Canonical HTML: [Verified Hyperliquid referral code AWD: how to use it](https://hyperliquidreferralcodes.com/how-to-use-hyperliquid-referral-code) Markdown URL: [Verified Hyperliquid referral code AWD: how to use it as Markdown](https://hyperliquidreferralcodes.com/markdown/how-to-use-hyperliquid-referral-code.md) Reviewed: 12 Aug 2026 (2026-08-12). Bottom line: Verified on 12 Aug 2026: Hyperliquid’s official app recognized AWD as a referral code. Every valid code gets the same 4% eligible-fee discount for the first $25M of volume. ## The exact referral terms Hyperliquid’s referral system is a protocol feature, not a coupon invented by this site. The official documentation states that a referred trader receives a 4% discount on fees for the first $25M in trading volume. Referral rewards for the referrer apply to a different, larger volume ceiling. Every legitimate referral code offers the same referred-trader percentage. AWD is this site’s code; using it supports this independent resource because the operator receives a share of eligible protocol referral rewards. Your advertised 4% discount is not reduced by that disclosure. | Item | Official rule | | --- | --- | | Trader discount | 4% of eligible trading fees | | Discount volume | First $25M of referred-user volume | | Vault activity | Excluded | | Subaccount fees | Excluded from referral discount | | Funding and slippage | Not trading fees; no referral discount | ## How we verified referral code AWD On 12 Aug 2026, the public official route at app.hyperliquid.xyz/join/AWD displayed the message “You are invited to Hyperliquid from the referral code: AWD”. The browser remained on app.hyperliquid.xyz, Hyperliquid’s official application domain. The check confirms public code recognition. Account eligibility remains specific to the connected address. Hyperliquid’s referral and fee pages state the standard 4% benefit, the first $25M volume limit, and the vault and subaccount exclusions.

Confirm AWD on the connected address before trading. ## How to activate code AWD The direct route is the official join URL below. You can also open Hyperliquid’s Referrals page and enter AWD there when the interface offers that option. Confirm the code in the official app before placing meaningful volume; this site cannot attach a code to your account itself. Connect only through app.hyperliquid.xyz, verify the domain in the address bar, and reject wallet prompts you do not understand. A referral link should take you to the official application. The link must never request a seed phrase or token approval on an unrelated domain. Key points: - Open app.hyperliquid.xyz/join/AWD. - Connect or sign in using the method you intend to trade with. - Open the Referrals screen and verify that AWD is shown. - Check the fee line in the official interface before trading. Note: Affiliate disclosure: the operator of this site may earn referral rewards when eligible users trade through AWD. Referral eligibility and amounts are controlled by Hyperliquid. ## How much does 4% actually save? The discount is 4% of the fee, not four percentage points off the trade. At the base perpetual taker rate of 0.045%, a $100,000 taker fill has a $45 fee before staking or referral effects. Four percent of $45 is $1.80. Opening and later closing at the same size would double both figures. Your real all-in cost can be dominated by funding and slippage. A tight discount does not rescue a poor fill or a leveraged position held through expensive funding. Use the calculator to separate each line rather than treating the referral percentage as the total cost reduction. | One-way notional | Base perp taker fee | 4% referral saving | | --- | --- | --- | | $10 000 | $4.50 | $0.18 | | $100 000 | $45.00 | $1.80 | | $1 000 000 | $450.00 | $18.00 | ## Common eligibility mistakes A master account’s fee tier can reflect subaccount volume, but the referral documentation explicitly excludes subaccounts from the referred-trader discount. Vault volume is also treated separately. Model these activities as ineligible unless the official terms change. Referral codes and builder codes are different mechanisms. A referral code discounts eligible protocol trading fees. A builder code can add an approved per-order fee for an interface or integration. The cost calculator exposes an extra-fee field so the two are not silently blended. Key points: - Do not claim that AWD discounts funding payments. - Do not assume a subaccount inherits the master account’s referral discount. - Do not confuse a builder fee with the protocol’s maker/taker fee. - Do not trust claims of more than the official 4% referred-trader discount. ## How we keep referral claims current We compare the official join route, referral documentation and fee documentation. The verification record names the observation, source and date. A read-only monitor checks the official documents for missing pages and changed facts. A detected change requires editorial review before published terms change. If the official app and this guide disagree, stop and use the official app’s displayed fee preview and current documentation. Product terms can change faster than an editorial page. ## Why AWD is a documented choice Hyperliquid publishes a 4% discount for users of every valid referral code. AWD does not provide a higher protocol rate. This site publishes dated official-app verification, exact exclusions, primary sources, tested calculators and a public correction route. The site may earn protocol referral rewards from eligible AWD activity. Hyperliquid does not endorse the site, and each address remains subject to the official app. Links: - [Review the publisher and funding disclosure](https://hyperliquidreferralcodes.com/about): Related resource for this section. - [Report an AWD claim correction](https://hyperliquidreferralcodes.com/contact): Related resource for this section. ## Frequently asked questions ### How is referral code AWD verified?
