The Monthly Competition is an opportunity for you to earn a great amount of money; a rolling contest that lets top referrers split a growing cash pool. Below you’ll find everything you need to know about how it starts, how the leaderboard works, and what happens when you place in the money.
What is the Monthly Competition?
Every calendar month, all users on the platform who paid race to see who can get the most successful referrals. Those referral counts are the only metric that matters: the higher your total by the end of the month, the higher you climb on the leaderboard and the larger your portion of the prize pool.
The Timing Cycle
At 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the first day of each month, last month’s competition locks, payouts are finalized, and a brand-new leaderboard opens. Nothing carries over, everyone starts fresh at zero, giving newcomers and seasoned referrers the same clean slate.
How Scoring Works
• Successful referrals (friends who join and pay) are counted in real time.
• Your live total determines your rank against every other user.
• The platform shows you not only your current position but also how many referrals you need to overtake the user directly ahead of you (visible up to rank 1,000).
Prize Pool & Payout Structure
The cash pool grows all month long, funded by overall platform success. Once the month ends:
Percentages
Each winning place receives a predefined portion of that pool, and those percentages can change from month to month.
Number of Paid Places
Some months reward the top 15, others the top 50; the exact cutoff is visible in the dashboard at the start of every cycle. Currently, the top 1,000 users are ranked but not all will get a prize; its for visual purposes.
Automatic Credit
When results are finalized, your prize moves straight into your unclaimed earnings. From there, claim it just like your standard $2 referral rewards (see the claiming help article for more information).
Live Leaderboard & Historical Results
Throughout the month you can visit the Competition Dashboard to see:
• Each prize-earning position and its current cash value.
• Public usernames of the leaders in those positions.
• Your own rank and the referral gap to the spot ahead of you (if you are ranked).
