How does the affiliate program work?

Written by 800 .HL

The Hyperbeat affiliate program pays you a share of the real revenue your referrals generate. For every person who signs up with your code, you earn a cut of two streams:

  1. Their trading revenue - a share of the trading fees their volume generates (volume × 2.5 bps)

  2. Their spending cashback - a share of the cashback they earn on card spend

Refer a trader and you earn from their volume. Refer a spender and you earn from their cashback. Refer someone who does both, and you earn from both — every month, for as long as they're active.

Your referrals keep 100% of their own cashback. Your commission is paid out of Hyperbeat's revenue, not out of their rewards.

Your commission rate

Your rate is the same across both streams, and it climbs with the combined rolling 30-day trading volume of everyone you've referred:

Network trading volume (30d)

Your commission

Under $1M

5%

$1M – $10M

8%

$10M+

12%

  • The tier is based on your whole network's aggregate volume, not any single referral - ten referees trading $1M each puts you at the 12% tier.

  • It uses a rolling 30-day window and updates automatically in both directions, just like the cashback tiers.

  • The rate applies per referee to both streams: their trading revenue and their cashback.

How referrals link to you

  • Share your referral link or code from the Affiliate page (or the Rewards page).

  • Anyone who signs up with your code is permanently linked to your account — you keep earning from their activity for as long as they use Hyperbeat.

  • You can customize your code (3–20 characters; letters, numbers, and hyphens) with "Edit referral code." Existing links with your old code keep working until you change it.

A worked example

Say one of your referees trades $10M a month and spends enough to earn about $960 in monthly cashback. Your network is past $1M in 30-day volume, so you're at the 8% tier:

Stream

Your 8% cut

Trading revenue ($10M × 2.5 bps)

$2,500

$200

Spending cashback

$960

$77

Total per month

$277

That's from a single active referee - and every referee you add pushes your network volume (and potentially your tier) higher.

Use Calculate commissions on the Affiliate page to model your own numbers: enter your network's 30-day trading volume and cashback, and it projects your daily, monthly, and yearly earnings at your tier.

Tracking your network

The Affiliate dashboard shows:

  • Your referral code, commission rate, and progress along the ladder

  • Earnings this month and lifetime

  • Your network's trading volume and cashback over time (30/60/90 days, all time)

  • A per-referral table with each referee's status and earnings

What changed from the old referral program?

The previous program shared treasury yield based on your referred friends' balances, across five tiers (Starter → Legend). That model is fully retired:

  • Yield share is gone. You now earn a share of trading revenue and cashback — real activity, not balances.

  • The five balance tiers are replaced by the three-step volume ladder (5% → 8% → 12%).

  • The referee sign-up bonus is removed. Referrals are rewarded through the revenue share instead.

  • Attribution still stands: friends who signed up with your code remain linked to you and count toward the new program.

FAQ

Does my referral give anything up by using my code?

No. They keep their full cashback and pay nothing extra. Your commission comes out of Hyperbeat's share of the revenue their activity generates.

Do my existing referrals from the old program carry over?

Yes. Referral attribution is permanent — everyone who signed up with your code counts toward your network under the new program.

When do I move up (or down) the ladder?

Continuously. Your tier follows your network's rolling 30-day trading volume, so it rises as your network trades more and can fall if volume tails off. There's no reset date and nothing to claim.

Is the commission rate different for the two streams?

No - one rate, applied to both. At the 8% tier you earn 8% of each referee's trading revenue and 8% of their cashback.

Which of my referee's activity counts?

Their trading volume on the Hyperbeat trade page (which generates the 2.5 bps fee revenue) and the cashback they earn on card spend. Plain deposits or balances don't generate commission by themselves anymore.

Is there a limit to how many people I can refer, or how much I can earn?

No. Earnings scale with your network's activity, and the program is self-funding by design - your cut is always a slice of revenue your referees actually generated.

Can I refer myself or people in my household?

One account per person applies as usual. Self-referrals and circumventing accounts are against the terms and can void commissions.

How do I estimate my potential earnings?

Open Calculate commissions on the Affiliate page — pick a network volume and cashback level, and it shows daily, monthly, and yearly projections at the corresponding tier.

Where do my commissions show up?

On the Affiliate dashboard, alongside your network stats. Lifetime and monthly earnings are shown at the top of the page.
