# Scale with Service Bonus

## V2: Scaling with the Service Bonus

### 1. Qualify for the Service Bonus

To start earning service bonuses you need three things in place:

* A membership Pass NFT in your wallet.
* A deposit of at least **100,000 CELT** into the primary Liquidity Pool.
* Active referrals — invitees who mint their own Pass naming you as their inviter.

### 2. Understand the Power of the Referral Tree

V2 replaces the rigid binary leg model with a flexible tree-based system. Every invitee binds directly to your address, and their full downline contributes to your subtree volume.

The contract enforces a **Monotony Guarantee**: once a service bonus balance is recorded against your Pass, it can only increase. It will never decrease.

### 3. Claim Your Daily Rewards

Service bonus claims are rate-limited per UTC day. The cap is the lower of:

* **10%** of your current Liquidity Pool principal, or
* the **global hard cap** — default **12,000 CELT**.

A zero LP principal yields a zero daily limit. To unlock claim capacity you must hold liquidity in the pool. See the worked table in [Service Bonus (Tree-Based) & Daily Limits](/affiliate-manual/affiliate-explanation/service-bonus-and-daily-limits.md#daily-claim-formula).

### 4. Reinvest, Multiply, and Govern

Re-depositing your claimed rewards into the Liquidity Pool raises your principal, which raises tomorrow's daily cap. Active liquidity providers also gain governance weight inside Celestium Protocol DAO LLC, capped at 5% per address.

## V1: Legacy Earn Matching Bonus

The legacy program required a Pass and a stake in the legacy infrastructure. It used a binary tree with weak/strong leg accounting — see [Service Bonus (Tree-Based) & Daily Limits](/affiliate-manual/affiliate-explanation/service-bonus-and-daily-limits.md) for the full description of the legacy matching mechanic and the V1 → V2 transition.

Daily claims under V1 were capped at the lower of 10% of staked volume or **12,000,000 CELT**. Reinvestment of claimed rewards back into staking was the recommended way to compound the position.
