The flow through which users earn rewards for introducing new members to the app.

## Items

### Unique referral link or code
A personalised URL or code that tracks sign-ups back to the referring user that can be copied in one tap

### Reward explanation
A clear statement of what the referring user earns and what the new user receives, shown before the user decides whether to share

_Tip: Showing both sides ('Give a friend one month free, get one month free yourself') is useful_

### Share sheet integration
A button that opens the native share sheet pre-loaded with the referral link and a suggested message

_Tip: Pre-fill the message with something that helps the narrative, rather than just a standalone link_

### Channel shortcuts
Direct share paths for high-performing channels (messaging, email) alongside the generic share sheet

### Referral status list
A view showing who the user has referred, whether each person has signed up, and whether the reward condition has been met

### Reward progress
A clear display of pending and confirmed rewards, and  for tiered programmes, progress toward the next milestone

### Terms and eligibility
A concise summary of the conditions under which a referral counts and a reward is earned

_Tip: Surface the key conditions inline e.g.who qualifies, any limit on total rewards_

### Empty state
The state of the referral screen before the user has made any referrals, with a clear prompt to begin sharing
