Dequan’s referral program is straightforward: you share your referral link, traders sign up through it, and as those traders use the platform, you earn a percentage of the fees they pay — for as long as the referral relationship lasts.

​
The basic mechanics

Get your referral link

Every Dequan account has a referral code. Find yours in your account settings; share it as a link or a short code.

A trader signs up through your link

Their account is permanently associated with your referral. They get a small fee discount immediately as a thank-you for joining via your invite.

They trade as normal

Their trading experience is identical to anyone else’s — same features, same limits, same speed.

You earn a percentage of their trading fees

On every trade they make, a percentage of the platform fee is automatically routed to you. Payouts settle on a regular cadence directly to your wallet.

What makes Dequan’s referral program different

Two-sided value

Referrals get a fee discount immediately. They are not paying more so you can earn — they are paying less than they would otherwise, while you also earn. Both sides win.

Real percentages, sustainably

The percentage you earn is meaningful — typical referral programs in this space pay either too little to matter or too much to be honest. Dequan’s rate is calibrated to be real money for real referrers without farming-friendly extremes.

Defended against gaming

The referral anti-abuse system automatically throttles farmers. Real referrers see no impact; gamers see their yield collapse. This is what lets us pay legitimate referrers well — the program isn’t being drained by abuse.

No multi-level marketing

You earn from people you directly referred, not from people they referred. There are no “downlines,” no MLM-style pyramid structures. The relationship is one level deep, by design.

On-chain auditable

Every payout is an on-chain transaction. You can verify your earnings without trusting Dequan’s internal accounting.

​
Who this is for

The referral program is especially effective for:
  • Trader communities and Discord servers introducing members to a faster tool.
  • Content creators and educators demonstrating Dequan in tutorials.
  • Power users with networks who genuinely think their trader friends will benefit.
It is not designed for:
  • Cold-blast farming through bot networks (caught by anti-abuse).
  • Self-referral schemes (caught by anti-abuse).
  • Wash-trade pyramid setups (caught by anti-abuse).
The system works precisely because the legitimate use case is rewarded heavily and the gamed use case is throttled fast. Both halves of that pairing are the program.

​
The fine print, plainly

  • Payouts are denominated in SOL (the platform’s native fee currency).
  • Payouts settle on a regular cadence — typically a fixed window after each trade fee is collected.
  • Anti-abuse may delay or reduce payouts if patterns indicate gaming. See the throttle tier system in Referral Anti-Abuse.
  • Referrals are permanent for the lifetime of the referee’s account, unless either party explicitly disables the relationship.
  • You can refer Sniper and Apex tier users and earn at the same proportional rate.
