  • Jump Point June Issue for Subscribers

Introducing the New Referral Program

The updated Referral Program officially goes live on July 2, 2025!

FAQ:

What happens to my current referral progress?
If you’ve referred at least one player who has purchased a game package before July 2, you’ll retain access to what we’re now calling the Legacy Ladder. You’ll be able to view it via your Account Settings, and going forward, new referrals will count toward both the Legacy and new ladders—meaning you can earn rewards on both tracks at the same time.

What happens to my current referral count?
The new leaderboard system allows you to sort by weekly, monthly, yearly, or all-time, with all-time displaying your total referrals, including those from the Legacy Ladder.

What about my Prospects (people who used my referral code but haven’t bought a package yet)?
No worries—all Prospects will carry over. You’ll still be able to view and track them from your Account Settings.

Do I need a new referral code?
Nope! If you’ve used the Referral Program before, your existing referral code will remain valid.

What if my friend forgot to use my referral code when creating their account?
We’ve added a 24-hour grace period after account creation—if they forget, they’ll now have a full day to add your code retroactively.

Are there any improvements for new players?
Yes! The starting UEC bonus has been increased from 5,000 to 50,000, giving new players a much stronger start in the ‘verse.

Did someone say MISC Raptor?!

You heard right—and no, it’s not an April Fools’ joke. The MISC Raptor is one of the legendary new rewards available on the updated ladder. While it’s been added to the reward track, it’s still in development and will be delivered at a later date. We’ll share more once it moves through our vehicle pipeline.
