Referrals and rewards

May 29, 2019

According to the exchange circular (PDF), beginning August 15, 2024, brokers are prohibited from paying referral commissions to individuals not registered as an Authorised Person (AP). As a result, Zerodha will not be permitted to pay the 10% brokerage generated by referrals through the referral programme from August 25, 2024, until the exchange provides further clarification. However, 300 reward points will still be given for each successful referral.

Hope you are enjoying the new products and features we are constantly pushing at Zerodha.  Better yet, we have several big announcements scheduled over the next few weeks. We have always taken the approach of building the best products for you and let word of mouth marketing spread the goodness. We have refused to raise external VC and PE funding even at irresistible valuations as we firmly believe that external investors can potentially change the focus from products to inorganic client acquisition sprees with big marketing budgets. This is something that is just not in our DNA.

Thanks to you, even with zero advertising spends, we are the largest retail stock broker in India today. But, with zero brokerage for equity investing and no-fee direct mutual funds, we work with razor-thin margins. All of what we do makes business sense only at a large scale, and we look forward to your continued support to help spread the word. We have just launched a brand new referral program to make this rewarding for you as well.

Refer your friends on Console and earn reward points

Refer your friends on Console and earn reward points

You can enter a friend’s contact details or copy the affiliate link and share it on social media, WhatsApp, email, etc. If any of your friends click on the affiliate link and open an account with us, you will receive 300 points. Points can be used to gain access to our growing ecosystem of trading and investing apps such as smallcase, Sensibull, Streak etc. You will see how many points are required to subscribe to a service on the rewards page on Console.

As a token of gratitude, we have credited your account with 100 points to get you started. Check out the referral dashboard on Console https://console.zerodha.com/refer.

We look forward to your continued support to enable us to innovate and build new products for you.

Happy Trading,

  61. mahesh says:

    dear friends don’t become partner as they cheated, previously there was no rule of monthly adding new client but now implemented useless rules. they collect our reference after they boycott you by some stupid rules & take a whole benefit they have no ethics, not sustain on top as this type of cheating with partners.

  62. aamod says:

  66. Naresh says:

    Dear Sir,
    You are requested to enable BO please.

  67. Rashmi Ranjan Rajguru says:

    HI Nitin,

    In one way you are telling to refer our friends, after getting some referrals, you are introducing new rules, if we will fulfill those rules, then only we will get referral benefit. Is not it a double standard game?

    By citing some rule, You have removed me from your partnership programme, so that in future you need not give me the referral benefits. You are enjoying so much money because of these partners and you are doing such things, I cannot believe.

    NB: I know ,probably you will not publish this post in the forum.

  68. Sandip Rajendra Hirave says:

    Hi sir i want partnership with zerodha my referral client as plan 10% brokerage. but my referral client trade everyday and i have not receive any brokerage. i have only receive referral points. please help me connect this plan. then i earn some more. and connect with zerodha family.

  70. Ramanand says:

    Dear friends choose another broker if you want to save you money.

    If you reefer some people and you gather some money .. Zerodha will close this reward function like last time.

    if you ask you get that type of reply
    Matti says:
    May 29, 2019 at 3:01 pm
    Hey Sachin, the referral programme was launched only today. Referrals from now will receive reward points. No way for us to track your old referrals to give points.

  71. Pratik says:

    Is there any difference in brokerage between referred and direct account??

  72. KRISHNA KUMAR says:

    DEAR SIR,
    I HAD SUCCESSFULLY REFERRED 5 FRIEND.THEY ALSO NOW ACTIVATED AND TRADING TOO IN REWARDS SECTION ONLY SHOWING MY 1800POINTS,CAN YOU PLZ TELL ME WHERE I CAN SEE MY 10% BROKERAGE COMMISSION ON DAILY BASICS…

  73. Satish says:

    I have referred one friend. His Account has been activated but still not credited reward points me.
    Kindly help to credit reward point me

  74. Rohit says:

    Hi, Kindly confirm I have referred zerodha to my friend and I received the 300 points. But how I can check how much I received as commission from his paid brokerage. And how can I check the my received brokerage amount.

  75. Arun says:

    I redeemed my 300 reward points against an option under “smallcase” i.e. “Purchase one smallcase for free (worth Rs.100+GST)”

    Question is how do I get to know if this offer has been activated in my smallcase account, since I don’t have any sort of confirmation? Or do I start with purchase of a smallcase right away, i.e. without any conformation from either parties (Zerodha or smallcase).

    Look forward to your reply. TIA.

  76. Ashish says:

    I referral one of my friend to open account in zerodha, but forget to send link to him. He started account opening process and pay account opening fee, but unable to process next. What will i do, so that he will add in my referral list?

    • Matti says:

      Hey Ashish, if you have entered your friend’s details on Console, there’s nothing you need to do and the referral will be recorded. However, if you hadn’t entered your friend’s details and he has registered directly on our site, I’m afraid this referral can’t be mapped to you anymore.

  77. Mohit Agrawal says:

    The referral details on your app shows the name of the candidate referred by me. But on the same page the referral point credit details, doesn’t have that. Why so even after the account has been activated and trading done for over a lakh of Rupees even ??

  78. SHIV KUMAR VISHWAKARMA says:

    Hi,
    Can I get referral points back, if I did redeem it by mistake. Because here is not asked any confirmation pop ups window.

  79. Santhosh says:

    Hi I got email regarding 300 reward points as i have referred my friend. Please let me know where to check and how to use it.

  80. Thabresh Syed says:

    I referred already 5 persons and in january referred 1 person.If I am elogible to 10% brokerage share or i need to refer 5 referrels after january like any conditions?

  81. Viren says:

    If I open a link through one of your marketing partners (Youtuber) will I get charged higher brokerage?

  82. Siddharth says:

    If you open an account through an affiliate link on Zerodha, are there any privacy concerns? Like the person who’s link you are using can see the trading activity and personal details or such of the person who used their affiliate link. I fear that I might have opened my Zerodha account with some affiliate link which I found on some online webpage. I don’t remember if I did this or not. But its an important privacy concern which I just realized today. Please HELP ME ! How do I check if my account was opened through an affiliate link or not? HELPPPPP

    • Matti says:

      Even if you open an account using an affiliate link, your activity isn’t shared with any third-parties. It’s only available to you. Nothing to worry about. 🙂

  83. Karan Verma says:

    I have referred a friend but status is pending. Can you help here

  84. vijay says:

    refral status pending. what is this?

  85. Rupesh says:

    why d’t you credit the referral bonus in ledger balance… i d’t see this is fair that you are forcing people to redem the points in your paid services only… Many other are offering Amazon/Bookmyshow vocher….. this way will encourage more people to refer zerodha….

    Rethink for better solution instead of random replies…. 🙂

    • Matti says:

      This isn’t allowed by the exchanges. We used to offer cash incentives for referrals earlier but were asked by the regulators to stop the practice.

  91. Srinathjayanna says:

    Is there any time limits to use this points which is given as rewards.Like we need to use all the points with in one month time like we get in Paytm and all with certain time frame.

  92. mohan says:

    I am trying to open account without referral.

    When making a payment , i got error “Your payment could not be captured. Please try later”.

    So, i tried again. I got same error to make payment again. I tried again.

    To my surprise 3*300 = 900/- rupees got debited.

    Reference IDs:
    (1)
    pay_Cd2SqxCbneBrTl
    (2)
    pay_Cd2Q6cyVDe2wdd
    (3)
    pay_Cd2NFOL7oPrh9M

    I got 3 annaxure emails. Did zeroda open 3 accounts or what?

    Agreed , your payment gateway is faulty. Similar issue faced even by others in support forum. We don’t know when your Payment Gateway will fix these kind of issue. But pl. ask your Payment Gateway provider to STOP raising MISLEADING error messages. Atleast i expect your error messages should be correct. It should rather say “Your payment could not be captured. Please try later. PLEASE CHECK YOUR YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IF AMOUNT IS DEBITED OR NOT. If debited, do not try again. If not debited, try again after 1 hour”.

    There should be no hesitation in fixing these kinds of issues before aspiring referral customers.

    Sure, next few days i will be wasting my time to contact zeroda helpline.

    Perhaps Zeroda should have adopted something like ‘Paytm’ as Payment Gateway. Or atleast recity error messages as suggested.

  93. mohan says:

    Dear Nitin and Matti,
    Please STOP this referral program. This will DESTROY Zeroda one day. You will fall in your own trap and join club of Kotak ..etc.

    Let me tell you from my experience. I traded 6 Lakhs volume equity in Kotak Securities and sold at 4% spread. Despite that i incurred Loss of 800 rupees. The profit i earned is eaten by my (1)referrer, (2)Trading Software partner pay per trade model,(3) Kotak Securities broker and (4)high taxes (again due to inflated charges of 1 to 3.)

    Also if u increase your customer base by means of freebies, then u end up getting 3rd grade amature traders. These novice traders dont know basics like (T+2) and talk ill about Zeroda and put poor ratings in playstore and other review sites. They could ask you to reduce brokerage to Rs 10/- or so. Does these traders deserve Zeroda Discounting Platform? Focus on getting quality real & experienced customers, rather than hard-sold customers like friends, family members etc..

    Please focus on continous improving quality which you are already doing of course and do nothing else. In India Customer base increases by “word of mouth”. Currently you have better ratings in “chittorgarh.com” and even in “mouthshut.com”.

    I wish Zeroda to grow up silently like some Gmail and Whatsapp.

    Rather with those spare funds, introduce a feature like ” Practise Account” aka “Demo Account” aka “Paper trading with virtual 10 Lakhs rupee Credit”. This feature should be present right in regular Production Zeroda App’s Login Screen. E.g Like FXCM.

    The moment some experienced trader belonging to other broker say “ICICI DIRECT” attemps to downloads Zeroda app from Playstore/ Appstore to give a “TRY” he should see 3 options in regular prod app..

    * Login to Trade
    Username:
    Password:
    * Login to Practice Account ( Try Zeroda)
    * Open An Account

    Even if you still want to go ahead with reward referals subject to exchange approval, this will create insecurity and discouragment to existing Zeroda Traders who do Trades in large Volumes. They would be wondering why referrer would earns “someone else” money for free? And actual trader gets Zero incentive for his Big trades in return. His profit is eaten up by someone else.

    I have been reading and researcing stock brokers. Read 100’s of Zeroda reviews from last 4 days. I was impressed and today a while ago, I was about to “Open an Zeroda Account Online” and was pre-checking if Zeroda by chance has this referral-mania scheme or not. And i was utterly disappointed when i came across with this approach.

    “If i do a trade, i won’t get anything but my referrer gets free credit. Especially when i make a loss, i still pay my referrer from my capital loss”

    Sounding like some fradulant “Chain marketing” , ” Networking Marketing” or “MLM Multi Level Marketing” schemes.

    Problem with indian companies is that they want to simantaniously travel in 2 different paths ( both angel’s and devil’s path) and benefit from both. Benefit from every popular idea. By the time they realise the shortcomings, it gets too late.

    • Matti says:

      When someone refers you, the referral points are just a token of appreciation for introducing a new customer to us. This is a one-time point credit that can be used to subscribe to our products. There is no ongoing share of brokerage happening. Also, we give 300 points to both, the person referring, and the person opening an account. Your later activity on the platform is yours alone, and the referrer would have nothing to do with it.

  94. Vishal says:

    I referred my friend he opne an account but i didn’t get any rewards. Is there any option to put my referral code after opening account to get rewards.

    Thank you for resisting external funding. This decision is far-sighted, and will help the company a great deal in the future.

  98. Rajendra Rahane says:

    I have referred 2 peoples under 10% of brokerage will be received of referred persons.
    But I have not received nor receiving anything. Is it only fake marketing strategy where you gives only fake commitments without delivery.
    Kindly clarify.

    • Matti says:

      If you had referred earlier and for which no credit was given, we will be crediting reward points by this weekend. We had to stop the earlier program as exchanges said any continuous brokerage share can be paid only to exchange approved authorized persons. This is because potentially the referral could be induced to trade more by the person referring. There is no issue paying a one-time referral reward for opening an account, hence our new referral program.

    Hi Nitin, This sounds interesting from adding new users and increasing the business portfolio to claim highest clients, but what about giving the new features to the existing clients like T+5 client mode etc which ICICI D and other brokerage houses are already leveraging and users enjoying? I trust I raised this earlier around an year ago as well with Zerodha and the response I got back was the feature will be available with in

  105. Prems says:

    It is better you start shooting people directly instead of indirect shooting

    Your so called universe of fin tech products and you are paying us points to get you client so that you can earn from that client individual for life time and give us some one time points to so we can use points to use your other products of zerodha

    Pls point the gun to my head and shoot instead of stabbing with your points for Zeordha bi-Products..

  106. PSShrimali says:

    Its an ordinary step… Nothing special…!

    I think all the people I had referred to zerodha was because of the zerodha’s uniqueness of sharing the revenue to its members for referring rather than advertising. But then it changed overnight. The 1st one was the passive income generator idea and this one is not that.

    Actually, after so many years of experience I know one thing, that the business should do cross selling its best business practise but when its done by force then it back fire…! As it was mentioned in the article that the 1 reward point is equal to 1 rupee… then why you simply not crediting 1 rupee…! because by one way or the other this one rupee will come to eco system of zerodha… directly via trading or investment or via buying action of any value added product…!!

    And above all, it will keep the goodness or ever lasting charm of its “Passive Income Generator”.

    • Matti says:

      We had to stop the earlier program as exchanges said any continuous brokerage share can be paid only to exchange approved authorized persons. This is because potentially the referral could be induced to trade more by the person referring. There is no issue paying a one-time referral reward for opening an account, however, since we can’t be sure of revenue from each referral, we offer points that can be used within the ecosystem instead of cash.

  110. Prasad says:

    If my referred friends do trades, do i get points for every trade? So that I can use those points for your new products?

    New referral program will be useful when you share your brokerage percentage into some points. If not it’s of no use. If we refer some friends then he will be your client forever. So, we are expecting some benefits whenever he trades

  111. Rajamohan says:

    Earlier I had referred few of my friends and they had joined Zerodha and much happy compared to their previous platform.

    We used to trade in index option, now a days we face a RMS limit problem to out of the money option where we miss lot of trades, had referred this problem to support team their only answer is to get option close to the spot price, which is usually higher in price, can understand this limit is by exchange to the Zerodha, but have no idea this will be fixed any time soon, couple of my friends had moved out to other broker mainly due to this issue

    Still referring many of friends and relatives

      Hey, we’ve only started this referral programme today, and would be able to track referrals from here on out. The older referrals we’d be unable to track in order to give you points. 🙂

    I have always faced issues with the referral programs… It needs multiple follow-up with the backend teams, referrals don’t get contacted for a long time… I have referred 4 of my friends last week, none of them have been contacted yet.. Also raised a support ticket (#20190528620362) and provided the details but no luck as of now !! and this has happened with 90 % of my referrals

    Dear Zerodha,

    I have been trading in your platform and I really Appreciate the charts you provide and UI is excellent, in your referral program if you provide us the percentage of gains in each trade like one referral does 5 trades per day the amount of brokerage you get know in that if we get some good percent, we will definitely refer.

      • Krishna says:

        Hi all,
        Greetings..!
        My wish is to see ZERODHA as no.1 at all times. ( because initiation in reducing brokerages)
        It’s our request from all of traders,
        Before referring to your trading platform zerodha, we need the graph area to be enlarged, the trading view styles to be updated, it will not save and update our settings completely, we cannot change and save each time. we need you to be again compete with other emerging trading platforms in the market, but onething +ve abt the platform is, its comparatively bit stable.

        Hope it will be considered, then I’ll start my trade again in ZERODHA. and then AFTER SATISAFACTION – TRADING IN ZERODHA, ill refer without your points or bonus. When the trading is easy at zerodha comparing to others, we will refer like anything. no bonus required, no manipulation about this reference thing. Its with lot of errors.

        Now this referring is suffering.

      • NISHANTH says:

        I had refered many in previous referal program. When new referal came into effect only got welcome bonus. Completely unfair right?

  139. giridharan says:

    I have referred nearly 10 of my friends and relatives to open zerodha account in last 30 days. would i get any rewards now 😉

    • We will not have any track on who was referred by you. 🙂 But do refer through Console going forward.

      • Jay P says:

        Better to given 300 Rs. credit in ledger balance. It is more beneficial.

        What if i don’t use any other products like Sensibull, streak, and etc… then all points are worthless.

      • Gaurav singh says:

        I have referred one of my friend but not get any reward then I called customer care they told me this offer is closed

        • Matti says:

          Hey Gaurav, this referral programme was only started yesterday. We’ll soon be adding credits for your older referrals as well.

      • curious says:

        Can we use the 300 reward point for trading or can we encash it? @nithin kamath

  140. Varun says:

    If you’re doing so well; maybe you should consider introducing path breaking brokerage cuts @ INR 5/ transaction!

  141. Rajesh L says:

    Thats delightful… .will certainly spread the word..
