How referral programmes actually work.
Referral programmes credit both the referrer and the referred friend. The credit is usually small; the turnover requirement is real. This route explains the three clauses that matter before you share a code.

The three clauses
Before you share or use a referral code.
Qualifying deposit
The referred friend usually must make a minimum first deposit (often ₹100–₹500) before either party receives the credit. Some operators set a higher threshold.
Turnover requirement
The referral credit carries the same turnover requirement as a deposit match — typically 5x to 20x the credit amount.
Expiry window
Most operators set an expiry on the referral credit (often 30 to 90 days). An expired credit is forfeited.
The desk’s read
A referral credit should not change your selection logic.
If a friend is already going to enter a contest and the referral credit is genuinely useful, share the code. If the referral credit is the only reason either party is entering, the credit is not the right reason to play.
Share only when the play is genuine.
