Referral Program

Overview

Every Edge account gets a referral code. When someone signs up through it, two things happen: they receive $10 of free prepaid credit on their first top-up, and you start earning revenue share on everything they spend — 15% in year one, 10% in year two, 5% in year three. Earnings are credited straight to your prepaid balance as your referrals spend, with no minimum payout and nothing to configure.

Your Referral Code

Your referral code is found in Account → Referral Program. It is auto-generated as REF-XXXXXXXX, but you can customise it to any alphanumeric string.

Share your referral link: edge.network/r/{code}

What Your Referrals Get

Referred customers get $10 of free prepaid credit. The credit is added to their balance automatically once they've verified their email and made their first top-up of $10 or more — effectively doubling their first top-up.

What You Earn

You earn a percentage of your referrals' actual spend — usage billed from their balance and any subscription payments — for three years from their first spend:

Earnings are credited to your prepaid balance automatically as your referrals spend (batched into roughly $1 increments to keep your balance history readable). There is no minimum payout, no payout schedule, and no configuration — the money is simply there to spend on anything on Edge, or to sit alongside your top-ups.

Refer a customer spending $500 a month and you earn about $75 a month in year one — $900 over the year, $1,500 over the full three years. A handful of real referrals covers most bills.

How It Works

1. Share your referral link with potential customers
2. They sign up through it and get $10 of credit on their first top-up of $10 or more
3. Their first spend activates your revenue share and starts the 3-year clock
4. As they spend, your share is credited to your prepaid balance automatically
5. Track referrals, earnings, and history in Account → Referral Program

Promotional Tools

The Referral Program page includes tools to help you share:

• Pre-written social media posts
• Email templates
• Copy-paste share links

Rules

To keep the program fair for everyone:

• Self-referral is blocked — you cannot refer your own accounts
• One referrer per customer — the code used at signup wins
• Revenue share applies to real spend only: top-ups themselves, refunds, and promotional credits don't count until they're spent
• Referrals made to game the system (fake accounts, same-person signups) are voided
• Customers referred under the legacy subscription programme continue under the terms that applied when those referrals were made
