Why haven't I received rewards for my invites?
We take a moment to review each referral against our community standards before issuing rewards. If you've noticed a delay or absence in rewards, it could indicate that the referrals don't quite meet our quality criteria.
If someone joins from my invite and receives a coffee, will I also receive one?
Under the current referral program, you won't receive a coffee when your invitee gets one. The previous program offered this benefit, but we've updated our referral rewards. Check out the details in the previous questions for more information on the rewards you can earn.
