# Referrals Share the GATE 2 campaign with friends who'd enjoy it. When someone joins through your referral link and contributes, you both earn Merit Points. *** ### How it works 1. **You share your referral link or code** with a friend. 2. **Your friend signs up and makes a contribution** to the GATE 2 campaign. 3. **You both earn Merit Points.** The referrer and the referred supporter each receive Merit once the contribution is confirmed. Merit Points earned through referrals count toward your position on the [Merit Leaderboard](/gate-2-campaign/leaderboard.md) and your eligibility for [Oshi Membership Rewards](/start-here/oshi-membership-rewards.md). > 💡 Both you and the person you refer must be contributors to earn referral Merit. Your friend needs to make at least one contribution for either of you to receive points. *** ### Finding your referral link Your referral link becomes available once you've contributed to the campaign. There are two ways to access it: **After contributing:** Your referral link and code appear in a pop-up right after you complete a contribution. You can copy the link or share it directly from there. **From your profile:** Click the **Earn Merit** button (top right corner on any page) to open your referral details. You'll see your unique link and code, along with sharing options. Each supporter has a unique referral code tied to their account. *** ### Sharing options You can share your referral link through: * X (Twitter) * Discord * WhatsApp * Telegram * Copy link (paste anywhere) *** ### Entering a referral code If you signed up through a friend's referral link, you're already connected and no extra step is needed. If you signed up without a referral link, you can still enter your friend's referral code in your **profile settings** to claim referral credit. You'll need to be a contributor for the referral to count. *** ### How much Merit do referrals earn? The Merit you earn as a referrer depends on the rank your referred friend joins at. Higher ranks earn more Merit for both parties. See the full breakdown on the [Merit Quests](/gate-2-campaign/merit-quests.md) page. *** ### Tips **Share with friends who'd genuinely enjoy GATE 2.** Referrals work best when you're connecting real fans to something they'll love. **Your referral link works across platforms.** Copy it once and share it wherever your community hangs out. **Check your Merit balance.** Referral Merit is awarded once your friend's contribution is confirmed. You can track your total on your profile. *** **Related articles** * [Merit Quests](/gate-2-campaign/merit-quests.md): Full list of quests and referral Merit breakdown by tier * [Valor & Merit Points](/gate-2-campaign/valor-and-merit-points.md): How Valor and Merit work together * [Leaderboard](/gate-2-campaign/leaderboard.md): Where your Merit ranking is displayed * [Getting Started](/start-here/getting-started.md): How to create your account and make your first contribution **Need help?** · [Discord](https://discord.gg/oshi) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
