# Referral Program

Grow the Hashly community and **earn passive XP** through the referral system.

***

## ⚙️ How It Works

1. 🔑 **Find your referral code**: your account gets an 8-character code the first time you sign in. You'll find it in the **Referrals** section of your [profile](https://hash-ly.com/profile), with a button to copy it.
2. 📤 **Share it**: send your code to friends or post it in community channels.
3. ✅ **They enter it**: on their own profile, under **Enter a Referral Code**, they type your code and click **Apply**.
4. 🎁 **They get 50 XP** straight away.
5. 💰 **You earn a commission**: **2%** of the XP they earn from then on.

## 📊 Commission Details

| Detail                        | Value                                                                                                               |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 💵 **Rate**                   | 2% of the XP your referral earns, rounded down                                                                      |
| 🎯 **What counts**            | Missions, approved events and ecosystem projects, and login streak bonuses                                          |
| 🚫 **What doesn't**           | Attendance badges, the Dragon Boost part of a reward, referral XP, and the Premium signup bonus                     |
| ✨ **Impact on your referral** | None: they keep 100% of their reward, and your 2% is extra                                                          |
| 🏆 **Where it shows**         | In the **Refs** column of the [leaderboard](/hashly-docs/rewards/leaderboard-seasons.md), as part of your season XP |

> **📌 Example:** Your referral earns **Badge Collector** (1,000 XP) and has 20 dragons. They receive 1,500 XP with their Dragon Boost, and you receive `2% × 1,000 = 20 XP`.

> ⚠️ **Rounding:** Because the commission is rounded down, rewards under 50 XP (such as Daily Check-in, Cast a Vote or the Daily Premium Bonus) don't generate any commission.

## 🔒 Changing Your Referrer

* ⏳ After you enter a code, it's **locked for 60 days**. Your profile shows how many days are left.
* 🔄 After 60 days, entering a new code replaces your referrer. Your previous referrer keeps what they already earned.
* 🙅 You can't use your own code.

***

## 🎯 Referral Missions

| Mission           | Requirement                           | XP  |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------- | --- |
| 👤 **Recruiter**  | 1 person enters your code this season | 100 |
| 👥 **Ambassador** | 3 people enter your code this season  | 500 |

> 📅 These are **season missions**: they count the people who entered your code during the current season, and each one pays once per season.

***

## 👀 Track Your Referrals

The **Referrals** section of your profile shows:

* ⚡ Your total referral points.
* 👥 **Your Referees**: each person who used your code, their points, and the XP they've generated for you this season.
* 🎁 **Referred by**: who referred you, if anyone.

***

## 💡 Strategy

* 📢 **Share your code** in Hedera community channels.
* 🎯 **Refer active users**: the commission comes from larger rewards, so people who complete season missions, submit events or attend meetups generate the most.
* 📅 **Refer early in the season**: Recruiter and Ambassador only count people who join during the current season.

***

> ⚖️ **Please note:** XP and referral points have no monetary value outside Hashly and can't be sold, transferred or exchanged for money or crypto. See the [Terms of Use](https://hash-ly.com/terms).
