Invite friends: codes, links and ⚡ rewards
Anyone can issue personal invite codes. Your friend gets ⚡ right after signing in with your code, and you get yours when they make their first payment. The more friends pay, the bigger the reward and the more codes you can issue.
- Profile menu, Invite friends, then Issue code. Every code has a link you can share.
- Your friend gets 40 ⚡ ($1) right after applying the code, once per account - on top of the welcome 50 ⚡.
- You get ⚡ only when the invited friend makes a first payment: 80 ⚡ for the 1st and 2nd paying friend, 120 ⚡ for the 3rd to 5th, 200 ⚡ for the 6th onward.
- One code is one invitation. How many codes you can issue depends on how many friends you brought: 2, 4, 8 or 15.
- A code can be applied during the first 14 days after sign-up and only once; your own code does not work.
1How to invite a friend
- Open Invite friends
Click your avatar in the left panel and choose Invite friends. A page opens inside Studio (address gibrid.ai/provideo/invite).
- Click Issue code
The Issue code button creates a new 8-character code (letters and digits without look-alikes such as O/0 and I/1). It appears in the list at once marked "waiting".
- Send it to your friend
Every code has two buttons: Copy copies the link, Share opens the system share window (where there is none, it just copies). The link looks like gibrid.ai/api/invites/go/YOURCODE.
- Your friend signs up
They open the link and the site remembers the code in the browser for 30 days. After signing up by any method (email, Google, Apple, Telegram) the code is applied automatically. If there is no link, your friend can type the code in: the same page has an "I have a code" field and an Apply button.
In the list each code says "waiting" or "used" and "whoever joins will get 40 tokens". A used code is pointless to send, so its buttons are disabled.
2How many ⚡ your friend and you get
The rate is the same everywhere: 40 ⚡ = $1. The page shows your own numbers in a sentence: "Your friend gets 40 ⚡ right after signing in, and you get N ⚡ when they make their first payment."
| Who | When | How much |
|---|---|---|
| Your friend | Right after applying the code | 40 ⚡ ($1), once per account |
| You - for the 1st and 2nd paying friend | When the friend makes a first payment | 80 ⚡ ($2) for each |
| You - for the 3rd, 4th and 5th | Same | 120 ⚡ ($3) for each |
| You - for the 6th and later | Same | 200 ⚡ ($5) for each |
- The reward level depends on the number of friends who paid, not on those who just signed up. At the top of the page you see "+N ⚡ for each who pays" - the reward for the next one.
- What counts as a first payment: any successful paid top-up or plan purchase on the site (card via Stripe, USDT via CryptoBot, Telegram Stars) and a purchase in the Apple app. There is no minimum amount.
- The reward does not arrive instantly: the check runs every 10 minutes. Credited ⚡ show up in the balance at once.
- On the higher levels days of a plan may be added to the ⚡: the current settings give 3 days for the 3rd to 5th paying friend and 7 days from the 6th. If you have no paid plan, Basic is switched on for those days; if you have one, it is extended.
- Your friends can get the same 3 or 7 days if the code was issued when you had already brought 3 or 6 people.
3How many codes you can issue
The limit counts issued codes, not used ones, so nobody can issue a hundred "just in case". It grows as friends sign in with your codes:
| Friends brought | Codes you can issue |
|---|---|
| 0 | 2 |
| 1-2 | 4 |
| 3-5 | 8 |
| 6 or more | 15 |
At the top of the page there are three counters: "joined", "codes left" and "+N ⚡ for each who pays". The hint "N more - and your codes become: M" shows how many friends are left until the next level. When the codes run out, the button turns into "No codes left".
4Rules and abuse protection
- A code is applied once per account and only in the first 14 days after sign-up. Later you get a message that the code cannot be applied.
- You cannot apply your own code, and an account cannot apply a second code.
- The friend bonus is capped: at most two such credits per day from one IP address.
- Your rewards are capped too: at most three credits per day.
- A code is single-use: once used, it is closed.
- A refund of the first payment within 14 days revokes the reward.
The limit numbers are taken from the server settings as of 16 October 2026 and may be changed.
5Invites and the partner programme are different things
Invite friends gives ⚡ to your balance and is open to everyone. The partner programme is separate: you apply, get a personal link and receive a share of your referrals' payments in dollars. The terms are on gibrid.ai/partners. The /ref command in the Telegram bot belongs to it, not to the codes in this article.
?FAQ
How much does my friend get?
40 ⚡ ($1), once per account, right after the code is applied. It comes on top of the welcome 50 ⚡ everyone gets at sign-up (for email accounts, after the address is verified).
When do I get my reward?
When the invited friend makes their first successful payment, of any amount. The check runs every 10 minutes, so the reward arrives within a few minutes of the payment. There is no reward for a friend merely signing up.
Why has the reward not arrived?
Possible reasons: the friend has not paid yet; they got the first payment refunded within 14 days; you reached the daily credit limit; the friend never applied the code. If none fits, write to support.
Does my friend need to verify their email?
Not for the code bonus - the 40 ⚡ arrive as soon as the code is applied. The welcome 50 ⚡ for accounts that sign in with email are credited after the address is verified.
Why is there no line for the reward in my history?
The invite bonus is written to a separate log, so Billing, History may not show a row. Look at your balance: the ⚡ are added at once.
Can I invite myself with a second account?
No: your own code is not accepted, and repeated sign-ups from one IP address quickly run into the daily limits. Your reward comes only for a genuine first payment.
