Referrals

Account

Every person you refer who upgrades to Pro or Max earns you 500 credits. That is five dollars of spending power per paying referral.

Finding your link

The referral window sits outside the seven settings tabs, under Refer and earn. It has two panels: Share and My referrals.

The Share panel holds your personal code, your link and a QR code of that link. The link is the MaShop signup page with your code appended as a ref parameter. Copy link puts it on your clipboard and confirms. Buttons for email, WhatsApp, Twitter and LinkedIn prefill a message with the link already in it.

When it pays

Signing up earns nothing. The reward is released only when the person you referred moves to a paid plan, Pro or Max. Someone who stays on Free never triggers it, however active they are.

The reward is paid once per referred person, at the moment of their upgrade. It lands in your wallet as a bonus line, so it shows under Bonus credits rather than under top up credits.

Rewards of 1 000 credits granted before the amount changed to 500 were left as they were. If you see an older line at 1 000, it is correct.

Following your referrals

Three counters sit at the top of the window: signups, paid, and credits earned. The My referrals panel lists each person with their signup date, their status and the credits they generated for you.

Two statuses exist. Signed up means the account was created through your link and nothing has been paid. Paid plan means the upgrade happened and the reward was granted.

An empty list is normal at the start. MaShop says so plainly and points back to the Share panel.

Making it worth something

The reward is tied to an upgrade, so the useful referral is a person who has something real to build. Someone who needs to publish will upgrade quickly, because publishing requires a paid plan. A curious visitor will not.

The arithmetic is easy to check. Four paying referrals equal one month of Pro credits, which is 2 000. It takes twenty four to equal a month of Max.
