BIG News: You can now earn a $250 account credit when you refer a friend to PadSplit

June 18, 2025

We’ve just upgraded our member referral program, and you’re going to love what’s changed!

Gone are the days of gift cards – we’re doing something even better. 

You now earn $250 in account credits for each successful referral. Use these credits to cover your weekly membership dues and reduce your housing costs. The more friends you refer, the more weeks of free housing you can earn.

What’s new and improved

Account Credits Instead of Gift Cards
Your referral rewards now go straight to your PadSplit account as credits. No more waiting for gift cards or figuring out where to spend them – your reward immediately helps with your biggest expense: housing.

You Can Now Track the Status of Your Referrals in Your Dashboard

You can now easily keep tabs on your referrals — just head to your dashboard to track their status in real time. Click here to check the status now: https://www.padsplit.com/member/settings/referrals

Same Great Reward Amount

You still earn $250 for every friend who moves in and stays for at least 14 consecutive days. But now that money works harder for you by reducing your rent.

Higher Earning Potential

You can now earn up to $2,500 total in referral bonuses (that’s 10 successful referrals). Imagine having 10 weeks of free housing throughout the year!

How it works (it’s simple)

  1. Get Your Link: Visit padsplit.com/member/settings/referrals to grab your personal referral link
  2. Share With Friends: Send your link to friends, family, or coworkers who need housing
  3. They Move In: Your friend uses your link to sign up, books a room, and moves into any PadSplit property
  4. You Get Paid: After they stay for 14 consecutive days, you automatically get $250 in account credits

The requirements (keep these in mind)

Your friend needs to:

  • Use your personal referral link to create their account
  • Move into a PadSplit home within 90 days of clicking your link
  • Stay for at least 14 consecutive days
  • Be a first-time PadSplit member

Pro tip: Make sure your friend doesn’t switch devices or clear their browser during the signup process, or the referral tracking might get lost!

Why this change makes sense

When you’re managing your monthly budget, having your housing expense reduced is more valuable than a gift card. These account credits give you:

  • Immediate housing relief when you need it most
  • Flexibility to use credits when it works best for your budget
  • Real impact on your biggest monthly expense

Who can you refer?

Think about people in your network who might benefit from PadSplit’s affordable, flexible housing:

  • Coworkers looking to save money on rent
  • Friends between leases or new to the area
  • Family members starting fresh in a new city
  • Anyone frustrated with traditional apartment hunting
