Getting Started

How to Refer & Earn

The QanVault protocol features a built-in referral rewards system that allows community advocates and players to earn bonus tickets by sharing the platform.


The 1:10 Bonus Ticket Mechanism#

For every 10 tickets purchased by a referred player, the referrer receives 1 bonus ticket free of charge:

\text{Bonus Tickets Earned} = \left\lfloor \frac{\text{Referred Tickets Purchased}}{10} \right\rfloor
  • Zero Deduction for Buyers: The referred player receives 100% of their purchased tickets. Referral bonus tickets are funded out of the protocol's promotional reserve.
  • Full Draw Eligibility: Referral bonus tickets are genuine tickets that participate across all four scheduled draws (Daily D, Daily D+1, Weekly, and Monthly).
  • Proportional Scaling: If your referral buys 100 tickets, you earn 10 bonus tickets; if they buy 1,000 tickets, you earn 100 bonus tickets.

  1. Connect your Web3 wallet at qanvault.io.
  2. Navigate to the Referrals Dashboard.
  3. The platform will automatically generate your unique referral link using your wallet address:
text
   https://qanvault.io/?ref=0xYourWalletAddress
  1. Click Copy Referral Link or use the social sharing shortcuts for Twitter/X and Telegram.

How Attribution Works#

QanVault uses a transparent, dual-layer attribution model:

01
Share Link

Share your unique referral URL (?ref=0xYourAddress) with friends and community.

02
First-Touch Attribution

When visited, the referee's browser securely stores your address in local storage.

03
On-Chain Verification

When the friend purchases tickets, your referrer address is passed into EverpotCore.

04
1:10 Bonus Tickets

For every 10 tickets purchased by your referral, you instantly receive 1 bonus ticket minted on-chain.

  1. Client-Side Capture: When a new user lands on the website with a ?ref= query parameter, their browser securely persists the referrer address in local storage.
  2. First-Touch Attribution: If a user visits multiple referral links, the first link clicked is honored to protect original content creators.
  3. On-Chain Minting: During the purchase transaction, the contract verifies the referral address and mints bonus ticket IDs directly into the referrer's portfolio.

Anti-Sybil & Fair Play Rules#

To maintain protocol integrity:

  • Self-Referral Prohibition: A wallet address cannot refer itself (buyer != referrer). Transactions attempting self-referral will execute normally but will award 0 bonus tickets.
  • Minimum Batch Threshold: Bonus tickets are awarded for full multiples of 10. Unused fractional balances accumulate toward future purchases from the same referred wallet.
  • Contract Safety: Smart contract referrers must be able to receive ERC-721 or contract-minted tickets.
