# Referrals, shills and tips

> Earn a share of 2hour.fun's fee from people you invite and from your shills, and receive tips.

## Referrals

Invite people to 2hour.fun with your **referral link**. When they trade, you earn **20% of 2hour.fun's fee** on their trades, for life. It doesn't cost them anything extra.

**1. Find your link**

It's on your **profile** and looks like 2hour.fun/r/yourname. Copy it, or tap **Share card** for an image to post.

**2. Someone signs in through it**

They open your link and sign in, and they're linked to you.

**3. You earn on their trades**

Every time they trade, you earn 20% of 2hour.fun's fee on that trade.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Example:** a friend you referred makes a \$100 trade. The 1% trade fee is \$1, and the part of it that goes to 2hour.fun is shared with you at 20%. Your profile shows the running total.

* **Referrals don't expire.** You keep earning from people you brought in.
* **Every trade counts.** Their trades on a coin's bonding curve and in its pool after it graduates both earn you your share.
* **Name changes are fine.** Links with your current name or either of your last two names keep working. You can change it once a week.
* **Shared links count too.** Links to a coin, a win card or a shared fumble can carry your referral.

## Shill earnings

A **shill** (or call) is a public post on a coin you hold, saying you rate it. For **7 days**, anyone who taps your shill and then trades that coin earns you **10% of 2hour.fun's fee** on their trades, before and after it graduates. If they later tap someone else's shill on the same coin, the newer one takes over.

See [Notes and following](https://docs.2hour.fun/notes-and-following.md) for the rules on posting shills and how calls are scored.

## Tips

Anyone can tip you in ETH or SOL from your profile or your notes. Tips go straight from their wallet to yours, and 2hour.fun takes no cut.

## Creator fees

If you launch a coin, you earn a share of the fee on every trade of it. See [Fees](https://docs.2hour.fun/fees.md#the-trade-fee-and-creator-fees).

## Getting paid

Referral and shill earnings are sent to your wallet **automatically**, in the pair token of the coin that was traded (for example TSLA for a TSLA coin, ETH for an ETH coin). Very small amounts, under about \$1, are saved up and sent once they pass it. Every payment is listed on the [Payouts](https://docs.2hour.fun/payouts.md) page.

> [!WARNING]

> Be honest when you share: never promise people they'll make money.
