How to use the Backpack referral code
Open the sign-up page
Click our referral link. It opens Backpack's sign-up page with the referral already attached.
Check the “Add referral” field
Make sure it shows pepebrothers. If the field is empty (it can happen with some browsers or ad-blockers), type pepebrothers yourself — lowercase, no spaces.
Create your account & verify
Finish sign-up with your email, then complete identity verification (KYC). Our step-by-step Backpack sign-up guide walks through each screen.
Trade with 5% off
That's it. Your trading fees include the 5% referral discount from then on.
What you get with code pepebrothers
Backpack pays affiliates a share of the trading fees generated by the users they refer. Through Backpack's flexible commission sharing, approved affiliates can pass part of that share back to you as a trading-fee discount. We do exactly that: with our code, you get 5% off your trading fees.
According to Backpack's own documentation, commission sharing is the only way for a new user to get discounted fees apart from the regular VIP tiers (earned through volume or BP staking — see Backpack fees explained). One exception: the discount does not apply to Equity Perps trading fees.
What 5% off looks like in practice
| Monthly taker volume | Fees at 0.10% | With 5% off | Saved per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| $10,000 | $10.00 | $9.50 | $6 |
| $100,000 | $100.00 | $95.00 | $60 |
| $1,000,000 | $1,000.00 | $950.00 | $600 |
Illustrative example at a 0.10% taker rate. Your actual rate depends on your fee tier and market.
Honest take: 5% won't change your life on small volumes, but it's free, it adds up on active accounts, and it's the only discount a brand-new account can get. There's no reason to sign up without a code.
Backpack invite code, promo code, coupon — what's the difference?
None. People search for a Backpack invite code, a Backpack promo code or a Backpack coupon, but Backpack doesn't run a separate promo or coupon system. The referral code is the invite code, and it's entered in the same “Add referral” field.
You may also see pages promising “sign-up bonuses” or free tokens. Backpack's BP token airdrop already happened in March 2026, and there is currently no cash bonus for opening an account — details on our Backpack sign-up bonus page.
Backpack referral code not working? Quick fixes
Check the spelling
Type pepebrothers exactly — lowercase, one word, no spaces. Or use the copy button above.
Enter it before KYC
The code has to be on the account before identity verification. After that, it can't be added.
New accounts only
Referral codes only apply to new sign-ups. An existing Backpack account can't be switched to a new code.
Check your region
Backpack isn't available everywhere. In the US it's licensed in a list of states — check Backpack availability in the USA.
How the Backpack referral program works
If you want to refer friends yourself, here's how Backpack's program works, based on its official documentation:
- Referrers earn 10% of the trading fees generated by the users they bring in, once those users complete KYC.
- Rebates are credited weekly and are available for up to 24 months after the referred user becomes eligible.
- Equity Perps trading fees don't count toward referral rebates.
- Approved affiliates can use flexible commission sharing to give part of their share back as a fee discount — which is how our code gives you 5% off.

What is the Backpack Exchange referral code?
Our code is pepebrothers. Enter it in the “Add referral” field at sign-up, or open backpack.exchange/join/pepebrothers, to get 5% off your trading fees.
Where do I enter a Backpack referral code?
In the “Add referral” field on the sign-up page. Opening a referral link usually fills it in for you — just check it before you continue.
Can I add a referral code after signing up?
Not after identity verification. Backpack can't add a referral to an account that completed KYC without one, so enter the code when you create your account.
What discount does the code give?
5% off your Backpack trading fees. It doesn't apply to Equity Perps trading fees, and there's no separate cash or token bonus.
Is there a Backpack promo code or invite code?
They're the same thing. Backpack has no separate promo or coupon system — the referral code is the invite code.
Why is my referral code not working?
Usually a typo, entering it after KYC, trying it on an existing account, or signing up from an unsupported region. Type pepebrothers exactly on a new account before verification.
How much do Backpack referrers earn?
Per Backpack's documentation, 10% of the trading fees generated by the verified users they refer, paid weekly for up to 24 months.
