Referrals
Important Update (Effective March 28, 2025)
We’re introducing a new affiliate framework featuring two programs:
Default Referral Program: 10% Cash Rebates
How It Works: No need to contact us; simply share your referral code, and you’ll earn 10% of the trading fees generated by your referred, KYC‑verified users.
Rebates: Referral rebates can be claimed up to 24 months after they become available.
4:1 Points Match + 10% Cash Rebates
How It Works: For every 4 points your referred users earn, you receive 1 point (in addition to your 10% cash rebate).
Eligibility Requirements:
$20 million monthly referral volume
15 active referred users per month
5 new user acquisitions per month
Sign Up: f you’re interested in participating, please fill out this form.
Note:
If you’ve previously arranged specific rates through our local teams, your existing rates won’t change.
Referral rebates are populated weekly, and volume generated by referrals is not immediately claimable.
We cannot retroactively add referrals for users who have already completed KYC without using your code.
How do I refer someone to Backpack Exchange?
To invite a new user:
1. Locate Your Referral Code
On the web: Go to backpack.exchange/referrals.
On the mobile app: Navigate to your Exchange Account → Points Screen → Referrals tab.
Customization Tip: You must have $1,000,000 in lifetime trading volume to customize your code. Otherwise, a default code is assigned.
2. Share Your Code
Give the code directly to your friend, colleague, or community member.
3. Track Referral Activity
Once they sign up using your code and complete KYC, you’ll start earning referral rebates based on their trading fees.

On desktop: Visit backpack.exchange/signup.
On mobile: Download the Backpack app, open it, and follow the prompts to create an account.
2. Enter the Referral Code
During signup, look for the “Add referral” field.
Input the code you received from your referrer.
3. Complete KYC
After verifying your identity, you’re all set. Your referrer will begin receiving rebates, and you’ll gain access to all of Backpack Exchange’s features.
