Ask How does BMF.io handle fake referrals or inactive ones?

[jadine sanayo]

Referral programs are a popular way for online communities to grow, as members invite others to join and get rewarded when new users participate. However, some platforms face issues with fake sign-ups or inactive referrals where people create extra accounts just to claim bonuses. Since the BMF.io Publisher Program gives rewards for each referred member who becomes active, it is important to know how the system filters out fake or inactive referrals. If this is not managed well, it could create unfair advantages for some while reducing value for genuine users. What measures are in place at BMF.io to deal with these situations and ensure referrals are legitimate?

Basically, you only get credit for someone you refer if they actually sign up and do stuff like post at least 100 messages. Just having someone join without being active probably won't get you the bonus. They also stress that each person should have only one account, so they're trying to stop fake or duplicate sign-ups. In other words, if someone joins your link but just lurks around or you try to game the system with fake accounts, it's likely not going to count.
