No credit card0% of your rewards

Your users found
the bug.
Pay them to tell you.

Most people who hit a broken checkout just leave — quietly, forever. Friction Bounty puts a reward on every report so the bugs costing you customers land in your inbox, not your churn stats.

The expensive silence

Silent bugs are
your most
expensive bugs.

For every user who bothers to email support, a crowd of others just close the tab. You never see the broken flow — you only feel it later, in a churn number nobody can trace.

A reward flips that math. Suddenly the fastest, cheapest QA team you have is the people already standing on the bug — and they’re happy to point at it.

Without Friction Bounty

A churned customer

Gone silently. LTV lost. No idea why.

With Friction Bounty

A $20 credit

Fixed bug. Happy reporter. Customer who stayed.

Four moves. No engineering team required.

How it works

  1. 01

    Install

    Sign up, copy your script tag, paste before </body>. Badge is live — no redeploy to change color or copy.

  2. 02

    User reports

    They hit a bug, click the badge, describe it, optionally annotate a screenshot. No account needed.

  3. 03

    You review

    Inbox gets full context: URL, browser, OS, screenshot. Approve, decline as spam, or reply for more info.

  4. 04

    Auto reward

    Approve → Stripe credit or promo code on your account. Reporter gets email. Monthly budget keeps spend capped.

Ship-day integration

Install in
~30 seconds.

One script tag. No SDK, no npm package, no build step. React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, plain HTML, Shopify themes — same single line.

What’s in the box

Built for people who ship.

Production context

Every report includes URL, browser, OS, viewport, and an optional annotated screenshot. Reproduce in minutes.

Two-way conversation

Reply before you decide. Every message is logged on the submission and emailed out.

Spam control

Rate-limited per IP per org. You review before any money moves. Decline closes the loop.

Monthly budget cap

Hard spend ceiling. Live meter. Approvals that would blow past it are blocked automatically.

Your Stripe, your money

We never hold payout funds. Rewards land on your Stripe as credit or promo codes.

Configurable widget

Color, position, welcome message, default bounty. Match your brand without code.

You choose per approval

Two ways to pay a bounty

Both run on your Stripe. We never hold or touch payout funds.

Customer credit

Default

We add the bounty as a balance credit on the reporter’s Stripe customer. Next checkout with the same email — auto-deducted. Zero friction. Nothing to remember.

Best for subscriptions & repeat purchases

Promo code

We create a single-use Stripe promotion code and email it. They paste it at checkout. Expires in 30 days. Tangible and immediate.

Best for one-offs & first-time buyers

Same install. Two payback styles.

Who it’s for

SaaS & software

Ship faster. Churn less.

  • Drop one script into any web app
  • Screenshot + browser + OS + exact URL on every report
  • Reward with Stripe credit on their next invoice
  • Perfect when the reporter is already a customer

Straight answers

What does it cost?
Free to start — no credit card. You fund the bounties you approve, and we take 0% of them. See pricing.
Where does the reward money come from?
Your Stripe account. You connect a restricted key; on approval we issue the credit or promo code on your account. We never hold payout funds.
Does it actually work on Shopify?
Yes — the widget installs on any Shopify theme today, and you can reward with a Stripe promo code. Native gift-card payouts are in private beta.
Do reporters need to sign up?
No. They type the issue, optionally attach a screenshot, and submit. Email is only so you can reward and reply.
How do you stop people farming rewards?
Rate-limited per IP per org, and nothing pays automatically— you review every report. Spam gets declined in one click.
Can I control how much I spend?
Set a monthly budget. It’s a hard cap: a live meter tracks payouts, and approvals that would exceed it are blocked.
What do I add to my code?
One <script> tag. No SDK, no npm package, no build step.
