A user recently encountered a puzzling situation after a friend signed up for Gemini using their referral link. After getting verified, the friend applied for a credit card through the app, but didn't use the same link. Now, the user wonders if these referrals can be connected.

What's the Buzz?

This scenario raises eyebrows in the crypto community. The user reported on a popular platform about their referral system experience. They described how their link, clicked post-signup, led straight to the credit card's welcome pageโ€”but no referrals were credited for the card.

One perplexed user expressed: "I sent a message to Gemini about it with Ticket ID 5248438. Will they link it?" It's unclear how the companyโ€™s referral structure works, and whether it can track such distinct actions.

Community members are chiming in on the situation. The post stirred interest regarding

  • How referral systems function for both signups and credit card applications.

  • The effectiveness of user support responses.

  • Potential insights on improving the process.

Responses from other users indicate a mix of frustration and optimism. Some found themselves in similar situations.
