Referrals
Invite traders and earn a commission on every challenge they buy: the tiered rates, the pending-to-available hold, and how to get paid.
The Referrals page is where you share your link and track what you earn. You get a commission on every challenge a trader you referred buys, calculated on the amount they actually paid, in USDC. The trader you refer gets a discount on their first challenge.
Your rate is tiered and rises as more of the traders you refer buy. Commissions clear a short hold before they can be withdrawn, and you cash out through the same request-and-review flow as trader payouts.
Your link and code
The top of the page is Share & Earn: your rate and the referred trader's discount, a link and a code, and share buttons.
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Your code | The short code, for when a link does not fit. Copy puts it on your clipboard. |
| Your link | The link to share. It opens an invite page under your handle, and anyone who signs up from there is attributed to you. A visitor who follows it is remembered on that browser for 30 days, so they are still attributed to you if they leave and sign up later, with email or with Google. If they follow another trader's link after yours, the later link counts. Copy puts it on your clipboard. |
| X | Opens a post on X with a short invite and your link. |
| Discord | Copies your link so you can paste it into Discord. |
| The share button | In the panel's head. Opens the referrals share card: your earnings to date, the number of traders who signed up through your link, and your code, as an image to save or post. |
How commissions work
Your commission rate is set by how many distinct traders you have referred whose purchase has earned you a commission that cleared its hold.
| Tier | Paid referrals | Your commission |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | 0 - 15 | 10% |
| Tier 2 | 16 - 50 | 15% |
| Tier 3 | 51+ | 20% |
The rate then applies to every challenge those traders buy, on the amount they actually paid.
| Rule | Detail |
|---|---|
| What it is paid on | The referred trader's actual paid amount, after any discount, per purchase. |
| Which rate | Your tier rate at the time of the purchase. |
| Paid in | USDC. |
| Their discount | The trader you refer gets a one-time 10% off their first challenge, not later ones. |
You keep earning after their first challenge
The 10% discount is a one-time welcome for the trader you refer, on their first challenge. Your commission is not one-time: you earn your tier rate on every challenge they go on to buy.
Your earnings
The earnings hero separates what you can withdraw now from what is still clearing.
| Balance | What it means |
|---|---|
| Available to withdraw | Commission that has cleared its hold and can be withdrawn now. |
| Pending | Commission still inside its hold, not withdrawable yet. |
| Total earned | Lifetime commission earned. |
| Paid out | Lifetime commission already withdrawn. |
Why a commission is pending before it is available
A new commission is held for about 7 days before it becomes available, because a referred purchase can still be refunded. A refunded purchase reverses its commission. This is why your Pending and Available balances are shown separately.
Your tier and funnel
Two cards track your progress.
| Metric | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Commission Tier | Your current rate and Tier number, your paid referrals (counted the way your rate is, once their commission has cleared its hold), a bar toward the next tier, and how many more reach it. |
| Signups | Traders who signed up through your link. |
| Paid referrals | Referred traders who have opened an account. This count includes a free trial, so it can run ahead of the tier card's. |
| Conversion | Paid referrals as a share of signups. |
| Clicks | Link clicks. Click tracking is not built yet; the tile reads "tracking soon". |
History
The History card has two tabs.
| Tab | What it lists |
|---|---|
| Commissions | Each commission: the date, the referred trader (shown under a short pseudonym), the amount, and its status (pending, available, or reversed, which is struck through). |
| Payouts | Each referral payout you requested: the date, the amount, its status, and the on-chain transaction once it is sent. |
Getting paid
Referral commissions are withdrawn the same way as trader profit: you request a payout, it is reviewed, then sent in USDC. It is not an instant, automatic withdrawal.
| Term | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum payout | $50 available |
| Paid in | USDC |
| Flow | Request payout, then review, then payment to a whitelisted wallet |
| Wallet | You need a whitelisted payout wallet, and managing wallets needs 2FA or a passkey. A new wallet is locked for 48h before it can receive funds. |
| Identity check | Required once your lifetime unverified payouts cross $1,000 (shared with profit withdrawals, not a separate allowance) |
Under Request payout, a short note says what stands between you and a request: the amount still needed to reach the minimum, the room left before identity verification, or a wallet that is still locked.
The withdrawal itself uses the shared payout flow, wallets, and 2FA described on the Payouts page.
