# Affiliate FAQ

<details>

<summary>Is it possible to use Celestium services without being affiliated?</summary>

Most services are gated. When the membership gate is active in the Core contract, all bet payers and liquidity providers must hold a soulbound Pass NFT. There is no public path that bypasses Pass ownership.

</details>

<details>

<summary>How can I recommend someone to Celestium?</summary>

Once you hold a Pass and have deposited at least 100,000 CELT into the primary Liquidity Pool you become an eligible inviter. The person you invite mints their own Pass and specifies your wallet address as their inviter. The relationship is recorded permanently on-chain at mint time.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What is the Celestium Pass and why does it exist?</summary>

The Pass is a soulbound, non-transferable NFT that serves as your permanent membership identity in the protocol. It anchors affiliate attribution, governance eligibility, and gated function access. See [Celestium Pass NFT](/affiliate-manual/affiliate-explanation/celestium-pass-nft.md) for the full description.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What are the affiliate commissions in Celestium?</summary>

There are three commission types:

* **Direct Betting Bonus** — 0.5% of the platform edge from your invitees' bets.
* **Direct Staking Bonus** — 7% of the CELT your invitees deposit into the Liquidity Pool.
* **Service Bonus** — a tree-based reward computed across your full subtree.

</details>

<details>

<summary>How are the affiliate commissions covered while Celestium is decentralized?</summary>

49% of total CELT supply is allocated to the Affiliate Pool, which funds the affiliate program. Direct betting bonuses are also funded from the platform edge collected on each bet.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is it allowed to create multiple accounts?</summary>

No. The protocol enforces a one-Pass-per-address rule at the contract level. Once a wallet has minted a Pass, it cannot acquire another.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can affiliate conditions be changed?</summary>

Protocol-wide parameters can be adjusted through DAO governance. Game-specific fees, however, are frozen at the moment a game is connected to the protocol and remain fixed for that game's lifetime.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is it possible to change the sponsor?</summary>

No. The inviter relationship is permanent, immutable, and recorded on-chain at the time the invitee mints their Pass. There is no contract path to change it.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What is the Liquidity Pool?</summary>

The Liquidity Pool is the protocol's primary capital infrastructure. Providers deposit CELT to back independent game operators, and in return earn a share of the house edge. See [Liquidity Pool Manual](https://celestium-1.gitbook.io/celestium-docs/staking-manual/user-manual/liquidity-pool-manual) for the full description.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Why is my daily limit 0?</summary>

Service Bonus daily claim limits are tied to your active LP principal. With a zero deposit, your daily limit is also zero. Deposit CELT into the Liquidity Pool to unlock claim capacity.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What is the sorting logic in the Celestium binary tree?</summary>

Celestium V2 uses a tree-based referral model rather than a fixed binary tree. All your invitees and their downlines contribute to your total Service Bonus volume regardless of where they sit. The binary structure described in some legacy materials applies only to V1 positions.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I choose the exact position of my affiliate in the tree?</summary>

There are no fixed positions in the V2 tree-based model. Affiliates simply bind to your address as their direct inviter at mint time.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What should I do if my affiliate falls into the wrong position?</summary>

Under V2 this situation cannot occur — invitee relationships are permanent the moment the invitee mints their Pass, and there is no positional placement to get wrong.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Are there restrictions on how to promote Celestium?</summary>

Promotion legality varies by jurisdiction. Ensuring your promotion is legal in your jurisdiction is your sole responsibility. See [Legal Aspects of Affiliate Promotion](/affiliate-manual/how-to-join-affiliate/legal-aspects-of-affiliate-promotion.md).

</details>

<details>

<summary>I sent an invitation link but cannot see them in my structure?</summary>

An invitee only appears in your structure after they successfully mint their own Pass NFT specifying your wallet address as inviter. Until that on-chain mint happens, the relationship has not been recorded.
