## referral system documentation

### overview

our two-tiered referral system rewards users for bringing new traders to the platform. by referring others, you can earn both trading fee commissions and additional durian points, creating multiple revenue streams from your network's trading activity.

### referral structure

#### two-tier referral model

our referral system operates on a two-level structure:

* **level 1**: users you directly refer (your referrals)
* **level 2**: users who are referred by your level 1 referrals (your referrals' referrals)

### referral rewards

#### trading fee commissions

when users you've referred pay trading fees, you receive a percentage of those fees as commission:

* **level 1 referrals**: 28% of all trading fees generated
* **level 2 referrals**: 12% of all trading fees generated

for example:

* your direct referral (level 1) pays $100 in trading fees
  * you earn $28 commission (28%)
* your level 1 referral refers someone (your level 2) who pays $100 in trading fees
  * you earn $12 commission (12%)
  * your level 1 referral earns $28 (28%)

commissions are paid in the same cryptocurrency in which the trading fees were collected.

#### durian points boosts

in addition to fee commissions, you also earn durian points based on the trading activity of your referral network:

* **level 1 referrals**: 35% of all durian points earned by your direct referrals
* **level 2 referrals**: 15% of all durian points earned by your indirect referrals

example:

* your level 1 referral earns 1,000 durian points from trading
  * you receive 350 additional durian points (35%)
* your level 2 referral earns 1,000 durian points from trading
  * you receive 150 additional durian points (15%)
  * your level 1 referral receives 350 durian points (35%)

importantly, these bonus points don't reduce the points earned by your referrals – they're awarded in addition to the normal points earned through trading.

### how to refer users

#### your unique referral link

each user receives a unique referral link that can be found in your account settings. this link can be shared anywhere you like - social media, email, messaging apps, your website, video descriptions, forums, or even in person by having someone scan a QR code.

#### referral process

for someone to become your referral, they must:

1. download the app
2. add your referral link in the designated field within the app

users can add a referral link either:

* during initial registration, or
* at any point after creating their account

once a referral link is added, it cannot be removed or changed. the first referral link added is permanently associated with the account.

### tracking referral performance

you can easily track your referral earnings directly in your account. we show you:

* total number of level 1 and level 2 referrals
* active versus inactive referrals
* total commissions earned (historical and current month)
* breakdown showing which referrals have earned you the most commissions

all statistics are updated in real-time, allowing you to monitor your referral performance accurately.

***

### commission distribution

#### automatic balance credit

all earned commissions are automatically added to your main account balance in real-time:

* commissions are immediately available for trading or withdrawal
* credited in USD

there is no minimum amount required to receive commissions - you earn from the very first trade your referrals make, no matter how small.

#### permanent structure

the referral system is permanent with no specific expiration date:

* commissions continue for the lifetime of referred accounts
* durian points boosts apply to all trading activity of your referrals
* the two-tier structure remains valid indefinitely

there are no time limits or periodic resets to the referral relationships established through the system.
