Builder codes and referrals

The app’s referral links and an integrator’s builder code are the same thing on chain. Both put an address in the builder field of each order. Both earn the same share, under the same holding rule. See Builder codes.

They differ only in who fills the field.

	Referral link	Builder code in your interface
Who sets the builder	The Mog app, from the referral the trader accepted	Your interface, on every order it signs
Where the link between trader and builder lives	Off chain, in Mog’s referral records	In each signed order
Which orders it covers	Orders the trader places in the Mog app	Orders the trader places in your interface
Holding rule and share	Same	Same
Can the trader change it	The trader cannot replace an accepted referrer in the app	Each order names its own builder

What this means for a trader who uses both

A trader can accept a referral in the Mog app and also trade in your interface. Each order pays the builder it names. Orders from the app pay the referrer. Orders from your interface pay you. No order pays two builders.

Which one to use

• Use a referral link to bring traders to the Mog app.
• Use a builder code when traders use your own interface.

One address can do both. The holding rule, the recorded balance and the earnings are per address, so they are shared.
