Referral Network Explained

A referral network is an incentive mechanism that rewards existing users for introducing new participants. In Floops, the 10-level deep referral network creates a viral growth engine where referrers earn a percentage when their referrals (and their referrals' referrals) claim rewards. This creates aligned incentives for organic community growth.
