The Kuest affiliate program allows you to earn ongoing commissions from traders you refer to the platform. All attribution is tracked on-chain, ensuring transparent and permanent credit for your referrals.

How It Works

The affiliate program uses blockchain-based attribution to track referrals:
1

Get Your Referral Link

Every user automatically has a unique referral link available in settings.
2

Share Your Link

Share your referral link on social media, websites, or directly with friends.
3

Users Sign Up

When someone signs up through your link, they’re permanently attributed to you on-chain.
4

Earn Commissions

You earn a percentage of trading fees from your referrals’ trades, paid automatically.

On-Chain Attribution

Kuest uses smart contracts for referral tracking:

Permanent Attribution

  • Referral relationships recorded on-chain
  • Cannot be changed or removed
  • Verifiable on the blockchain
  • No expiration date

First-Touch Attribution

The first referral link a user clicks receives permanent credit:
  • First referrer gets credit forever
  • Subsequent referral links have no effect
  • Protects original referrer’s commission

Privacy & Transparency

  • Referral counts and volumes are public
  • Individual referral identities can remain private
  • Commission calculations are transparent
  • Verify your referrals on-chain

Fee Sharing

Commission Structure

Affiliates earn a percentage of trading fees: Default Commission Rate
  • 30% of the exchange trading fee
  • Applied to all referral trades
  • Paid out automatically
  • No minimum payout
How Commission Works
Referral makes a trade:
- Trade value: $1,000
- Trading fee (2%): $20
- Your commission (30% of fee): $6
Commission is taken from the trading fee at execution, not from trade volume. The exchange base fee comes out first, then the affiliate commission is calculated.

Higher Commission Tiers

Earn higher commissions with more referrals:
