How we check, and what the evidence proves

Independent affiliate guide. We may earn a share of trading fees through our code. Product instructions are based on public documentation unless a specific observation is labelled. Evidence and limits.

Evidence status

Why a referral landing page is not a validity test

On 18 September 2026, at about 21:18 UTC, separate fresh browser sessions rendered the official VIP10 URL and a URL containing an unvalidated control string. Both displayed the same 10% offer template with the path's string in the code field.

We did not query whether the control string belonged to an account. This does not show that VIP10 is invalid. It shows that seeing a code and offer on the public page is insufficient to establish code acceptance. Stronger evidence would identify the intended referrer and document what a legitimate account actually accepted.

Current claim register

• Standard discount: FOMO documents 0.50% becoming 0.45%. Specific treatment of small Solana bands, major-token minimums and perps remains unspecified. Referral source; fee source.
• Duration: no unconditional lifetime term is established by the public sources reviewed here. No fixed expiry has been verified either. Programme terms.
• After signup: no self-service code field; support-assisted attachment and referrer-change situations are described by FOMO. Approval time and retroactive treatment are not specified. Current support rule.
• Ordinary Solana spot fees: four documented bands. Selected majors have separate pricing; the under-1,000-USDC wording does not give us one universal exact formula. Fee schedule.
• Referrer earnings: standard 25% share, first Solana buy excluded, and network-dependent payout timing. Affiliate-specific rates and every product's eligibility are not specified. Referral terms; affiliate programme.

How the calculations work

Examples apply the published fee model to an explicitly stated order amount. A buy and sell are priced separately because their values may differ. Ordinary Solana examples use the four bands; standard-rate referral examples apply 0.45% where the documented base is 0.50%. An unknown discount is not labelled zero or silently assumed to apply.

Network, protocol and token-contract fees, spread and price impact are separate costs. Perps funding is a separate cash flow that can be paid or received. Estimated price impact is a model assumption, not a promised fill. Effective percentages must name the denominator: initial cash, order notional and total traded volume answer different questions.

Use the calculator, worked fee examples and published-fee dataset (CSV). The dataset is our structured transcription and interpretation of public fee rules, not a record of customer transactions.

Historical DefiLlama fees divided by volume are platform aggregates. They do not reveal a typical user's cost or the distribution of small orders. Compare matching time windows, spot coverage, referral treatment and adapter versions before interpreting a ratio.

App-store feedback is a separate evidence type

Our 19 September 2026 store snapshot records U.S. listing scores separately from seven written review cards selected for display by Apple and Google Play. Duplicate expanded Apple copies were removed. The small selection cannot establish complaint rates, typical support speed or the authenticity of each account story. Promotional text in a review or display name is not a verified referral offer.

Apple ratings use its lookup response; rounded listing counts and Google Play header/device counts retain their original labels. We do not combine them or overwrite the older historical metrics elsewhere on the site. The linked JSON records the source URLs, selection method, dates as displayed and short paraphrases. We have not turned these platform scores into an editorial rating or review schema.

Images, illustrations and experience

Official store screenshots illustrate the operator's product presentation. Recreated screens are illustrations. Older images without a recorded capture time are not dated using the latest article update. They are not evidence that our account received a reward or completed a trade.

A future account test needs the tester's consent, device, OS, app version, country, timestamp, exact task, raw evidence and exceptions. Quote, acceptance message and settlement receipt stay separate. One test cannot establish results for every account or platform. We do not create self-referrals or manufactured trading activity for research.

Dates and maintenance

Updated means the article changed. A source-read date identifies the particular public document observed. A capture date belongs to its image. A test date requires a real recorded test. Source-relative labels such as over a week ago are not converted into invented exact publication dates.

Automated checks can detect source changes and inconsistent numbers. They do not replace interpretation or prove account results. A successful fetch is not evidence that every claim remains true. Unavailable sources keep their last successful date and must not receive a fresh verified label.

The previous snapshot was dated 3 September. We found changed rules during the 18 September review. We do not claim uninterrupted daily monitoring or an installed schedule merely because a checking script exists. Historical app ratings and protocol data remain historical until successfully refreshed.

Corrections — 18 September 2026

1. Replaced the categorical no-code-after-signup rule with FOMO's documented support options.
2. Removed unsupported lifetime, every-fee and worldwide guarantees.
3. Separated public landing observations from actual code acceptance; added the control-template limitation.
4. Removed the unsupported 8.2/10 verdict, blanket independent-review wording and unsubstantiated personal-experience claims.
5. Removed the inference that aggregate fees prove the distribution of small trades; preserved historical periods.
6. Replaced an untraceable, inconsistently counted code list with a smaller linked advertising sample. No code in that sample is account-tested.
7. Updated token-review eligibility to the current $5 million market-cap and 1,000-unique-holder thresholds, alongside $1 million daily volume and unique metadata.

Updates — 19 September 2026

Added the five-situation referral support chooser and a dated, limited app-store feedback sample. The store observations update that section only; they do not establish account acceptance, trade execution or a completed withdrawal.

Corrected the chain guide to base trading fees on the traded token's network, independently of the deposit route. Corrected the perps guide to separate position notional from collateral and transfer minimums, and to show hourly funding as paid or received. Equal-entry-and-exit examples now state that assumption. Removed an unsupported wallet-count heading and blanket claims about cheaper long-term holding. The Moonshot comparison identifies its $100 tier assumption and limits its conclusions to modeled platform fees.

Who does the work

The writing uses the declared pen name Vip Ten and AI assistance. We do not claim an independently staffed review desk or verified trading credentials. The site earns referral commission; that interest is disclosed near referral actions.

Send corrections and the supporting source to hello@fomoreferralcode.com. We cannot provide account support; use FOMO's in-app support for account-specific requests.
