Create a referral link for collaborators
Generate a referral code that partners can use so distribution and revenue-sharing start from a trackable link instead of an informal agreement.

Referral links turn collaborator intent into a concrete, attributable invitation path.
What this walkthrough covers
What this feature does
This walkthrough creates a shareable referral path for collaborators.
Why people use it
If your collaborations live only in messages or verbal promises, they are hard to track and easy to misunderstand.
A referral link makes the collaboration concrete:
- it gives the partner something real to share,
- it gives you a consistent entry path,
- it makes the relationship easier to explain later.
Step-by-step
How the flow works
Step 1
Open the creator settings area
Goal: Go to the place where referrals and collaborator-facing controls live.
Why it matters: This keeps referral setup tied to the rest of your creator business settings.
Route: /settings/creator

The walkthrough begins in the actual referral panel before a code has been generated.
Step 2
Generate the referral code
Goal: Create a shareable code or link for partners.
Why it matters: A concrete code makes collaboration operational and attributable.
Route: /settings/creator

This step captures the in-app generation action instead of a generic dashboard view.
Step 3
Use the resulting link in outreach
Goal: Move from setup to actual collaborator distribution.
Why it matters: The link matters only if it becomes part of the partner’s actual invitation or promotion flow.
Route: /settings/creator

The final step shows the share-ready state after a live referral code exists.
Common questions
What people usually ask
Can I make more than one referral code later?
The important thing in this walkthrough is learning the path and the result. How many codes you maintain later depends on how you organize collaborators.
Who should receive this link?
Publishers, co-creators, or partners who are genuinely helping distribute the offer and need a clear entry point.
