# Referral Rewards

> Earn credit rewards by inviting friends

By inviting friends to join Profy, both you and your friends can earn credit rewards. It's a simple way to get extra credits.

## How to Invite Friends

<Steps>
  <Step title="Get Your Referral Link">
    Click your avatar in the top-right corner and find "Invite Friends" in the dropdown menu. The system generates a unique referral link and invitation code for you.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Share with Friends">
    Send your referral link or invitation code to friends. They can register directly via the link or enter your code during registration.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Friend Completes the Action">
    After your friend successfully registers and completes the required qualifying action, rewards are automatically issued.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Receive Rewards">
    You (the inviter) and your friend (the invitee) each receive a credit reward. Rewards are automatically credited to both accounts.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Reward Rules

<Note>
  The exact credit amounts for referral rewards are configured by platform operations and may be adjusted at any time. Please refer to the rules displayed in the invitation dialog — specific values are not listed here.
</Note>

### Rewards for Both Parties

When a valid referral is completed, both the inviter and invitee receive a credit reward. The reward amounts for each party are set independently and may differ.

### Referral Cap

Your referral rewards have a cap, which depends on your current subscription plan level:

* **Higher-tier plans have higher referral caps**
* Once you reach your cap, new valid referrals will no longer issue inviter rewards to you
* Invitees always receive their reward regardless of your cap

<Tip>
  Upgrading your plan increases your referral cap. The cap for your current plan is displayed at the bottom of the invitation dialog, along with an upgrade link.
</Tip>

### Binding Rules

* Each user can only be invited once — once they register through a referral link, the binding is permanent
* Referral bindings are permanent
* The referral cap is a lifetime cumulative count and does not reset monthly

## Viewing Referral Records

In the "Invite Friends" dialog, you can see:

* Your unique referral link and invitation code
* Number of friends you've invited
* Total reward credits earned
* Your current plan's referral cap

## Security Measures

To protect the fairness of the referral system, the platform has risk-control mechanisms in place:

<Warning>
  The following behaviors may result in referral binding rejection:

  * Repeated registrations using the same phone number
  * A large number of referral registrations from the same network address within a short period

  Rejected bindings do not affect the invitee's normal registration and usage — they simply don't generate referral rewards.
</Warning>

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="My friend registered but I didn't receive a reward?">
    Your friend must complete the required qualifying action before rewards are issued. If they just registered and haven't completed the required action yet, please be patient. Also, check whether you've reached your current plan's referral cap.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do referral reward credits expire?">
    Yes, referral reward credits have an expiration date and follow the platform's standard [credit expiration rules](/en/documentation/billing/credits#expiration-rules). We recommend using them promptly.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I invite someone who is already registered?">
    No. Referral rewards only apply to new users who register through your referral link. Existing users cannot be bound as your referral.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What is my referral cap?">
    The referral cap depends on your current plan level. Check the specific number in the "Invite Friends" dialog. Upgrading to a higher plan increases your cap.
