About the Medium referral program

Medium currently operates its Partner Program, which allows eligible writers to earn money from paywalled stories based on engagement from paying Medium members. This is a creator monetization program rather than a conventional Refer-a-Friend or affiliate program.

Eligible Partner Program writers can place stories behind Medium's paywall and receive a portion of the revenue generated from Medium memberships. Current earnings are influenced by member reading and listening time, engagement such as claps, highlights, replies, and follows, Boost bonuses, traffic sources, and other performance factors. Medium states that a member read begins counting toward earnings after the member has spent at least 30 seconds reading or listening to an eligible story.

The current program also provides a one-time conversion earning when a non-member discovers a paywalled story and becomes a paying Medium member. This replaced Medium's previous referral model, which paid writers a recurring share of a new member's subscription revenue. Medium's current Help Center explicitly states that the previous referral program ended and that new-member conversions are now handled through the Partner Program as a one-time conversion amount.

To join the current Partner Program, writers must meet Medium's eligibility requirements, including being an active Medium member, having published at least one story, having a complete profile, being at least 18 years old, and having a bank account in a supported country. Approved writers must connect Stripe and provide required taxpayer information before receiving payouts.

Medium does not currently publish a fixed percentage commission for the new-member conversion earning or a universal per-referral payout. Writer earnings are calculated dynamically according to the current Partner Program model.

For FreeReferralCodes, Medium should therefore be categorized as a Partner/Creator monetization program rather than a currently active standard referral or affiliate program.

How to Use a Medium Referral Code (Step by Step)

  1. Browse the Medium referral codes and invite links shared below. Codes near the top were shared or bumped most recently by the community.
  2. Open the referral link — it applies the referral automatically when you sign up.
  3. Create your Medium account with the details the program asks for. Use the same browser session you opened the referral link in, and avoid closing it midway, so the referral stays attached to your sign-up.
  4. Complete the qualifying step the program requires — this is usually a first action such as a verified sign-up, first order, deposit, task or withdrawal, depending on Medium's own terms.
  5. Check your Medium account for the reward. Many programs hold rewards for a verification period before releasing them, so allow the stated waiting time before contacting support.
  6. Once you're in, share your own Medium referral code here so other members can use it — and so you can track how many clicks it gets.

Codes are submitted by community members, so availability and results can vary. Always check the current terms on the official Medium site.
