Visit our Competitions & Promotions page to stay updated on all ongoing and upcoming competitions at VALR.
At VALR, we believe in rewarding our community. That’s why we’re launching VALR’s Referral Rush, a limited-time campaign where you can earn 5 USDT for every friend you refer, up to 50 USDT every 6 hours.
Key Details
From 9 to 13 April 2025, you can earn your share of a 5,000 USDT reward pool simply by inviting friends to join VALR.
To keep things interesting, the total reward pool is split into 20 rounds of 250 USDT each, with a new reward round starting every 6 hours.
Rewards in each round aren’t guaranteed and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, so the earlier your referral/s signs up on VALR, the better your chances of earning.
You can find full details (including round times and eligibility) in the terms and conditions below.
How to Participate
If You’re Referring Friends:
Log in to your VALR account (or sign up here if you’re new).
Ensure your account is fully verified.
Share your unique referral code with friends.
Your friends must sign up and complete verification during the campaign period.
Each time a friend signs up and verifies, you’ll be eligible for a reward (if they sign up within an active 6-hour reward window) and the reward pool hasn’t been fully claimed yet. These reward windows reset every 6 hours from 9 April to 13 April 2025.
In addition to campaign rewards, you’ll continue to benefit by earning up to 30% commission on your referrals’ trading fees over the long term.
If You’re a Newly Referred User:
If you’ve been invited to VALR by a friend, here’s how you can earn crypto rewards:
Sign up using their referral code between 9 and 13 April 2025.
Complete full account verification before the campaign ends.
Once verified, you’ll be automatically entered into a random draw. After the campaign, 250 newly referred users will be randomly selected to each receive $5 in crypto.
Please note: This is a random selection. Receiving a reward is not guaranteed.
