OnePlus launches referral program so you can get money off a OnePlus 5 and accessories

We know that the OnePlus 3T is being discontinued as the launch of the OnePlus 5 is just around the corner. Ahead of the launch, the company behind the "flagship killer" has unveiled a referral program that lets its customers earn points to get money off phones and accessories.

The referral program is open to "anyone who's ever bought a OnePlus smartphone past, present, or future." You just need to apply for your unique referral code, and then encourage people to use it to make their OnePlus purchases to earn you points and money off.

Working much like any other affiliate linking system, you just need to share your unique referral code with friends, family, and anyone else you know who is making a OnePlus purchase. Using your link will earn the purchaser money off accessories, and you points which can later be translated into money off a wide range of OnePlus products.

OnePlus announced the arrival of the referral program in its community forums:

Once you've got a link, just share it with someone interested in buying a OnePlus device and wait for them to hit the order button. If your friend uses your link to purchase a OnePlus smartphone, they'll receive $20 -- or an equivalent amount in your local currency -- off on an accessory of their choosing. No more than 30 days later, we’ll drop 100 referral points in your referral hub.

So, what can you spend these points on? Well, that referral hub we mentioned earlier is constantly going to be updated with new stuff to get. Whether it be a cool accessory, a discount on a new phone, or exclusive OnePlus gear, the hub will always be chock-full of great free items for you to grab.

You can sign up for the referral program on the OnePlus website.
