When you gift Tiro to a friend, they get a discount on their first subscription payment, and you earn rewards that come off your own payment total. Send your invite link from **\[Settings]** → **\[Gift Tiro]** on web and desktop, or from **\[My Page]** → **\[Gift Tiro and get up to \$8]** in the mobile app. * **Your friend**: Signing up through your invite link gives them a one-time discount equivalent to one month of the Pro plan. It applies to their first subscription payment, so they need to start a subscription to use it. It does not extend the free trial. * **You**: You earn \$3 when your friend completes their first recording of 10 minutes or more, and \$5 seven days after their first paid payment. That's up to \$8 per person, and there's no limit on how many people you invite. ## Where can I check joined friends and my reward balance? Below the invite link on the **\[Gift Tiro]** screen, you can see how many friends completed signup and how much reward balance is currently available. * The **\[Friends joined]** card shows the number of people who completed signup through your link, not the number of invitation emails you sent. * The **\[My rewards]** card shows the reward amount currently available. Rewards are automatically applied when you start an individual plan on the web or when that plan renews, so there is no code to enter or separate application to submit. If your subscription is billed through the App Store or Play Store, the **\[My rewards]** card is locked and explains that rewards cannot be applied to subscriptions billed through the app. If you're the billing admin of an individual plan billed through an app, go to **\[Settings]** → **\[Plan management]** → **\[Change payment method]** on the web to switch. If you don't see the button, contact support. See [Switch to web billing](/en/guide/workspace/switch-to-web-billing) for the steps. In the mobile app, open **\[My Page]** and select **\[Gift Tiro and get up to \$8]** to see the same information. ## How are rewards applied to payments? When you start an individual plan on the web or the plan renews, valid rewards are automatically applied up to the payment total. If your reward balance is greater than the payment, only the amount used is deducted. The rest stays available until it expires and is automatically applied again at the next renewal. Rewards do not apply to an immediate charge caused by changing plans. Your remaining balance does not disappear. If it is still valid, it is automatically applied at the next renewal. This works the same way for rewards given to invited friends and rewards earned by inviters. ## How will I know when a reward is added? When a reward is added, a notification appears in the web and desktop sidebar. You receive one when the reward for your invited friend's first recording of at least 10 minutes is added, and another when the reward is added seven days after their first paid payment. The reward amount is shown in the notification. Select the notification to open the **\[Gift Tiro]** screen. The notification disappears after you open the screen once. ## How are gifting rewards different from credits? Gifting rewards are completely separate from credits, which are recording minutes. A reward is not recording time. It is a **balance deducted from your payment total** and is automatically applied when you start an individual plan on the web or when that plan renews. Gifting rewards do not apply to subscriptions billed through the App Store or Play Store. If you're the billing admin of an individual plan billed through an app, go to **\[Settings]** → **\[Plan management]** → **\[Change payment method]** on the web to switch. If you don't see the button, contact support. See [Switch to web billing](/en/guide/workspace/switch-to-web-billing) for the steps. A friend's signup reward is valid for 7 days from the date it is granted, while rewards earned by the inviter are valid for 1 year. The oldest rewards are used first. If a signup reward is only partly used on the first payment, the remaining amount stays usable for 35 days from that payment. People you invited before this program launched were rewarded under the previous program with 100 minutes of usage credit, so they do not earn rewards retroactively. They still count toward your number of joined invitees. For the full terms, see the [Tiro Gifting Rewards Terms](https://tiro.ooo/referral-rewards-terms). ## How to claim your invite benefit and sign up in the mobile app 1. Install the Tiro mobile app from the App Store or Google Play. 2. On the first screen, select **\[Start Recording]** to open the sign-in page. 3. On the sign-in screen, select **\[Have a referral code?]**. 4. Enter the referral code you received or paste the entire invite link. 5. Select **\[Apply]**. 6. When the benefit appears in a card, the referral code has been applied. 7. Complete signup for a new account with Google, Apple (iOS), Microsoft, or SSO. Completing signup alone does not start a paid subscription. The reward applies when you subscribe to an individual plan on the web, not when you pay through the App Store or Play Store. *** **Related pages**: [Credits](/en/guide/workspace/credits) · [Tiro plans](/en/guide/workspace/plans) · [Free trial](/en/guide/workspace/free-trial) · [Manage your subscription](/en/guide/workspace/billing-guide) This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
