Hyperliquid: entering a referral code on an existing wallet
Hyperliquid has no signup form: a referral code is entered on app.hyperliquid.xyz/referrals or comes from a referral link, and gives a 4% fee discount on the first $25M of volume. The docs do not say whether an existing code can be changed or whether there is a deadline, so check the Referrals page of your own wallet.
Disclosure: our links carry referral code HYPEKR; we may earn a commission. The rules below come from the exchanges’ own pages, including where they say no.
How to apply, step by step
- Open app.hyperliquid.xyz/referrals with the wallet you trade from.
- If no code is shown, enter HYPEKR and confirm.
- Check that the Referrals page now lists the code before your next trade.

4% off your fees on the first $25M of trading volume, per the official docs.
