Source: https://autoplus.gg/docs/referral-system



AutoPlus offers a rewarding referral program that allows you to earn a percentage of escrow fees and bonus points when you invite new users to the platform. This guide explains how the referral system works and how you can benefit from it.

## How the Referral System Works [#how-it-works]

The referral system is designed to reward users who help grow the AutoPlus community. When you invite someone to the AutoPlus Discord server using your personal invite link, you'll be eligible to receive rewards when they complete trades.

Here's a breakdown of how it works:

<ol className="list-decimal list-inside ml-4 space-y-2">
  <li>
    Invite a new user to join AutoPlus using your Discord invite link
  </li>

  <li>
    When your referred user completes trades on AutoPlus, you'll receive rewards
  </li>

  <li>
    The system automatically tracks and attributes referrals based on the Discord invite used
  </li>
</ol>

## Referral Rewards [#referral-rewards]

As a referrer, you'll receive two types of rewards when users you've invited complete trades:

<Block className="mt-4" color="gray">
  <h3 className="text-lg font-semibold">
    Escrow Fee Share
  </h3>

  <p className="mt-2">
    You'll receive 

    <b>50% of the escrow fees</b>

     generated from trades made by users you've referred.
  </p>
</Block>

<Block className="mt-4" color="gray">
  <h3 className="text-lg font-semibold">
    Bonus Points
  </h3>

  <p className="mt-2">
    You'll earn 

    <b>10 points for each dollar</b>

     of escrow fee paid by the user you referred.
  </p>
</Block>

## Limitations and Conditions [#limitations]

The referral program includes the following limitations:

<ul className="list-disc list-inside ml-4 space-y-2">
  <li>
    <b>First 10 trades only:</b>

     You'll only receive rewards for the first 10 trades completed by each user you refer.
  </li>

  <li>
    <b>Sender-based rewards:</b>

     If two referred users trade with each other (within their first 10 trades), only the person who referred the sender will receive the referral rewards.
  </li>
</ul>

## How to Start Referring [#getting-started]

To start referring users and earning rewards:

<ol className="list-decimal list-inside ml-4 space-y-2">
  <li>
    <span>
      Go to Discord's Server Settings and create an invite link
    </span>

    <Block color="gray" padding="p-2" className="mt-2">
      Server Settings → Invite People → Generate a New Link
    </Block>
  </li>

  <li>
    Share your invite link with potential new users
  </li>

  <li>

    `/balance`

     command, which shows both your points balance and your referral earnings
  </li>
</ol>

    Example Scenario
  </h3>

  <p>
    Let's say you refer a friend who makes a $100 trade with a 0.25% escrow fee ($0.25):
  </p>

  <ul className="list-disc list-inside ml-4 space-y-1 mt-2">
    <li>
      You earn 50% of the fee: 

      <b>$0.125</b>
    </li>

    <li>
      You also earn points: 

      <b>🔹2.5</b>

       points (10 points × $0.25)
    </li>
  </ul>

  <p className="mt-2">
    This applies to all of your friend's first 10 trades on AutoPlus.
