Your friend's first purchase, with your code.
For you when a friend signs up. It shows as pending and is paid once they confirm their email or buy.
Until Sat 7 Nov: earn 1 point for every $1 your friend pays. Points arrive 14 days after their purchase.
Spend points on a course ($250), a transcript ($20), a month of full access or Lifetime access ($599).
Points are spent at UPI Study only; they are never cash and cannot be transferred. Signup points stop at $600 per account for life (the price of Lifetime access); points from purchases have no limit, and one order earns at most 60 — except until Sat 7 Nov, when it earns 1 point for every $1 your friend pays, arriving 14 days after the purchase. A friend's first paid order earns; renewals of the same subscription do not. Orders with an affiliate code, under-18 accounts, a second account on the same device, and made-up accounts earn nothing. Your balance, code and rewards are in the points panel on your Student Dashboard. Questions? Ask Athena on this page.
