Our referral program allows customers to invite their friends to Poloniex and earn rewards from the trading fees their friends pay. 

As inviters, existing Poloniex customers will earn 20% of the net trading fees their friends pay and their friends (referrals) will receive 10% of their net trading fees back. Both inviters and referrals will earn rewards for up to 180 days from the referral’s sign up date or until both parties earn a combined reward total of 5,000 USDC. 

Terms & Conditions of Our Referral Program

1. Rewards will be paid out to inviters and referrals once each day in USDC.
2. An inviter will receive 20% on their referral’s net trading fees. Referrals will earn a 10% rebate on their own trading fees.
3. Rewards are calculated based on the net spot and margin trading fees paid on trades the referral places. Net trading fees are calculated on a trade execution level. Each time a referral completes a trade, we will look at the fees they pay combined with the fees the counterparty on the other side of their trade pays.
   Net Trading Fees = [Trading fees paid by referral + Trading fees paid by trade counterparty]
   This calculation will occur for every trade your referral completes. The total of net trading fees each day will determine both the inviter’s and referral’s daily rewards.
4. If an inviter’s or referral’s total daily rewards are less than 0.00000001 USDC, rewards will not be paid out.
5. Inviters and referrals are eligible to receive rewards for up to 180 days from the referral’s sign up date or until the inviter and referral together have earned a combined aggregate of 5,000 USDC.
6. Both Level 1 and Level 2 customers can participate, and each customer can invite as many friends as they want. There is no limit to the number of referrals one account can have.
7. A referral can only be connected to one inviter. An inviter’s referral code must be entered when the referral creates a Poloniex account. If the referral does not enter a code at sign up, they will not be connected to the inviter and neither the inviter or referral will earn rewards.
8. Customers cannot invite themselves to earn rewards using multiple accounts. Once this behavior has been detected, you will be disqualified from the Referral Program and all earned or accrued referral rewards will be cancelled immediately.
9. Customers cannot invite accounts owned or controlled by existing Poloniex customers. Once this behavior has been detected, you will be disqualified from the Referral Program and all unpaid earned or accrued referral rewards will be cancelled immediately.
10. We are unable to accept referrals from and cannot pay out rewards to customer accounts that are frozen, closed, or based out of a country in our prohibited countries list. For further details, please refer to our User Agreement.
11. Poloniex reserves the right to modify the rules or rewards of this Referral Program at any point by publishing an updated set of program information in this help center article.
