# Affiliate Program

## Program Features

### 1. Referral Rewards

Description: Project founder can set a referral reward percentage, typically up to 5% of the hard-cap. This provides a clear and substantial incentive for users to refer new investors.

Example: For instance, if a project sets a 5% referral reward and the fair launch raises 1000 TON, the total reward pool would be 50 TON. This means that affiliates will share 50 TON proportionally based on their contribution.

### 2. Reward Distribution

Proportional Distribution: Rewards are distributed based on the referred buy volume, ensuring fairness and transparency. Each affiliate's share of the reward pool is directly proportional to the amount they have contributed to the total buy volume.

### 3. Program Activation

During Presale Creation: Project owners can enable the affiliate program during the creation of their presale pool. This option is seamlessly integrated into the presale setup process.

Setting Referral Percentage: Owners can set the referral percentage based on their marketing strategy and budget. The system provides flexibility to adjust this percentage as needed.

### 4. Claiming Rewards

Monitoring Contributions: Affiliates can monitor their referral contributions in real-time through a dedicated dashboard. This transparency helps build trust and encourages active participation.

Claim Process: Rewards can be claimed once the presale is complete and the hard-cap is achieved. The platform ensures a smooth and straightforward claiming process, with clear instructions and minimal steps.
