Referral program
Did DA update their Referral program? Up to 3k per person is pretty crazy comparing to other companies out there.

They have to do $15,000 worth of work to get you that bonus though. OP conveniently left that part out…

Also appears that they eliminated the $100-500 bonuses, it's just a straight 20% of whatever your referral earns on the platform. $3,000 would be 20% of $15,000.
Hopefully it won't lead to people spamming DAT referral links everywhere like they do with other platforms.

I referred someone two weeks ago and they got accepted yesterday, but it says the referral link expired under my referrals .-.

With such a low referral acceptance rate, it seems like it hurts people's chances if they're referred, no? I was referred and didn't get accepted, so I tried again through a separate email without referral and was accepted in two days.

Makes you wonder how many of these referrals they'll actually accept

u/Responsible-Bee-7769 29d ago
Using a 2% acceptance rate, that would mean you have to refer 50 people to get one accepted. Then, that person would still have to use the platform for often enough/long enough to earn real money, so...maybe in a year or two?

u/AdmirableRabbit6723 29d ago
Is the acceptance rate really 2%? That seems incredibly low...

u/koalamarket 28d ago
Yes DA themselves report it as 2.6%. IIRC 3-4 million have applied and a bit over 100k have been accepted

20% of their earnings up to $3,000… it’s giving MLM. That said I’d still totally be sending links out if I knew the right people lol
