# Referrals

Referrals are now official live on 2nd October 2024.

#### Introduction

Referrals allow Stream to onboard the masses in web3 and web2 through the word of mouth of users who are already on Stream. In return, we reward users with experience points (XP) for each successful referrals of Fan and Creator.

#### Experience Points (XP) Distribution

Creators are the bedrock of Stream and without them, there will be no Stream. Of course, we also need Fans on Stream to provide value for Creators and power the next attention economy!

As such, the following is the breakdown of referral points

* Referring a Creator: 500XP 
* Referring a Fan: 200XP

{% hint style="info" %}
Note that for every Stream user, there is a maximum cap of 60K Experience Points (XP) that you can attain from referrals. That works out to around 120 Creators or 300 Fans, if you ever reach that quota, please reach out to us
{% endhint %}

To prevent sybil, we have introduced a set of tasks that will be required for every stream account to complete in order to be considered as an "eligible" fan and trigger the reward for XP to the referrer.\

We will not be publicly sharing the steps needed but they are very simple actions that anyone who have experienced a Streamdrop would have completed. &#x20;
