Ahrngrim Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 To both of you if you use it on the Forums don't make post around it, that's considered Spam, and you are only allowed to put it in your Signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GythralSWTOR Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 As a subscriber it is already setup, go to your account information a then 'refer a friend', then goto the forum signature (under Forum Management), and put it in that Then post normally, do not create topics or replies just to get your signature out there, & do not post only your RAF link Posting normally, seems to get an acceptable number of clicks if your posts are liked, of course the more doing it the thinner those clicks are spread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragondog Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 As mentioned above, don't put your referral link in the message. You should put it in your signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragondog Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Some people pay for it in game. The rest is just luck and having a lot of friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anduhar Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) I want to clarify a few things that have been said. To find your own personal referral link, go to the "My Account" section on this site (upper right under your account name if you're logged in) and go to the "Refer a Friend" section. Here you will see a link in the middle of the page. Give this link to other players to click on. You can also pay people credits in-game to click on your link. Usually people pay a few million, although there are some scammers out there who don't pay up, so beware of that. If you're going to post of the forums for the hope of an occasional click, DO NOT create a post with your link in it, the only place you're allowed to put it on this site is in your forum signature. Putting your referral link in a post is considered spam. In your account section, go down to "Forum Management" and click on "Update your forum signature" this is where you edit your signature. Normally, if someone clicks on a link and then subscribes to the game within 14 days of clicking on it, the person referring them gets rewards. Unfortunately, not everyone who clicks a link ends up subscribing (at least not within 14 days) and I don't think you get anything unless they subscribe. The exception to this is when someone who has an active subscription clicks your link. When that happens you get some cartel coins no matter what. The person who is being referred gets a bundle of stuff that's different depending on whether they are new to the game or previously subscribed. They also get a free character transfer. The 7 days of free sub time might just be for previous subscribers who click a link but I'm not entirely sure. Either way, the normal rewards for subscribing make it worth subscribing for at least 1 month in my opinion. Subscribing for just 1 month gives free permanent access to all expansions even when you revert back to being F2P and you get free cartel coins each month you are subscribed among lots of other perks. There's a promotion going on right now that ends very soon where you get double cartel coins if someone clicks your link and subscribes for at least 1 month (15 bucks) by either today or, I believe, tomorrow (when the promotion ends). The person being referred also gets cartel coins. So for anyone who wants to, or has, clicked on a link, if you plan on subscribing at some point, doing it either today (Jan 2nd) or possibly tomorrow (after clicking a link) will give both people more rewards. More information on all of this can be found here: http://www.swtor.com/info/friends Edited January 3, 2017 by Anduhar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedlock Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 So I followed the advice and I hope it works, but I did like reading this the community here is actually great. Unlike some other MMO games forums which can be rather not if you know what I mean folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anduhar Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Just a reminder, today is the last day for the double cartel coin referral promotion. To qualify, anyone who clicks a link must subscribe for at least 1 month (15 bucks) by today. This gives both people 500 bonus cartel coins in addition to normal rewards for both people. More information found here: http://www.swtor.com/info/friends Subscribing for just 1 month gives numerous benefits including permanent access to all expansions. Even when reverting back to Preferred status, you will still have access to the expansion content for being subscribed previously. You also get 500 free cartel coins for each month you stay subscribed in addition to many other perks and less restrictions. Here's a table showing the differences between F2P, Preferred, and Subscribed: https://www.reddit.com/r/swtor/wiki/f2p#wiki_differences_quickview Edited January 3, 2017 by Anduhar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huxxar Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 How many times can you click (1) the same person's referral link and (2) other people's links? If I am already subscribed, why would I not click on everyone's links all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vile_sorcery Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 How many times can you click (1) the same person's referral link and (2) other people's links? If I am already subscribed, why would I not click on everyone's links all the time? I think you can only click a referral link once, but I might be wrong about that.

TheSinsith Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Get your referral link off the refer a friend page by clicking "invite a friend". Then go to Forum Management under "Community". Then edit your signature and put your referral link in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragondog Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I think you can only click a referral link once, but I might be wrong about that. If it's been at least three months, you can click on another link and change your support. But you cannot "double support" someone by clicking the same link more than once.
