19. Referral & Points
Earn points by using the app and referring friends โ then cash out via GCash.
What's this for? The Referral & Points system rewards you for being an active member of the Sabong Market community. Earn points by posting listings, completing transactions, and referring friends โ then cash out โฑ300 via GCash once you hit 300 points.
How to Access
Go to Menu โ Referral & Points to see your points balance, referral link, points history, and cashout requests.
How to Earn Points
| Action | Points | Cash Value |
| Post your first listing | +20 pts | โฑ20 |
| Sell an item (min โฑ500 transaction) | +100 pts | โฑ100 |
| Complete your first purchase (min โฑ500) | +60 pts | โฑ60 |
| Your referred friend completes a purchase | +80 pts | โฑ80 |
| Your referred seller makes a sale | +120 pts | โฑ120 |
| You joined via referral + completed a transaction | +40 pts | โฑ40 |
Note: Points from transactions require a minimum transaction value of โฑ500 and unlock after a 48-hour cooling period. This prevents abuse.
Confirmed vs. Pending Points
Your points balance shows two numbers:
- Confirmed โ points that have passed the 48-hour cooling period and are ready to use for cashout
- Pending โ points earned from recent transactions that are still in the 48-hour waiting period
Only confirmed points count toward the 300-point cashout threshold.
Your Referral Link
Your unique referral link is based on your username:
sabongmarket.app/ref/yourusername
- Go to Menu โ Referral & Points
- Tap Copy to copy your link, or tap Share to send it via any app
- When someone registers using your link and completes a transaction, you earn referral points
Tip: Share your link in sabong group chats, Facebook groups, or with fellow breeders. The more active referrals you have, the faster you earn.
Cashing Out
Once you have 300 confirmed points (= โฑ300), you can request a GCash cashout:
- Go to Menu โ Referral & Points
- Tap the Cash Out button (appears when you have 300+ confirmed points)
- Enter your GCash number and the name on your GCash account
- Tap Submit Request
- Your request goes into a review queue
- We manually review and send the GCash within 24โ48 hours
- You'll receive a push notification when your cashout is approved and when it's paid
Note: You can only have one pending cashout request at a time. Once it's paid, you can request another.
Points History
The Points History section shows every point event โ what you earned, when, and whether it's confirmed or still pending. Pending entries show a "Pending" label until the 48-hour period passes.
My Cashouts
The My Cashouts section shows all your cashout requests and their status:
- Pending โ submitted, waiting for admin review
- Approved โ approved, GCash transfer in progress
- Paid โ GCash sent to your number
- Rejected โ rejected with a reason (points are refunded automatically)
Important: Only use your own GCash number. Cashout requests with mismatched names may be rejected. Points deducted for a rejected cashout are automatically refunded to your balance.
