Referral links track attribution separately for each platform
DraftKings supplies a unique URL to the Program Site to track and attribute referrals for a particular platform. A reward requires the referred person to create the account and complete the required actions through your link. Signing up without it, switching to another player’s link, refreshing or leaving the linked page before completing the process can defeat attribution even if the person later signs up and acts.
Details not recorded for this card
Supporting quotations
"Link" shall mean a unique URL provided by DraftKings that directs a referred person to the Program Site (as defined below) and allows DraftKings to track and attribute Referred Friends. A Link is specific to an individual DraftKings Platform (for example only, there are unique Links related to DraftKings Pick6 and unique Links related to DraftKings Sportsbook).
In order for a person to become a Referred Friend, the person must first click a Link. A person that clicks your Link will only be deemed a Referred Friend in the event the person successfully creates a DraftKings account after clicking on your Link and successfully completes the Committed Action(s). You can request your Link on the Program Site. In the event a person creates a DraftKings or Jackpocket account without using a Link, that person is not a Referred Friend, and you will not be entitled to a Reward. You acknowledge and accept that other Players use Links, that a referred person may have clicked the Link of another Player, and that you shall only receive the applicable Reward for the Referred Friend in the event the Referred Friend successfully creates a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and completes the Committed Action(s) through your Link. In the event a person clicks your Link but does not create a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and complete the Committed Actions(s) through your Link, including, but not limited to, clicking another Player’s Link before completing the Committed Action(s), refreshing the webpage your Link directed them to before creating a DraftKings account or completing the Committed Action(s), or otherwise leaving the webpage your Link directed them to before creating a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and completing the Committed Action(s), such person is not a Referred Friend, and you will not be entitled to a Reward, even if the person later creates a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and completes the Committed Action(s).

Completing a referral after leaving or refreshing the linked page can lose the reward
Request your link on the Program Site. A person must first click it and create an account and complete the promotional actions through that link. Signing up without a link earns you no reward. Clicking another player’s link, refreshing or otherwise leaving the linked page before completion can mean the person is not your Referred Friend even if they later sign up and act. Required actions come from the promotion and can carry location conditions. Fraud or rule-violation suspicions can also lead to withheld, delayed, voided or reclaimed rewards; attributable completion alone does not guarantee payment.

Reward errors are disclaimed and suspected misconduct can trigger withholding

Your reward follows the link’s product; your friend’s follows the completed action
The referrer’s reward type depends on the platform associated with the link the friend used: the text’s example gives a DFS reward for a DFS link even if the friend completes a Sportsbook action. If the promotion also rewards the friend, that reward, if any, follows the platform where the friend completes the required action, regardless of link type. You can receive only one reward per friend, who must never have had any DraftKings or Jackpocket account. Completion still must be attributed through your link and meet the applicable Promotional Terms.
Details not recorded for this card
Supporting quotations
The Reward you receive for a Referred Friend is based on the Link the Referred Friend used when directed to the Platform and the specific DraftKings Platform such Link was associated with. For example only, in the event a person clicks your Link associated with daily fantasy, but then completes the Committed Action(s) associated with a sportsbook Program promotion, you will receive a DFS Reward. However, in the event a Program promotion provides bonuses or rewards to your Referred Friend as well, the Referred Friend will receive the Reward, in the event any, based on the Platform the Referred Friend completed their Committed Action(s), regardless of the Platform associated with the Link the Referred Friend used. You shall only be eligible for one (1) Reward per Referred Friend. For clarity, to be deemed a Referred Friend, the person must not have or ever had an account of any type with DraftKings or Jackpocket.
In order for a person to become a Referred Friend, the person must first click a Link. A person that clicks your Link will only be deemed a Referred Friend in the event the person successfully creates a DraftKings account after clicking on your Link and successfully completes the Committed Action(s). You can request your Link on the Program Site. In the event a person creates a DraftKings or Jackpocket account without using a Link, that person is not a Referred Friend, and you will not be entitled to a Reward. You acknowledge and accept that other Players use Links, that a referred person may have clicked the Link of another Player, and that you shall only receive the applicable Reward for the Referred Friend in the event the Referred Friend successfully creates a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and completes the Committed Action(s) through your Link. In the event a person clicks your Link but does not create a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and complete the Committed Actions(s) through your Link, including, but not limited to, clicking another Player’s Link before completing the Committed Action(s), refreshing the webpage your Link directed them to before creating a DraftKings account or completing the Committed Action(s), or otherwise leaving the webpage your Link directed them to before creating a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and completing the Committed Action(s), such person is not a Referred Friend, and you will not be entitled to a Reward, even if the person later creates a DraftKings or Jackpocket account and completes the Committed Action(s).
Each refer-a-friend promotion, Reward, and/or other offer in connection with the Program may have additional terms, conditions, rules, and/or eligibility requirements associated with it and which will be immediately binding and enforceable (“Promotional Terms”). The Promotional Tems will either (i) be posted on the Program Site or Platform or (ii) be otherwise made available or communicated to you. All Promotional Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into the Terms in their entirety, including any amendments made to the Promotional Terms at any time. DraftKings reserves the right to amend any Promotional Terms at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, for any reason or no reason, without notice to you. You are solely responsible for reading and understanding the Promotional Terms applicable to the promotions that you enter or in which you participate in connection with the Program and any applicable Rewards. In the event of a conflict between the Terms and any Promotional Terms, the Promotional Terms shall govern, and nothing in the Terms shall alter, amend, modify, invalidate, or void any term or condition in the Promotional Terms.

The clause sets a combined $2,500 cap on Casino and Sportsbook rewards per calendar year for “(i) Links sent while you were physically located in New Jersey and (ii) Referred Friends that created their DraftKings account while physically located in New Jersey.” It names the sender’s location when sending and the friend’s location at account creation; it does not cap every product’s rewards. The wording joins the two categories with “and” without expressly explaining whether either connection alone triggers the cap or both are required. Further discretionary and promotional limits may apply.
