GitHub referral codes

GitHub referral codes (and referral links) are codes that existing GitHub customers share with friends. When you sign up or buy with it, you usually get a reward, and the person who shared it may get one too. What you receive depends on GitHub's current program, and the brand's own terms always apply.

1. Copy the referral code or open the referral link. 2. Sign up for a new GitHub account. 3. Enter the code during sign-up, if the brand asks for one. 4. Complete the qualifying steps described in the offer.

New customers only. Terms set by the brand apply.

RefCodes doesn't test codes with GitHub. Members confirm a code after using it or report a problem, and every code shows when it was last confirmed. Codes with repeated problem reports are removed automatically.

Check the "last confirmed" date on the code and the community confirmations next to it. A recent confirmation is the best sign. If a code fails for you, report it so others don't waste time.

Referral programs usually reward one code per new account, so pick one before you sign up. GitHub's own terms decide.

Create a free RefCodes account, open your dashboard and add your GitHub code or referral link. Each member can list one live code per brand. Other members then confirm whether it works, which builds trust in your code.
