# Referral Program
The referral program is structured as follows:
* 20% of trading fees up to $100,000 in aggregate trading volume from all your referred users
* 30% of trading fees thereafter
Users you refer will earn you referral fees forever. There is no expiration date and no limit to how much you can earn. Fees are earned and claimable instantly.
The OnlyApes referral program is fully onchain and accessible to anyone.
## How to Use the Referral Program
You can create a referral code by going to the profile page indicated by the following icon: 
On the profile page you will see the "Referral" button as indicated in the image below.
From here, you can create a unique referral code to register for the program.
After creating a unique referral code, your code will be part of the URL for every page on the site. That means you can link directly to a token page.
A referred user becomes yours after making their first trade.
Some ways you can use this:
* Create or share a coin on OnlyApes after creating a referral code. Then, earn fees even when people trade other coins!
* Simply keep a link to the site with your referral code in the URL in your social media bios and posts
