The Vivint Customer Referral Program allows you to refer friends, family members, neighbors, coworkers, or random acquaintances you meet at the dentist's office to Vivint. If they have a system installed, we’ll take $30 off their activation fee and send you a check for $30. And the best part is that there's no limit on the number of rewards you can receive. We will compensate you for each and every referral that has a system installed.
Many insurance companies will give you a discount just for having a security and home automation system installed. However, they often require a certificate proving the installation has taken place. You may download one on the Vivint account center. Simply log in and choose "resources" and "insurance certificate." You can also call us with your insurance company's name and fax number, as well as your agent's name. We will fax it to your company directly.

To get your referral credit, call us at 866.493.5929. Calling us directly allows us to track your referrals, ensuring you are rewarded when a system is installed.

If your friends and family would prefer to contact us on their own, they need to give us your name specifically so you receive the credit.
You are responsible for obtaining a permit. The easiest way to get one is to search your local government website. Almost all cities make these forms available online. However, as a courtesy, you can call customer support and we will mail your form to you. If we send you the form, it will take between 7 and 10 working days.
Log in to the Vivint account center, choose “Resources,” then choose “Insurance Certificate.” A customized certificate can be downloaded and printed from there.

We're sorry to hear you're considering canceling, and we strongly urge you to continue your agreement with us, since we are dedicated to helping protect your family. However, we do offer additional options if that is not possible. First, you can find someone to take over your agreement, at no charge. As an added convenience, we will contact your referral to help you through this process. If your referral signs up for the remainder of your agreement, your responsibility will end once your written and signed request for cancellation has been processed. The second option is to pay off the total amount for the remainder of the months left on your agreement.
