How do referral codes work?

Coming soon

Coming soon: everyone gets their own referral link – free trees too – made from their first name and a tree word, like mywholefamilytree.com/join/SALLY-OAK7. When a friend clicks it, your code is filled in for them, and they get 3 months extra free when they start a paid tree. For every friend who joins and pays, you get £1, $1 or €1 credit, in your friend's own currency – it goes into your own pot once their first 14 days have passed. Put it towards your own plan, or let five paying friends unlock every premium skin for good. Every tree has a family code too, which goes into the family pot. You can't use your own code. For example, Sally shares her link with her friend Dave: Dave starts a paid tree with 3 extra months, and two weeks later Sally has £1 in her pot.
