How It Works
You share a link. Your friend signs up, deposits, and plays. You earn a cut of the house edge on every bet they place — for as long as they play. No cap, no expiry.
It doesn't stop there. If your referral brings in someone new, you earn from that player too. Two tiers deep.
Find Your Referral Link
Head to the Earn section in the left-side menu on whale.io. Your unique referral link is right there — copy it and you're ready.
Share It
Send the link however you want — DMs, group chats, social, carrier pigeon. The only rule: the person clicking it must be a brand-new player with no existing Whale account. They sign up through your link, connect to whale.promo, deposit, and start playing. That's a valid referral.
What You Earn
Your earnings are based on the house edge of every qualifying bet your referrals place.
Direct Referrals (Tier 1) — You earn 10% of the house edge on their bets.
Tier-2 Referrals — You earn 1% of the house edge on bets placed by players they refer.
Quick Example
Your friend bets $100 on a game with a 5% house edge:
House edge = $100 x 5% = $5
Your Tier-1 cut = $5 x 10% = $0.50
Now say your friend referred someone who makes the same bet:
Your Tier-2 cut = $5 x 1% = $0.05
Total from both = $0.55. It adds up.
Claiming Your Earnings
Once your balance hits $1, you can claim it from the Earn page. Claims go through manual approval — typically processed within 24 hours. Approved funds land in your account as USDT.
Track Your Referrals
Everything lives on the Earn page — your active referrals, pending earnings, and claim history. Check back anytime to see how your network is performing.
What Counts (and What Doesn't)
Valid referrals — New players only. They must sign up through your link, deposit, and play.
Eligible games — Most games qualify. Bets on Spadegaming titles, Tribes, and opposite betting do not count toward your earnings.
Minimum claim — $1.
Fraud — Creating fake accounts or gaming the system leads to disqualification. Keep it clean.
