The basic mechanics
Get your referral link
Every Dequan account has a referral code. Find yours by clicking the ‘Referrals’ button under the wallet connect button. Copy and share the link.
They trade as normal
Their trading experience is identical to anyone else’s — same features, same limits, same speed.
What makes Dequan’s referral program different
Two-sided value
You earn a percentage of every fee your referrals pay. Their fees are unchanged — you earn from the platform’s cut, not from charging them extra. They trade normally; you earn as they do.
Real percentages, sustainably
The percentage you earn is meaningful — typical referral programs in this space pay either too little to matter or too much to be honest. Dequan’s rate is calibrated to be real money for real referrers without farming-friendly extremes.
Defended against gaming
The referral anti-abuse system automatically throttles farmers. Real referrers see no impact; gamers see their yield collapse. This is what lets us pay legitimate referrers well — the program isn’t being drained by abuse.
No multi-level marketing
You earn from people you directly referred, not from people they referred. There are no “downlines,” no MLM-style pyramid structures. The relationship is one level deep, by design.
On-chain auditable
Every payout is an on-chain transaction. You can verify your earnings without trusting Dequan’s internal accounting.
Who this is for
The referral program is especially effective for:- Trader communities and Discord servers introducing members to a faster tool.
- Content creators and educators demonstrating Dequan in tutorials.
- Power users with networks who genuinely think their trader friends will benefit.
- Cold-blast farming through bot networks (caught by anti-abuse).
- Self-referral schemes (caught by anti-abuse).
- Wash-trade pyramid setups (caught by anti-abuse).
The fine print, plainly
- Payouts are denominated in SOL (the platform’s native fee currency).
- Payouts settle on a regular cadence — typically a fixed window after each trade fee is collected.
- Anti-abuse may delay or reduce payouts if patterns indicate gaming. See the throttle tier system in Referral Anti-Abuse.
- Referrals are permanent for the lifetime of the referee’s account, unless either party explicitly disables the relationship.
- You can refer Sniper and Apex tier users and earn at the same proportional rate.
