Inviting People to SpiritDAO
Last updated: 2026-07-20
Three ways to bring someone in
- Email invitation — send a personal invite from the app; they get a link that opens the door for them.
- Pod invite link — pod leaders create a shareable link that makes accepters members of the pod automatically.
- Your referral code — the classic: share your 6-character code from your Identity page, and they enter it at sign-up (there's a "Have a referral code?" option on the entry screen).
All three credit you (or the link's creator) as the referrer. Nobody needs a code or invitation to join SpiritDAO — the entry screen's main Enter SpiritDAO button works for everyone — but invitations make arriving smoother and connect newcomers to the person and community who welcomed them.
Inviting by email
- Go to Identity (home screen → Identity card).
- Scroll to Invite Friends.
- Enter one or more email addresses — separate several with commas or new lines.
- Optionally pick one of your pods, so the invitation reads "…from [your pod]."
- Click Send invites.
Each person receives an email — "[Your name] is inviting you to join SpiritDAO" — with a personal Get started link. When they click it, sign-up opens with your referral already applied; there's no code for them to type.
Things to know:
- The email text is fixed — your name and pod are filled in, but the message itself can't be edited (this keeps invitations trustworthy and consistent).
- There's a limit of about 20 invitations per member per day.
- People who are already members, or who were invited in the last 30 days, are skipped automatically — the results list tells you who and why.
Pod invite links (for pod leaders)
Leaders can create links that grant pod membership on acceptance:
- Open your pod's Manage page → Members tab → Invite Links section.
- Choose an expiration (7/30/90 days or never) and a use limit (or unlimited), then click Create invite link.
- Copy the link and share it anywhere — email, chat, social.
- Revoke a link at any time; it stops working immediately.
When someone accepts:
- They become a pod member right away. Chat, forum, events, surveys, and the knowledge base unlock the moment they arrive. New visitors go through normal sign-up first; existing members just get added.
- Eligibility still applies. If the pod's member role has requirements (for example, a community-token minimum), the link checks them — someone who doesn't qualify is told why. A link is an invitation, not an exemption.
- The on-chain role comes in a second step. Each acceptance is queued, and leaders see a notice in the Invite Links section — "N new members awaiting on-chain role mint." One click on Mint all (gasless) issues every queued role token in a single free transaction. Members can use all the everyday pod features before this step; the on-chain token matters for treasury-level features.
- Links grant member roles only — leadership always goes through explicit approval.
A good habit for leaders with an active link: check the Invite Links section every day or two and mint the queue.
Where to find your own referral code
Identity page → Invite Code — share it directly, or just use the email inviter above, which applies it automatically.
