Paid referral point
The recruiter receives paid referral credit only after the new player makes qualifying RSI spend. Do not buy only for a referral.

Use the Bonus Without Missing the Window
Open RSI with the referral attached
Use the button on this page. It sends you to RSI with STAR-SNP2-VKS9 in the signup URL.
Confirm before account creation
If the field is not prefilled, manually enter STAR-SNP2-VKS9 before finishing signup.
Use the 24-hour backup window
If you just made the account and forgot the code, add it inside RSI before the 24-hour grace period closes.

The direct link is the main path. Manual code entry is only a fallback.
