules

Organic views only. No bought views, bots, vote manipulation or paid promotion.
Play by the community’s rules. Follow each subreddit’s rules. Posts removed as spam or by moderators don’t qualify.
One cashback per purchase. The refund is the amount you actually paid, after any discount.
Paid purchases only. It covers licenses bought on getbowerbird.app through Dodo Payments. Free licenses aren’t eligible.
Reviewed by a person. We look at every claim by hand, and our decision is final.
You keep your license. Unlike a normal refund, your license key stays active after the cashback.

Not sure what to write?

Say it in your own words, that always reads best. If you’d like a starting point, this is fine to copy and change:

I’ve been using Bowerbird to find files on my Mac: shelves for everything, plain-English search and text search inside screenshots, all on-device. One-time purchase, no subscription. getbowerbird.app

Please only say things that are true for you. Honest posts do better anyway.

Just want a regular refund?

This program is separate from our normal refunds. If something isn’t working or you bought by mistake, see the refund policy.
