How do I refer a friend?

[stevea33ca]

I bought and Walmart activated the sim in store.  They said I won't have to pay the $10 with in store activation.  How do I use refer a friend so they can get the $1/m?

Once you’re wrapping up the account activation process, you’ll come across a section to input a Friend or Referral Code.

Be sure to enter the 6-digit code Public Mobile Referral to snag a $10 credit for your account.

Wishing you the best of luck! Welcome aboard to the community—we’re glad to have you! 😊

I didn’t see that option while transferring my number. How do I add it now ? Plz tell

I just did the activation and transfer from Fido to public but on the public mobile app I didn’t see the option to add referral code of my friend. How to I add referral code now ?

It's not possible to get the friend reward after you've already signed up.

Go to your online account, you should be able to see a unique referral code. Give that code to your friend and when they will activate their account by providing that code you will stat getting $1 reward after that

Nothing you can do but wait after asking moderators. Store was to enter referral code of your friend for you.

@stevea33ca @goldilock  it can be done after by contacting the moderator_team if it's in a case like this that the Walmart associate didn't put it in!

In order to receive the one-time $10 credit from a referall (and the person who referred you to receive $1 off every month you are a member), I believe that it needs to be done upon activation.  The public mobile member needs to give you their unique referall code, which they received by text or can be found logging into "my account" (upper right corner) and under "overview", it is found on the right hand side of the page.  There is a code and a link to the code to give to others. 

You will find your unique code this same manner and can give to friends and familys and if they switch to public mobile and use your referall code upon their activation, they will receive a one-time $10 credit and you will receive $1 off for every month they are an active member of public mobile. 

Be sure to sign up for auto-pay so you can benefit more and receive $2 off each month too!

As usual the clerk is confusing things. Sure yes Walmart might offer a free SIM with in-store activation. But that doesn't mean you're not still entitled to the Public Mobile deal of refer-a-friend. The clerk should not have denied that benefit from you.

Sometimes people have been successful asking for the refer-a-friend benefit after activation.
