Two Kinds of Referral on Freya: Invite Tasks vs Commission
"Referral" on Freya means two different things, and mixing them up is one of the most common points of confusion. There are referral tasks, which are one-time rewards for inviting people, and there is the referral commission, which is an ongoing cut of what your invitees generate. They live in different places, pay in different ways, and you can benefit from both at once.
This article untangles them. For the commission mechanics in depth, see the referral program guide; for the task system, see the Earn tasks guide.
Key Takeaways
- Referral tasks are one-time Earn rewards for inviting people: invite a set number of friends, or have them deposit or trade, and you earn XP and USDT.
- Referral commission is ongoing: you earn a share of Freya's commission on your referred users' profitable trading, for as long as they trade.
- Tasks pay once when you hit the milestone; commission pays continuously as your invitees stay active.
- The referral commission is capped at 20%, which is Freya's own cut of a referred user's trading profit.
- Both can apply to the same referral: a friend you invite can complete an invite task and generate ongoing commission.
- If you later become a Partner, future trades route through the partner program instead, so there is no double-paying.
Referral tasks reward the act of inviting; referral commission rewards what the people you invited go on to do. One is a one-time bonus, the other is a residual income stream.
Referral Tasks: One-Time Rewards for Inviting
Inside the Earn system, referral is one of the task categories. These tasks reward the act of bringing people to Freya and getting them started. They come in tiers: invite a certain number of friends, or have the people you invited take a first step like making a deposit or placing a trade, and the task completes.
Like every Earn task, completing one pays XP, which raises your rank, and many also pay a fixed USDT reward to your Freya balance. The defining feature is that they are one-time. Hit the milestone, collect the reward, and that specific task is done. Invite ten friends, earn the ten-invite task once. They are a burst of reward for the effort of referring, not an income stream.
Referral Commission: An Ongoing Cut
The referral commission is a different animal entirely. When someone you referred trades profitably, Freya takes its commission on that profit, and you earn a share of Freya's commission, not a fee on your friend's money. That share is capped at 20 percent, which is the size of Freya's own cut of a referred user's trading profit.
The defining feature here is that it is ongoing. As long as the people you referred keep trading, you keep earning a slice of the commission their activity generates. One good referral who trades actively for a year can pay you far more over time than any one-time invite task. It accrues to your referral commission balance, which you track and withdraw separately.
They Stack on the Same Referral
Because these are two systems, the same person you invite can trigger both. Bring a friend in, and:
- You may complete an invite task for referring them, earning XP and a one-time USDT reward.
- And you begin earning ongoing commission on their profitable trading for as long as they stay active.
There is no either-or. A single well-chosen referral, someone who actually trades, is valuable twice over: once as a task milestone and continuously as a commission stream.
| Referral tasks | Referral commission | |
|---|---|---|
| What it rewards | The act of inviting and onboarding | Your invitees' ongoing profitable trading |
| How often it pays | Once, at the milestone | Continuously, as they trade |
| What you earn | XP plus a fixed USDT reward | A share of Freya's commission, up to 20% |
| Where it lives | The Earn tasks page | Your referral commission balance |
What Happens If You Become a Partner
There is one important interaction to know. Freya also has a separate Partner program with higher, tiered rates for serious affiliates. If you become a Partner, your invitees' future trades route through the partner pipeline instead of the legacy referral commission, at partner-tier rates. This is a handoff, not a double payment: you are not paid twice on the same trade, and your past referral commissions are unaffected. For most people the plain referral commission is the starting point, and the Partner program is the upgrade path if referring becomes a real focus.
Putting It to Work
- Know which is which. Tasks are one-time invite rewards; commission is an ongoing cut of trading. Do not expect a task to keep paying, or a commission to arrive the moment you invite someone.
- Chase quality, not just quantity, for commission. Ten friends who never trade earn you the invite tasks but little commission. One active trader can outpay them all over time.
- Complete the invite tasks along the way. They are a free bonus on referrals you are making anyway. Check the Earn tasks page for the current tiers.
- Consider the Partner program if you go big. If referring becomes a real channel for you, the Partner program offers higher, tiered rates and additional revenue streams.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between referral tasks and referral commission?
Referral tasks are one-time Earn rewards for the act of inviting people: invite a set number of friends, or have them deposit or trade, and you earn XP and a fixed USDT reward. Referral commission is ongoing: you earn a share of Freya's commission on your referred users' profitable trading for as long as they stay active. Tasks pay once at the milestone; commission pays continuously.
How much is the referral commission?
You earn a share of Freya's commission on a referred user's profitable trading, capped at 20 percent, which is the size of Freya's own cut of that profit. You are never charged a fee on your friend's money; your earnings come out of Freya's commission, not theirs.
Can I earn both on the same person I invite?
Yes. The two systems are separate, so a single referral can both complete an invite task, earning you XP and a one-time reward, and generate ongoing commission as they trade. A referral who actually trades is valuable twice: once as a milestone and continuously as a commission stream.
What happens to my referrals if I become a Partner?
If you become a Partner, your invitees' future trades route through the partner program at partner-tier rates instead of the legacy referral commission. It is a handoff, not double payment, so you are not paid twice on the same trade, and your past referral commissions are unaffected.
