# Referral Program ### What is it? Rippin' Hot Summer is our new referral program to help spread the Vending Machine pack rips you know and love with friends and fellow collectors. Onboard new users to Courtyard.io, and in return you'll both get a chance to rip packs risk-free. ### **How does it work?** It's simple – every friend that signs up with your referral link gets a guaranteed $25+ buyback offer when they purchase their first $25 Vending Machine Starter Pack. For every one that does, you get the same deal. ### Do I need to buy a pack to get the guaranteed $25+ buyback offer? Yes, if you referred someone with your own link or signed up through someone's referral link, you'll need to purchase a Vending Machine starter pack to claim your guaranteed $25+ buyback offer. ### **How do I get my own referral link?** Access is being granted over the course of several seasons. If you're not part of Season 1, [join the waitlist](https://events.courtyard.io/) to request access for a future season. You'll be notified when you get enrolled. \ Learn more at [events.courtyard.io](https://events.courtyard.io/). *** *Have questions or need help?
