When you refer a new user to Runpod using your unique referral link, both you and your referral receive Runpod credits (between $5-$500) once they spend $10 on the platform. Additionally, you'll earn ongoing commissions of 3% on Pod spend and 5% on Serverless spend for the first 6 months of their usage.

Both you and the person you refer will receive a randomized credit bonus between $5 and $500 when they spend their first $10. Beyond the initial bonus, you'll earn recurring commissions: 3% on Pod spend and 5% on Serverless spend for the first 6 months after they sign up.

Once you've successfully referred 25 users who have each spent at least $10 on Runpod, you'll receive an invitation to join our affiliate program. This unlocks enhanced benefits including 10% commission rates, cash payout options, and direct communication with our team.

The referral program offers credit-based rewards and 3-5% commissions paid in credits. The affiliate program provides 10% commissions on all spend, the option to receive cash payouts instead of credits, priority access to beta features, and a direct line of communication with the Runpod team.

Your referral rewards are revealed and become redeemable once your referred user spends $10 on the platform. Credits are automatically added to your account, while ongoing commissions are calculated based on your referrals' monthly usage during their first 6 months.

Credits are non-transferable and expire after 90 days. Commissions are only earned on spend during the first 6 months after a user signs up. Self-referrals and referral manipulation are prohibited and may result in account suspension.
