Methodology — How we verify each referral code

Every code on this site has been manually tested. Below is exactly what we check, how often, and where the evidence lives. Last updated .

Verification status levels

We use specific status levels rather than a generic "verified" stamp. Each level represents a different depth of check, and our log records exactly which levels were achieved on each verification cycle.

Status levels we check per verification cycle
Status What it means
Link reachable The exchange referral URL returns 200 OK
Code pre-filled Our code appears pre-filled in the Referral ID field when clicking through
Code accepted in signup flow The Binance signup form accepts the code without error
Terms checked We read Binance's current Referral Program terms on the verification date
Fee schedule checked We read Binance's current fee schedule on the verification date
Cashback credited observed A real account using the code received cashback after live trading

"Verified" without a specific status means all of the above except Cashback credited observed, which requires repeated live trading and is performed quarterly, not weekly.

Verification checklist (5 steps)

  1. Open the exchange's official referral or invite URL — currently accounts.binance.com/register for new signups (Referral Program terms: Binance Referral Program)
  2. Apply the code at signup or via the Binance invite page for existing-but-unverified accounts
  3. Check the current Binance Referral Program terms
  4. Check the current fee schedule and confirm rates haven't moved
  5. Record the verification date, tested URL, terms URL, fee schedule URL, status levels achieved, and evidence retained

All citations use followed links (rel="noopener noreferrer") so we pass editorial authority to Binance's official pages. Only our affiliate signup links use rel="sponsored nofollow noopener noreferrer".

Verification cadence

  • Weekly for the main Binance money page: Link reachable, Code pre-filled, Code accepted, Terms checked
  • Monthly for country variants and the how-to article
  • Quarterly for Cashback credited observed (full live-account re-test)
  • Immediately when Binance announces any Referral Program change

Corrections policy

Found an error? Email corrections@cryptorefcodes.com. We aim to review correction reports within 48 hours. Material corrections are dated and noted on the affected page and in this log.

Invalid-code policy: If a verified code subsequently fails verification, we immediately remove signup CTAs from affected pages, mark the log entry failed, and restore only after a re-test passes.

No silent edits. Every material change is logged with the date so readers can see what changed and when.

What we don't do

  • Publish prices, predictions, or "best coin" lists
  • Accept boosted commissions in exchange for biased recommendations
  • Add a code without testing it
  • Fake verification dates ("Last verified today" only appears if we actually verified today)
  • Promote VPN use to bypass exchange geographic restrictions
  • Use AI-generated author photos or fabricated personas — see About
