- Unique 24-hour visit counting: When someone visits your referral link, our system counts unique visits per IP address once every 24 hours. Repeated page refreshes from the same IP do not inflate your click numbers.
- 30-day browser attribution cookie: A secure
HttpOnlytracking cookie is stored in the visitor's browser for 30 days. Even if they browse other pages or return days later to register, the signup is attributed to your account. - All referred accounts are visible immediately: As soon as a referred visitor registers, even if they start on the Free plan, they appear in your Referred users table with a masked email for privacy. You can clearly see how many Free and upgraded accounts you generated.
- Lifetime account attribution: Once a referred user signs up under your link, they remain permanently linked to your affiliate account. If they upgrade weeks or months later, your commission is still recorded automatically.
