How Referrals Work¶
Invite friends to DustSwap and you both win: each successful referral pays 500 PP to both sides, and you earn a 20% lifetime commission on everything your invitees earn.
The basics¶
- Get your link. Your Profile shows your personal referral code and share link (
app.dustswap.wtf/ref/yourcode). - Share it. When someone opens your link, your code is ready to apply when they join.
- They apply the code. Anyone who has never had a referrer can apply a code — once, permanently.
- You both earn:
| Reward | Who gets it | When |
|---|---|---|
| 500 PP signup bonus | Both — referrer and the new user | When the code is applied |
| 20% commission | Referrer | Continuously, on the invitee's future PP earnings |

The lifetime commission¶
Every time someone you referred earns PP from activity — check-ins, swaps, sweeps, burns, quests, spins — you automatically receive 20% of that amount as bonus PP. Their earnings are never reduced; your commission is minted on top.
Example: your invitee has a strong week — 400 PP of boosted check-ins, 3,000 PP from sweeps, 1,500 PP from quests = 4,900 PP. You receive 980 PP without doing anything.
What does not pay commission: referral bonuses themselves (your invitee inviting others earns them commission, not you — no multi-level cascading), and one-time drops like the Footprint Drop. To be confirmed before publication: the precise excluded list shown in-app.

Coming soon: Co-Founder Pass boost¶
A commission boost for Co-Founder Pass holders is planned: pass holders will earn an increased commission rate of 30% instead of 20%. This is not live yet — details and launch timing will be announced. Nothing needs to be done now; the boost will apply automatically to qualifying holders when it ships.
Rules and limits¶
- One referrer per account, ever — applying a code is permanent and can't be changed.
- You cannot refer yourself, and abusing multi-wallet self-referrals risks removal of wrongly earned PP.
- Signup bonuses and commissions are not multiplied by the streak boost.
- There is no cap on how many people you can refer or on lifetime commission.
User Safety Note Referral links never ask for funds, approvals, or signatures — applying a code is a free in-app action. Be wary of fake "DustSwap referral" sites; only use links on the official app.dustswap.wtf domain.
FAQ¶
I already use DustSwap — can I still apply a friend's code? Yes, as long as you've never had a referrer. The 500 PP bonus applies when you do.
Does my friend lose anything from my commission? No. They always keep 100% of their earnings; your 20% is added separately.
Where do I track my referrals? Your Profile shows referral counts and earnings, and the Leaderboards include a referral ranking.
