How to earn BoTik Credits with referrals
BoTik Credits pay for avatars, sticker packs and AI lines. How referrals earn them, what each one is worth, and the anti-fraud rules worth knowing.

BoTik Credits are the in-app currency that pays for anything BoTik has to generate on a server: avatars, sticker packs, AI video and the AI lines your Stream Deck can speak. 100 credits is one dollar.
Two different things called credits
BoTik Credits are the wallet described here. ElevenLabs character credits are your quota with ElevenLabs, shown on the Go Live page, and they have nothing to do with each other. Running out of one does not affect the other.
The four ways to get credits
Where credits come from
Your wallet
Referrals
10 or 100 per person
Premium
500 every month
Credit packs
bought with PayPal
Referrals are the only one of those that costs you nothing, and they are the focus of this guide.
How referrals pay out
| When | You get | They get |
|---|---|---|
| They sign up and verify their email | 10 credits | 3 days of Premium, free |
| They upgrade to Premium | 100 credits | — |
Both halves matter. The three free Premium days mean your invite is worth something to the person receiving it, which is the difference between a referral link people use and one they ignore.
Open Referrals and copy your link.
It is your normal sign-up URL with your referral code attached, so it works anywhere a link works.
Share it where the context makes sense.
A pinned comment on a stream about your voice setup converts far better than a bare link in a bio.
Watch the history list.
Each referral shows as awaiting verification, under review, signed up, or upgraded to Premium — so you can see exactly where a payout is.
Why a referral can sit in “awaiting verification”
Referral credits are only granted once the new account verifies its email. That is deliberate: without it, the whole system is a machine for generating free credits out of throwaway addresses.
- Disposable email domains are blocked outright.
you+1@,you+2@style aliases are treated as the same address.- Several sign-ups from one IP address are flagged for a human to look at.
- There is a lifetime cap of 500 referrals per account.
Note
A referral marked "under review" is not a rejection. It means something tripped a heuristic and a person will look at it — a genuine one clears.
What credits buy
| Spend | Cost |
|---|---|
| AI avatar | 10 credits |
| Sticker pack | 40 credits |
| Stream Deck AI line | 2 credits per press |
| AI video | 40 credits per second |
So ten verified referrals is an avatar. One person upgrading to Premium is two and a half sticker packs. Anything that fails to generate is refunded automatically, and the transaction list shows every movement in and out.
Tip
If you are already paying for Premium, the 500 monthly credits arrive whether you use them or not. That is twelve avatars a year of budget sitting there — spend it on a proper set of avatars and stickers rather than letting it accumulate.
