# Referral Program

Invite people to MidasPredict and earn two types of ongoing rewards when they trade: **bonus Midas Points** and **cash from the Referral Reward Pool**. Referral relationships are permanent and work three tiers deep.

## How to Activate Your Referral Link

Make at least one **real deposit of $10 or more** into MidasPredict (into a market or protocol contract — not just a wallet transfer). Once done, your link is permanently active.

## How the 3-Tier System Works

```
You
 └── Alice (Tier 1 — you invited her)
      └── Bob (Tier 2 — Alice invited him)
           └── Carol (Tier 3 — Bob invited her)
```

## What You Earn

### Reward 1: Bonus Midas Points

| Tier       | Relationship              | Your Bonus           |
| ---------- | ------------------------- | -------------------- |
| **Tier 1** | You invited them directly | **10%** of their MP  |
| **Tier 2** | Invited by your Tier 1    | **1%** of their MP   |
| **Tier 3** | Invited by your Tier 2    | **0.1%** of their MP |

Nothing is taken from them — they keep 100% of their own points. These bonus points count toward your monthly Points Reward Pool share.

### Reward 2: Cash from the Referral Reward Pool

Every trade contributes **0.125% of trade volume** to the Referral Reward Pool. Per-trade distribution:

| Tier          | Share of Pool (per trade) |
| ------------- | ------------------------- |
| **Tier 1**    | 10%                       |
| **Tier 2**    | 1%                        |
| **Tier 3**    | 0.1%                      |
| **Remainder** | 88.9% → Treasury          |

Cash rewards are credited automatically to your balance. No claiming required.
