There is no limit! If you bring friends who donate to dozens of studies, you'll be rewarded $10 for every single one of them.
Once you have some money in your referral balance, you can just go to your profile and click on the button that says "Referral Information." You'll see an option there to cash out. Once you click that, we'll send a check to the address listed for your account via USPS by the end of the month.
Absolutely not! Everything at DNAsimple is 100% free for donors. You just need a free DNAsimple account. You can get yours in under two minutes by clicking this link to our sign up page.
Yes! There are no restrictions on who you can refer, but family referrals are strongly encouraged because they often help researchers more than unrelated individuals.
Usually this means that the person you referred accidentally changed your token when they signed up. We can usually fix this, so if this happens, please send a message to ask@dnasimple.org or our Facebook page.
