The Stasher News Referral System is a powerful tool to both increase adoption of Stasher News as well as give you more opportunities to earn a slice of the weekly rewards pie.
How the system works:
- earn 10% of a stasher's rewards in perpetuity if they sign up from your referral links
- nearly all stasher links are referral links:
- your profile link is an implicit referral link
- all links to post and comments are implicit referral links attributed to the OP
- links to turfs are implicit referral links attributed to the turf founder
- appending /r/stasher to any stasher link makes it a ref link to stasher
- your confirmed referrals count every stasher who signed up via one of your links
So head on over to your referrals dashboard, copy your referral link, and start sharing on twitter/X, reddit, and elsewhere.
I have “confirmed 4 referrals” but I have not shared any links anywhere. Is that a bug or do I just not get how it works?
I checked, all your referrals came from people who signed up from this post #338537
So the post was possibly shared by someone, and then four people signed up from it. Its working as intended.
FYI, we're looking to rework the referrals just a bit. Most of the referral system is inherited from upstream stacker news, but I'm not sure I like the idea of "accidental referrals" like the ones you experienced. We are exploring making referrals intentional and explicit only.
But don't worry, you wouldn't lose your referrals. Previous referrals would be grandfathered-in if we decide to change the rules.
Good site!
