How Ranking Works

Every store page is ordered by the same rules:

1. Team Pick. When the site's owner has a referral for the store, it's shown first, in its own spot labeled Team. When more than one Team member has one, each visit picks one at random, with equal chances, and shows only that one. It doesn't take a place among members' referrals.
2. New referrals. A referral is marked New for 24 hours after it goes live, and New referrals come first among members, newest first. Every new share gets its day at the top until a newer one arrives.
3. Everyone else, by Sender Level. After its first day, a referral is placed by its sharer's Sender Level, highest first. Between sharers at the same level, the newer referral comes first.

A referral's share date never changes, and deleting a referral blocks sharing that same code or link at the store for 30 days, so it can't be made New again. Team referrals are never New, so Team accounts can delete and share again freely.

Following. If you're signed in, referrals from members you follow come first among members for you, marked with a star. That changes only what you see, not the order anyone else sees or anyone's level.

We don't use votes.

How Referrals Are Checked

Nobody reviews shares by hand, so the same rules apply to everyone. A shared referral goes live as soon as it passes automatic checks: the code or link matches the store's own referral format, the link goes directly to the store and reaches a referral page rather than its home page, and nobody else has shared it. Crypto, gambling and prediction-market stores also need Sender Level 4 and two live referrals at other stores.

• Broken links. We check live links regularly. A link that fails twice in a row is hidden, then checked again daily. It comes back if it works within 7 days, and is removed if it doesn't.
• Reports. Any signed-in member can report a referral. Three reports from accounts at least 7 days old hide it, and it's removed 14 days later.
• New members. Until one of your referrals has been live for 30 days, a single failed check or a single report from an established account is enough to hide it.
• Removals. A removed code or link can't be shared at that store again for 30 days. Two removals within 90 days suspend the account.

Sender Level

Sender Level is a member's standing on the site. Points are worked out once a day from what they've done, and the same rules apply to every account, including Team. Points can't be bought.

• +30 points for each live referral, up to 10.
• +10 points for each referral that went live in the last 90 days, up to 5.
• +1 point for each live referral, every week it stays live, with no limit.
• +1 point for every 3 days since you joined, up to 60.
• −25 points for each rejected or removed referral.

Levels have no top. Level 1 starts at 0 points and Level 2 at 20, and each level after that takes 20 points more than the one before: Level 3 at 60, Level 4 at 120, Level 5 at 200, and so on.
