Referrals
Invite a business you work with; once real customers have paid it, you both get a reward in USDC on NEAR.
The rule
| Sandbox | Live | |
|---|---|---|
| The invited business receives, from its customers, within 30 days | $5 | $50 |
| Then you each get | $1 in test USDC | $10 in USDC |
| Paid after a hold of | 10 minutes | 48 hours |
| Rewards a year for each business that invites | 10 | 10 |
The reward is its own NEAR transaction from Tegata, with its own receipt.
What doesn't count
- Money from you, from them, or from anyone either of you sent money to.
- A customer already counted for another invite: each paying customer counts toward one invite only.
- Payments marked paid by hand.
- A business inviting itself, or a second address of the same inbox.
A business has one referrer. It can change or remove it until it is first paid; after that it's fixed. The worker checks every 5 minutes and pays rewards whose hold has passed.
How an invite works
- Share your link,
/join/<your-handle>, or its QR code. - The business opens it, sees your seal and the rule, and presses Open your account.
- Your invite rides along through sign-in; their welcome shows an "Invited by" chip they can remove.
- Until it qualifies, their Home shows the invite with progress toward the threshold.
Someone who joined without the link can type your pay address under Who invited you on their Refer page.
A real one
On NEAR testnet, a fresh customer account (made by the proof script and funded by Tegata's operator, never by either business) paid an invited business $5.00 (5rdLsx…jPZqWs); after the 10-minute hold both businesses got $1.00 (GPweE9…whjB3U, 2REcTS…hqYtT9). An earlier payment from an account the inviting business had funded counted for nothing, as the rules say.
