* You will receive a bonus of **2%** of the total points earned by the referees for every future swap-to-earn cycle.
* Each cycle starts on the 1st and 16th of each month and ends just before the beginning of a new cycle. Rewards are distributed on the 1st and 16th of every month and can be claimed at <https://zkswap.finance/earn/rewards>

**Example:**

* Cycle 1: If Alex uses your referral link, you will receive a bonus of 10% of the total points earned by him.
* Cycle 2: You will earn 2% of his total points because he was referred by you via your referral link in cycle 1.
* Cycle n: You will continue to earn 2% of his total points in the same way as in cycle 2.
