The Referral Fee-Share Engine
The 1Edge referral system pays you a flat 25% of the trading fees generated by every wallet you refer — for as long as they keep trading, paid natively in SOL.
It is one of two reward streams on 1Edge. This one pays you on other people's activity; the tier system rebates fees on your own trading. The two stack.
How it works
- Get verified. Every referrer is a verified human with a Proof of Humanity profile.
- Share your unique link. Each account has a unique referral link tied to its wallet.
- They trade, you earn. When a referred wallet trades anywhere on 1Edge, 25% of the trading fees their activity generates is routed to you.
- Paid in SOL, instantly. Rewards are paid natively in SOL — no token to claim, no conversion.
ℹ️ For as long as they trade. Referral fee-share isn't a one-time signup bonus. It's an ongoing share of every fee a referred wallet generates over its entire lifetime on the platform.
What counts
- Unique links are tracked per referrer wallet, so every referred wallet is attributed to exactly one account.
- Rewards accrue from trading fees generated by referred wallets.
- Payouts are made in SOL.
How it stacks with tiers
Your two reward streams are independent and additive:
| Reward stream | Paid on | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Referral fee-share | 25% of referred wallets' trading fees | This page |
| Tier rebate | 10%–30% of your own trading fees | Tier Matrix |
The more humans you bring to 1Edge, the more your referral income grows — and referrals are one of the two ways to climb the tier ladder (the other being your own trading volume). Building a referral network therefore compounds: it pays you directly in SOL and pushes you toward higher personal rebates.
✅ The compounding play: refer active humans → earn 25% of their fees → hit referral milestones → climb tiers → earn higher rebates on your own trading. Every referral feeds both streams.
Tier milestones via referrals

- Elite — 250 active referrals (or 500 SOL volume)
- Apex — 1,000 active referrals (or 2,000 SOL volume)
- Seed (Founding) — be one of the first 50 wallets to reach 25 referrals
