Referrals
Referral links, how referral credit is earned, how much is earned and how it is redeemed as Nexus plan time.
Every constant-k account has a referral link. A paid sign-up through that link earns the referrer Nexus plan time.
Referral link
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Location | My Account page, Referrals section |
| Format | https://www.constant-k.com/r/<code> |
| Code | 12 characters, lowercase letters and digits |
| Destination | The constant-k home page |
| Cookie lifetime | 30 days from the click |
| Repeat clicks | The most recent referral link clicked replaces any earlier one |
The click attaches to an account when the visitor signs up or logs in within the 30 days. A visitor who is already logged in is attached at the moment of the click.
Earning conditions
Credit is earned when all of these are true:
- The referred account pays for an Operator, Blade Runner or Nexus plan, by card or by crypto.
- The payment is the referred account's first paid subscription. A free trial that converts to a paid plan counts as the first payment.
- The referred account is not the referrer's own account.
- The referred account has not earned credit for any referrer before.
No credit is earned for:
| Case | Reason |
|---|---|
| An account that already had a paid subscription | Renewals, upgrades and re-subscriptions are not new sign-ups |
| Free plan and free trials | No payment |
| ShredQuasar purchases | Not part of the referral program |
| A second payment by the same referred account | One credit per referred account |
Credit is added to the referrer's balance when the payment is received and the plan activates. The Referral History table on the My Account page lists each credit.
Credit amount
Credit is Nexus plan time, in days:
credit days = (list price of the plan and billing cycle bought ÷ Nexus monthly list price) × 30- The calculation uses list prices on the day of the payment, from Plans and limits.
- Discounts, coupons, Rewards Codes and Discount Codes used by the referred account do not reduce the credit.
- Balances under 1 day are shown in hours.
| Referred plan | Credit |
|---|---|
| Nexus, monthly | 30 days |
| Nexus, annual | 300 days |
| Operator or Blade Runner | Proportional to the plan's price, from the formula above |
Redemption
The Redeem button in the Referral Nexus Credit section converts the whole balance into Nexus plan time. Partial redemption is not available. Redeemed time does not renew.
| Plan at redemption | Result |
|---|---|
| No active plan | Nexus starts immediately and runs for the credited time |
| Crypto Operator or Blade Runner plan | Nexus starts immediately. The crypto plan is paused for the credited time, then resumes with the same time left |
| Crypto Nexus plan | The credited time is added after the current paid period ends |
| Card plan with auto-renewal off | Nexus time starts when the current paid period ends |
| Card Operator or Blade Runner plan with auto-renewal on | Nexus starts immediately. At the end of the credited time, the account returns to its card plan. Card billing continues unchanged |
| Card Nexus plan with auto-renewal on | Redemption is blocked. After auto-renewal is turned off in Manage Stripe, the credit can be redeemed and starts when the current paid period ends |
Card plans are not refunded, paused or extended by a redemption.
