It was an unpleasant surprise to find that even though I allowed points2shop (app) to access my Facebook in the referrals page in hopes to get more referrals, that when it posts anything on Facebook it doesn't count as a referral from you. And it also post on your Facebook multiple times (spam).
To get it to stop posting: go to account settings, then apps, then edit, then remove allow to post on Facebook as me. That is the only thing you need to remove you can keep everything else including the rest of that app.


Request make it also work as refs or tell me that I was wrong.

p2s doesn't spam facebook - it posts updates to your news feed from the app's "fan" page. This is NOT because you "enabled" facebook link in the referral page, but because you clicked "like" on the facebook page itself.

These posts are ONLY viewable to members walls. If you wish to post to facebook for refs, you need to do so with your ref link to your friends, or via the "promote to social media" option on your orders page. The facebook application doesn't post to your profile OR your friend's walls so there's not really much use unsubscribing, unless you're not wanting to see the updates from the site ;)
