Do I Need an Invite to Join Peanut?

No. Peanut signup is open to everyone in the Peanut app for iOS and Android, so you can create an account without an invite code or a waitlist. New accounts are created in the app, not on the website. A referral link or your friend's username tells Peanut who invited you, for rewards; neither controls access.

Info
The Peanut Card has no waitlist of its own. Once you're verified in the app, you can get your Peanut Card at peanut.me/shhhhh; applications are subject to approval. A referral link has no effect on card access.

What Happens When a Friend Invites Me?

You can tell Peanut who invited you in two ways. Both are optional.

  • Open your friend's referral link. Then get the Peanut app and sign up there. Peanut keeps your friend attached to the signup.
  • Type your friend's username. During signup, the app shows Invited by a friend? before you claim your username. Enter your friend's @username and tap Continue. The app checks the username first.

If you came from a referral link, you can tap Skip on that step and the link still counts. If you type a username, that person becomes your inviter instead. Peanut records the referral when you claim your username and your account is created.

If you skip the step and have no referral link, your account still gets normal app access. The only difference is that no inviter is attached for referral rewards.

Referral Rewards

Joining through a friend's referral link does not guarantee a reward. Peanut may show rewards as surprises as you use the app. Check Rewards for the current details and any next action shown on your account.

Every registered user, including someone who signed up directly, can share their own referral link. See Invite Friends to Peanut for more information.
