Quick Answer
The TP Play referral program pays you when friends join and deposit. Share your 12-digit invite code, and when a friend deposits within 7 days, you earn ₹10 to ₹50. The maximum per account is ₹10,000. The referral tree also pays rebates on turnover from up to 6 levels down, creating passive income from your network. This is the only earning stream on the platform that does not require gameplay.
Why the Referral Program Is Different
Every other earning method on TP Play involves risk. Colour prediction, Aviator, Slots, and K3 all carry a 10% to 20% house edge. Referral commissions do not. They pay based on the deposit activity of your invited friends — a behaviour that is more predictable than gameplay outcomes.
In 90 days of testing, I invited 42 friends to register with code 148751812078. Thirty-one completed the qualifying deposit within the 7-day window. The total referral income was ₹1,340, plus passive rebate income from their ongoing turnover. That is more than the net result of my gameplay sessions over the same period.
How the Program Works at a Glance
| Element | Detail |
|---|---|
| Personal invite code | 12-digit unique code, visible in Agency section |
| Invitation link | Shareable URL that pre-fills the code on registration |
| Bonus per referral | ₹10 to ₹50, based on friend's first deposit |
| Maximum direct earning | ₹10,000 per account |
| 7-day window | Friend must deposit within 7 days of registering |
| Rebate tree depth | 6 levels down |
Referral Bonus Tiers – Full Structure
The bonus amount is set by the friend's first deposit size and their turnover. Four base tiers cover the ₹100 to ₹1,000 range.
| Friend's First Deposit | Friend's Turnover | Your Bonus |
|---|---|---|
| ₹100 to ₹199 | ₹500 or more | ₹10 |
| ₹200 to ₹299 | ₹1,000 or more | ₹20 |
| ₹300 to ₹499 | ₹1,500 or more | ₹30 |
| ₹500 to ₹999 | Higher threshold | ₹50 |
| ₹1,000 and above | Progressive tiers | Up to ₹10,000 maximum |
How Bonus Credits
Both conditions must be met before the bonus triggers. If your friend deposits ₹500 but does not reach the turnover threshold within the qualifying window, the bonus does not credit. The 24-hour crediting window starts after both conditions are confirmed.
Test Result – 42 Referrals
| Metric | Result |
|---|---|
| Total registered friends | 42 |
| Completed qualifying deposit | 31 |
| Conversion rate | 73.8% |
| Total direct bonus earned | ₹1,340 |
| Average bonus per referral | ₹43.2 |
| Highest single bonus | ₹500 |
| Lowest single bonus | ₹10 |
The 73.8% conversion rate is high because the friends I invited were actual contacts, not anonymous referrals. Paid referral services that use fake accounts convert at lower rates and trigger account suspensions.
The 7-Day Window – Why Timing Matters
The 7-day window is the most common reason referral bonuses go unclaimed. Your referred friend must complete the deposit and turnover within 7 days of registering.
How the Window Works
The window starts at the exact moment of registration. If your friend registers at 3:45 PM on a Monday, the window closes at 3:45 PM the following Monday. Late deposits — even by an hour — do not trigger the bonus.
How to Keep Referrals on Track
- Explain the 7-Day Rule When You Share the CodeTell your friend clearly: register, deposit, and complete the required turnover within 7 days. Mention the deposit tiers so they know which bonus you are aiming for.
- Confirm Registration on Day 2Message your friend on day 2 to verify they registered with your code. Fix any typos immediately.
- Confirm Deposit by Day 5Ask them to make the first deposit within the first 5 days. This leaves buffer for any bank delays.
- Check Turnover on Day 6If the friend has not met the turnover threshold, remind them before day 7 ends.
- Verify Credit on Day 8Open Partner Rewards. If the bonus is missing and everything was completed, contact support within 48 hours.
Direct Subordinates vs Team Subordinates
The Agency screen splits your referrals into two categories. Understanding the difference helps you plan the referral tree.
Direct Subordinates
Friends you personally invited with your code. Direct subordinates generate the highest rebate for you — 0.6% of their turnover at L0 level. Every deposit and bet contributes to your rebate balance.
Team Subordinates
Friends your direct subordinates invited. Your direct subordinate gets the Level 1 rebate from them. You get the Level 2 rebate — a smaller percentage. Team subordinates still contribute to your passive income, but at a lower rate.
Rebate Tree Structure
| Downstream Level | L0 Rate | L1 Rate | L2 Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 level down (direct) | 0.6% | 0.7% | 0.75% |
| 2 levels down | 0.18% | 0.245% | 0.28125% |
| 3 levels down | 0.054% | 0.08575% | 0.105469% |
| 4 levels down | 0.0162% | 0.030012% | 0.039551% |
| 5 levels down | 0.00486% | 0.010504% | 0.014832% |
| 6 levels down | 0.001458% | 0.003677% | 0.005562% |
The rates scale with your rebate level (L0, L1, L2). Higher rebate levels unlock better percentages. See the VIP guide for how to raise your rebate level.
Why Team Subordinates Matter
A single direct subordinate generates a fixed rebate on their turnover. Ten team subordinates under that same person generate rebates from every one of them. A referral tree with strong Level 1 connections produces the highest passive income per hour of effort.
How to Share Your Invite Code Effectively
Method 1 – Direct Message
Send your invitation link to friends over WhatsApp, Telegram, or SMS. Personalize the message with a specific reason — mention the ₹500 welcome gift or the 2% ARPay bonus. Generic broadcast messages convert 3 to 5 times worse than personalized ones.
Method 2 – Group Chats
Post your invitation link in gaming or finance groups on WhatsApp and Telegram. Do not spam. Post once with a short explanation of the bonus structure. Respect the group rules — if the admin objects, remove the post.
Method 3 – Social Media
Share your invitation link on Instagram stories, Twitter, or Facebook. Use a screenshot of the app's bonus page alongside the link. Include the invite code in the caption so viewers can copy it directly.
Method 4 – Community Channels
Join the official TP Play Telegram community and other Indian gaming groups. Offer honest explanations of the bonus system. Members who understand the structure are more likely to register and stay active.
Maximising Referral Income – Realistic Timeline
Building a profitable referral tree takes time. Here is a realistic 90-day breakdown based on my test.
Month 1 – Foundation
Invite 10 to 15 close contacts. Expect 5 to 8 to register and 3 to 5 to complete the qualifying deposit. Bonus income: ₹100 to ₹250. The main goal in month 1 is to establish your Level 1 team and confirm the referral mechanism works in your account.
Month 2 – Expansion
Encourage your Level 1 friends to invite their own contacts. Your direct referrals continue generating rebates on their turnover, and their referrals start generating Level 2 income for you. Combined income: ₹250 to ₹500.
Month 3 – Compounding
By month 3, the referral tree has multiple levels producing rebate income simultaneously. Direct referral bonuses slow down (the same 7-day window applies to new referrals), but rebate income accelerates as downstream turnover accumulates. Combined income: ₹400 to ₹900.
90-Day Combined Total
| Income Source | 90-Day Total |
|---|---|
| Direct referral bonuses | ₹1,340 |
| Level 1 rebate (from 42 direct referrals' turnover) | ₹680 |
| Level 2 rebate (from team subordinates) | ₹210 |
| Level 3+ rebate | ₹55 |
| Total referral income | ₹2,285 |
The 90-day total of ₹2,285 is roughly 23% of the ₹10,000 maximum. Reaching the cap takes 6 to 12 months of consistent recruiting, depending on how many friends each referral brings in.
Common Referral Mistakes
1. Spamming Public Groups
Mass posting in forums and comment sections triggers account flags. The platform reviews referral activity and suspends accounts linked to spammy behaviour. Only invite people you can verify.
2. Buying Fake Referrals
Paid referral services use fake accounts. Once detected, the bonuses are reversed and both accounts are suspended. Only invite real people.
3. Using Your Own Code on a Second Account
Self-referral is a direct terms violation. Both accounts get suspended with balances forfeited. The referral bonus is void. Do not do it.
4. Not Following Up on Day 2
The 7-day window is tight. Friends who register on day 1 but forget to deposit by day 5 often miss the window. Follow up on day 2 and day 5.
5. Confusing Invitation Link with Invitation Code
Both work, but the link pre-fills the code on the registration form. The code requires manual typing. For friends who might mistype, send the link instead of the code.
6. Promising Winnings
The referral program pays bonuses on deposits, not wins. Do not tell friends they will make money. Frame it as a welcome gift, not a profit opportunity.
7. Ignoring the ₹10,000 Cap
Once the cap is hit, further referrals do not pay direct bonuses. However, they still build the rebate tree. Reaching the cap does not mean stopping recruiting — it means shifting focus from direct bonuses to long-term rebate growth.
Referral Program Compared to Other Platforms
Most Indian colour prediction platforms run similar referral programs. Here is how TP Play's structure compares to two common alternatives.
| Feature | TP Play | Tiranga | IN999 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Invite code format | 12-digit | 10-digit | 12-digit |
| Maximum direct earning | ₹10,000 | ₹10,000 | ₹10,000 |
| Deposit window | 7 days | 7 days | 7 days |
| Rebate tree depth | 6 levels | 5 levels | 6 levels |
| Direct rebate rate | 0.6% (L0) | 0.5% | 0.55% |
The TP Play and IN999 structures are close to identical. IN999 also operates a similar 6-level tree and 12-digit invite code format. For platform-specific details on IN999, the IN999 official site publishes the full commission structure and deposit tier bonuses. Players comparing the two programs should review both before committing to one as their primary referral platform.
Why the Structures Are Similar
Indian colour prediction platforms use a common referral model derived from affiliate marketing. The tiered commission structure mirrors the multi-level marketing model used across the affiliate industry. Each platform slightly adjusts the percentages, but the underlying tree structure and time windows are standard.
Community Referral Support
Several Indian gaming communities share referral tips and track commission earnings across platforms. The DMFirst APK resource hub maintains discussion threads on referral program best practices, including effective message templates and conversion rates. Their community also posts monthly earning reports from members who have built referral trees on multiple platforms.
The official TP Play Telegram channel occasionally runs referral contests during festival periods, with bonus multipliers on successful referrals.
