Here’s how it works: - Your referred friend gains access to a complimentary month of Proton Mail Plus. - Once they move beyond the trial and subscribe, you can accumulate credits—up to a maximum of **$90**—that can be used to offset the costs of your own Proton subscription. ### Eligibility Criteria You can refer friends only if you hold one of the following subscription plans: Proton Mail Plus, Proton Unlimited, Proton Family, or Proton Visionary. ### How to Access Your Referral Link 1. **Find Your Referral Link** - Access your referral link by navigating to your account settings on the Proton Mail website. Alternatively, if you are using the Proton Mail app on an iPhone or iPad, simply tap the hamburger menu in the top left corner and select "Refer a friend." 2. **Inform Your Friends** - Ensure that your friends use your referral link to sign up; otherwise, you won’t receive the credits for their subscription. ### Frequently Asked Questions - **How do I join the referral program?** The referral program is accessible for Proton Mail Plus, Proton Unlimited, and Visionary customers, provided your account is in good standing with no outstanding balance. - **What if my friend forgets to use my referral link?** Unfortunately, if they do not sign up using your referral link, you will not be eligible for any credits. If complications arise, please reach out to our customer support team for assistance. - **Can I refer individuals who have previously used Proton?** You can only earn credits by referring new users; those who have previously signed up will not qualify. - **How many friends can I refer?** There is no limit on the number of individuals you can refer, but the maximum credits you can earn through this program is capped at $90. - **Is it acceptable to share my referral link in public forums?** The referral program is most effective when you share your link with friends and acquaintances, rather than posting it publicly. Ensure compliance with any site guidelines you use and avoid bulk messaging or spamming. - **How can I monitor my referrals and credits?** You can track your referrals and earned rewards through your referral dashboard, or by logging in to your Proton Mail account on a browser and navigating to: Settings → Go to Settings → Refer a friend. Additionally, you’ll receive an email notification when one of your referrals subscribes to a paid plan. - **Why do I see a credit of $4.99 instead of $5?** The actual credits are calculated based on the specific pricing of the Proton Mail Plus plan, which is set at $4.99 in all supported currencies. For ease of communication, this amount is rounded to $5, but it does not affect your billing experience. - **When will my credits be applied?** Your earned credits will automatically reduce your subscription fee in the subsequent month’s billing cycle. - **Can I convert my credits into cash?** No, credits earned through this program can only be applied to your Proton Mail subscription costs. - **What happens to my credits if I switch my subscription plan?** You can refer friends while on Proton Mail Plus, Proton Unlimited, and Visionary plans. However, if you change your subscription plan, you will no longer be eligible to participate in the referral program, although you can still redeem any credits you have already earned. By participating in this program, you’re actively contributing to a community focused on privacy and security while reaping rewards for your efforts.
