Affiliate code vs referral code

✓ Checked against official sources 2026-11-07
Referral codeA code regular users share to invite friends. It may give a sign-up reward, but usually no ongoing fee discount. What the referrer earns is not a discount for the new user.
Affiliate codeA code from an official partner contracted with the exchange. Depending on the partner, it may include fee discounts or cashback.
90-day discount vs ongoing cashbackA discount for a limited period is different from cashback paid on every trade. For long-term futures traders, cashback can be larger.
