# Share & Earn: invite a friend and get free credits

Share & Earn gives free credits to you and a friend. Click **Share & Earn** on your home page or the gift icon in the desktop project header, copy your invite link, and send it. On a phone, use **Share & Earn** on your home page. Your friend gets 10 extra credits when they sign up. You get 10 credits when they publish their first website.

## Steps

1. Click **Share & Earn** in the top bar on your home page, or the gift icon in the desktop project header. On a phone, open the navigation menu, tap **Projects**, then tap **Share & Earn** in the top bar.
2. In the **Earn Bonus Credits!** dialog, click the copy button next to **Your invite link**.
3. Send the link to a friend by text, email or social media.
4. Your friend signs up through the link. The sign-up page shows that they get 10 free credits.
5. When they publish their first site, 10 credits land in your account.

## Rules

- One reward per new account. You do not get credits when the same person signs up twice.
- Credits are added to your account, not paid out as money. For cash commission, see [Become an affiliate](/docs/partners/affiliates).

## Common problems

### My friend signed up but I got nothing

The reward arrives when your friend publishes their first website, not at sign-up. Also check that they used your link and not the regular sign-up page.
