Who can enroll#
Each collection has a limited set of affiliate positions. In the current program, an applicant must hold an NFT from an earlier eligible official collection on the same network. It does not need to be a winning NFT. The first collection in that network’s canonical eligibility registry is the bootstrap exception and can enroll without a prior NFT.
For current ranked-prize source collections, the earlier draw must have sold out, revealed and fully backed its outstanding liabilities. Every winner does not need to have claimed yet. Older supported sources must meet their own completion rules. Failed, refunded, unknown and current-collection NFTs do not qualify.
- One position per wallet in each collection.
- One qualifying NFT can unlock only one position in that destination collection, even if it is transferred afterward.
- Keep ownership until enrollment confirms. Afterward, selling the NFT does not move or cancel your affiliate position or earned balance.
- The NFT’s current holder may use it again for a different future collection.
- Enrollment closes at the scheduled opening time, even if sale activation is delayed.
Enroll, then share your link#
- Open the collection’s Affiliate rewards page and connect the intended account.
- Choose an eligible NFT where required and complete wallet verification and the automated abuse checks.
- Review the offered position and collection terms, then submit the enrollment transaction before the window closes.
- Once enrolled, copy that position’s collection-specific referral URL and share it with potential buyers.
- Follow your attributed tickets and qualification progress on the affiliate page.
Admission uses a signed permit bound to the applicant, collection, position, terms, eligibility NFT, nonce and expiry. The contract verifies the permit and the NFT requirement. Network and human-verification checks reduce abuse; they do not prove that every wallet belongs to a different person.
What counts as a referral#
A referral counts when a paid mint confirms with your enrolled affiliate position recorded in the transaction. Clicks, connected wallets and unsigned orders do not count. A direct mint without attribution cannot be assigned to you later.
The buyer pays the same mint price. The current contract rejects a referral when the enrolled affiliate is the transaction payer or the NFT recipient. Sponsored winner-reward mints do not count as referred sales.
A URL is a way to carry an affiliate ID to the mint page, not an entitlement to money by itself. Changing it cannot create an unregistered position or change the contract’s payout terms. Buyers should check the displayed referral before signing; sharing a link does not guarantee that a buyer keeps its attribution.
How the pool is shared#
At sellout, every affiliate with at least one paid referral receives the full affiliate budget divided by the number of qualifying affiliates. There is no referral-count payout cap. With a 2 ETH pool, one qualifying affiliate receives 2 ETH; five receive 0.4 ETH each. Additional referrals do not increase an individual share. Affiliates with no paid referrals receive nothing. Equal integer shares can leave less than one wei per qualifying affiliate; if nobody qualifies, the full pool remains unallocated.
For historical V7–V10 collections, only enrolled affiliates who reach the collection’s published minimum number of paid referred tickets qualify. At sellout, all qualified affiliates receive an equal allocation, subject to a common payout cap. Empty positions and enrolled affiliates below the minimum receive nothing.
| Step | Calculation |
|---|---|
| Pool | The collection’s configured affiliate allocation from primary mint receipts. |
| Uncapped equal share | The pool divided by the number of qualified affiliates. |
| Common cap | The collection’s ETH limit per qualifying referral multiplied by the fewest paid referrals among qualified affiliates. |
| Each qualified affiliate’s payout | The smaller of the uncapped equal share and the common cap. |
In those historical capped collections, if four affiliates qualify, each receives the same allocation. The common cap still applies, so qualification does not guarantee that the entire pool is distributed. Check the collection’s referral minimum and payout cap, then use your final claimable balance to see what you have earned.
The growth reserve is not an affiliate entitlement or automatically enforced future spending. After reveal, the owner can release it through a separate recorded withdrawal. Earlier collections may use proportional pools or individual referral rates instead of this qualified-equal model.
Claim your affiliate rewards#
A final affiliate balance becomes claimable at sellout. The enrolled wallet can withdraw it to a chosen receiving address without waiting for the winners’ prize claims. The withdrawal needs a network fee. Estimates before sellout can change as receipts and the set of qualifiers change.
No referrals means no payout. Referrals below the minimum also mean no payout. If the collection expires unsold, no affiliate share vests and the NFT refund path applies instead. Refreshing balances only rereads information; it does not claim money or submit a transaction.
