When your Hunter Rank reaches 6 or higher, you can invite other users to Monster Hunter Now using your exclusive referral code. When your invited friend progresses through the Friend Quests, you and your friend will each receive a gift. (A maximum of 20 Friend Quest rewards can be received per account.)
Notes:
Only users who play Monster Hunter Now for the first time can enter a referral code. Users who have played in the past cannot use this feature.
The person who sends the referral code and the person who receives it will automatically become friends.
If the person who sends the referral code and the person who receives it stop being friends, they will become unable to receive the gifts. Even if they become friends again, neither will receive the gifts.
Rewards between the person who sends the referral code and the person who receives it are different.
Sharing your referral code:
Tap the [Hunter Icon] on the Main screen.
Tap [Friends].
Tap [Add Friends].
Scroll down to find your referral code. Copy the code and share it using your preferred method.
Notes:
If you only want to copy the referral code, tap the middle icon among the three icons to the right of the referral code.
If you want to send a message along with the referral code through a registered social media account, tap the icon at the right.
To change your referral code, tap the icon on the left (your previous referral code will become invalid).
If the user who used the referral code starts playing and progresses through the invitation quests, such as reaching Hunter Rank 20, the user will receive various gifts accordingly.
Using a referral code:
Download Monster Hunter Now from Google Play or the App Store.
Enter your birthdate.
Tap [New Player] and follow the on-screen instructions to create your account. For iOS devices, you'll need a Google or Apple account, and for Android devices, a Google account is required.
When you reach the referral code input screen, enter the referral code shared with you by another user.
※You can opt to enter the referral code later from the Friend list that is unlocked when your Hunter Rank reaches 6. However, you need to do this within 72 hours of creating your account.
※If you start the game using a referral code, the progress of your Friend Quests will be shared with the player who invited you. For details, please refer to the Information shared with others FAQ.
