BasedApp will be releasing the first ever affiliate program of its kind to create the most rewarding environment for early adopters of our platform.
Although we first released a version of affiliate program last week, we took into account many of your feedback and we made a new revision to the affiliate program. The new affiliate program will now include rebates, multi-tier affiliate fees and partner program. We are also reducing the requirement to get an affiliate code so you can start referring other traders to use BasedApp!
Path to Billions
Crypto is entering a new phase. In the past month, The U.S. Senate passed the GENIUS Act, a landmark bill formally legitimizing US dollar–pegged stablecoins, and TradFi giants like Robinhood are moving in. The line between DeFi and TradFi is blurring fast. And yet for all this momentum, the crypto space still lacks serious, consumer-first utility applications that are purpose-built to compete with traditional finance, not just mimic it. The crypto zeitgeist is no longer about building general-purpose chains but rather real, usable products that work out of the box and feel better than their TradFi counterparts. That’s where BasedApp comes in.
At BasedApp, we are building the ultimate crypto-finance bridge, letting users:
- Trade on Hyperliquid - a decentralised exchange protocol
- Spend instantly with a Visa debit card
- On-off ramp with bank accounts (Coming soon)
- Earn through a powerful affiliate network (the first of its kind in Crypto)
All on a single app across web and mobile. We've built one of the best mobile apps on Hyperliquid today, and we are not slowing down.
To bring this to the world, we’re not spending on ads or partnerships, rather, we’re opening the doors for anyone to participate in BasedApp’s success through the BasedApp Affiliate Program. We’ve designed a generous, multi-tier affiliate program, not as a marketing gimmick, but as a core part of our product strategy to grow to the next billion users.
Our refreshed multi-tier Affiliate System
You will get to earn affiliate fees for up to 3-degrees of your connections. This means that anybody who you refer, has the ability to refer other users, through which you get to earn affiliate fees for this network of users that you onboard. Best of all, this will be tracked for the lifetime of all users that you manage to onboard. Not sure what this means? See an example diagram below of what to expect:

The tier distribution is as follows:
- T1: 60% of BasedApp fees
- T2: 9% of BasedApp fees -> Boostable to 12%
- T3: 3% of BasedApp fees -> Boostable to 4%
By using your affiliate code, your referred users will receive:
- 2,000 XP which counts towards future TGE
- 10% trading rebates on the fees. Distributions will be made on the 3rd day of each month, based on trading volumes calculated for the previous calendar month
How do I get my affiliate code?
When you sign up on BasedApp and earn 5,000 XP (lowered from 50,000 XP from last week), you should be able to see a screen where you can create your own affiliate code. Choose any name you like! As long as you keep it below 12 characters without special symbols.
BasedApp Partners
Based Partners is our special program that makes the affiliate program even more rewarding. To get into the Based Partners program, either accumulate at least $5M in referred volume or be invited by the team.
Once you are on the program, you will be able to:
- Earn affiliate fees at no additional cost to your users
- A coupon applied to your affiliates to boost their earnings from their referrals. T2 referrals boosted from 9% to 12%. T3 referrals boosted from 3% to 4%.

- Access to discount codes for our BasedApp card program for your followers
