Referrals
Referral rules
Your link
Everyone on the waitlist gets one personal referral link after confirming their email. It stays with your account after launch.
Before launch: move up the line
The line is ordered by how many friends have joined with your link and confirmed their email (most first), then by when you joined (earliest first). When 3 of your friends have confirmed, your Founding Pass seat is held for 7 days on launch day, even if public seats have run out.
After launch: give 5 GB, get 5 GB
Each friend who qualifies gets you both +5 GB. A friend qualifies when all of these are true:
- they joined with your link and confirmed their email;
- they completed the ₹5 (UPI) or $1 (card) check with a payment method we haven't seen before, and 14 days have passed without a dispute;
- their pass or plan is still active, they uploaded at least one file and signed in again at least 7 days after joining;
- nothing about the referral is flagged as fake or duplicate.
Your bonus is capped at +40 GB on a Founding Pass or paid plan and +15 GB on the free plan. Friends still get their own +5 GB after you reach the cap. Referrals that don't qualify within 60 days expire. Referral bonuses end on 27 August 2027.
The Founding Leaderboard
It counts qualified friends from waitlist opening until 30 days after launch. The public board opens on launch day; showing your place on it is optional and uses an alias you choose, never your name or email, and never who you referred. The top 100 share 47.5 TB of storage for 12 months from the award. It is a race with no cap on referrals: you rank by qualified friends, you need at least 3 to enter, and each prize has its own minimum:
| Rank | Prize | Minimum qualified friends to win this prize |
|---|---|---|
| #1 | 5 TB | At least 40 |
| #2–5 | 2 TB each | At least 20 |
| #6–15 | 1 TB each | At least 10 |
| #16–40 | 500 GB each | At least 6 |
| #41–100 | 200 GB each | At least 3 |
- For the leaderboard, a qualified friend is someone who joined with your link, confirmed their email and then claimed a Founding Pass or started a paid plan. Free 5 GB sign-ups don't count.
- You rank by qualified friends, most first. There is no cap. Ties go to whoever reached the final count first.
- A prize is awarded only if its rank has reached that prize's minimum. A rank below its minimum wins nothing, and we never lower a minimum or move an unawarded prize to someone else.
- 47.5 TB is the most we can award in total, not a promise to award it. We award only what the board earns.
- After the board closes, we check every prospective winner by hand, publish provisional results and allow 7 days for appeals. Prizes are granted no earlier than 15 days after close.
- A prize replaces your Founding Pass storage if it is larger; it doesn't add to it. One person, one account, one prize.
Fair play
Self-referrals, duplicate accounts and referrals that share a payment method don't count, and we may remove bonuses or prizes earned that way. Shared Wi-Fi alone never disqualifies anyone. We never read your files to check any of this; we can't.
