# TradingView referral code — $15 off a paid plan

> Join TradingView through this invite (tradingview.com/pricing/?share_your_love=bhtv1) and you receive a $15 discount coupon towards a paid plan once you upgrade, while the referrer receives $15 of subscription credit. The joiner must be a genuinely new user and must become a paid member within three months of joining. The coupon lasts one year, covers monthly and annual Essential, Plus and Premium plans, excludes market-data add-ons, and must be entered manually at web checkout — it never applies to renewals automatically. Rewards are in US dollars.

## Benefit
Join TradingView through this invite and, once you upgrade to a paid plan, TradingView issues you a $15 discount coupon towards a subscription — and credits the person who invited you with $15 to spend on their own plan. Two conditions decide whether it pays: you must be a genuinely new user who has never held a TradingView account, and you must become a paid member within three months of joining. The coupon is valid for a year, works on monthly or annual Essential, Plus and Premium plans, and is entered manually in the promo-code field — TradingView does not apply it to renewals automatically. It cannot be used for market-data subscriptions, transferred or shared.

## Eligibility
New TradingView users only — the account must never have existed before, and TradingView's duplicate detection blocks the bonus if the person following the link already has an account or registered earlier. You must upgrade to a paid plan within three months of joining for either side to be rewarded. The coupon covers Essential, Plus and Premium subscriptions, monthly or annual; it excludes market-data add-ons and cannot be combined with other promotional offers. Rewards are denominated in US dollars, not pounds.

## How it works
1. Tap 'Open TradingView' below — the invite is carried in the link, so nothing needs to be typed at sign-up
2. Create your free account. Use the free plan for as long as you like: the clock that matters is the three months from joining in which an upgrade still qualifies
3. When you upgrade, pick the plan you actually want — Essential, Plus or Premium, monthly or annual
4. Apply the $15 coupon in the promo-code field when you take the paid plan — TradingView never applies it for you, and never applies it automatically to a renewal
5. Subscribe on the website rather than through the iOS or Android app — in-app subscriptions cannot take the coupon, and an existing mobile subscription must have auto-renewal cancelled first

## About TradingView

TradingView is an American-British charting, analysis and social-trading platform used by retail and professional traders to read markets, build indicators and share ideas. The important framing for a UK reader: **it is software, not a broker.** A subscription buys charts, screeners, alerts and data tooling. It does connect to third-party brokers so an order can be fired from a chart, but the account, the money and the regulation sit with that broker.

There is a genuinely usable free tier. This referral only becomes worth anything if you were going to pay.

## What each side gets

TradingView's help centre puts both halves in one sentence: invite a friend and *"you will get $15 as a reward to spend on our advanced subscriptions"*, while *"your friend will receive a $15 discount coupon"*.

| | New joiner (you) | Referrer |
|---|---|---|
| Reward | **$15 discount coupon** | **$15** of subscription credit |
| Paid in | A coupon code | Account credit |
| Conditional on | Upgrading within three months of joining | The same upgrade |
| Hold before use | None — it is a coupon | **15 days** |
| Expiry | **One year** from issue | — |

Note the currency. TradingView prices in **US dollars**, so a £-denominated card will convert at the day's rate, and a card without fee-free foreign spending may add a non-sterling transaction fee to the purchase.

## The two conditions that decide whether you get anything

This is not a sign-up bonus. It is an **upgrade** bonus, and it fails in two specific ways:

**1. You must be genuinely new.** TradingView runs duplicate detection and states the consequence plainly: *"if the person who followed your link has another account or registered earlier, the referral bonus will be unavailable."* A dormant account from years ago, or a second account on another email, silently disqualifies the reward. Nothing tells you at the time.

**2. You must upgrade within three months.** The reward is only available where the friend *"becomes a paid member within 3 months of joining us"*. Sign up now, trial the free plan for a season, subscribe in month four — and the coupon never existed. If you already know you want Premium, use the invite on the way in rather than after you have been browsing for six months.

## Using the coupon without losing it

Four operational rules, each of which has cost somebody their discount:

- **It is entered by hand.** The code *"does not automatically apply to future renewals"* — you *"purchase a new subscription manually and enter the coupon code in the promo code field"*. Nobody applies it for you.
- **It is a web transaction.** Redemption happens on the site (profile icon → **Refer a friend** → **Redeem**). If you already subscribe through the iOS or Android app, cancel auto-renewal of the mobile subscription first — Apple and Google own that billing relationship, not TradingView.
- **It has a shelf life.** Valid for **one year** from issue. Long, but not indefinite.
- **It does not cover market data.** Exchange data add-ons are billed separately and excluded, as are other promotional offers running at the same time.

## Where the $15 actually lands

The discount is a flat dollar amount, so its *value to you* depends entirely on what you buy:

| Purchase shape | How the $15 behaves |
|---|---|
| Monthly plan | A large slice of the first month, then full price |
| Annual plan | A smaller proportion of a bigger bill, but the plan itself is the cheaper way to buy |
| Upgrade mid-subscription | TradingView lets credit extend an active plan by a month or a year of the same type or higher |
| Market data add-on | Not covered at all |

If you are on the fence about paying at all, the honest answer is to stay on the free tier — a $15 coupon is not a reason to start a subscription you did not want. If you were already going to pay, taking this route costs nothing and the coupon is real.

## What this page does not claim

We do not publish a referral **code** for TradingView, because there isn't one to type: the mechanism is a link, and the "share_your_love" value in it is a URL parameter rather than a coupon. Your own $15 coupon is issued by TradingView to your account after you upgrade. Any page presenting a "TradingView referral code" you can paste at sign-up has invented it.

## How we verified this

We read TradingView's own help-centre articles on the referral programme, the refer-a-friend coupon and the "why didn't we get the bonus" case, and cross-checked the earnings mechanics against a live refer-a-friend dashboard — which is where the **15-day hold** wording comes from, since it appears in the product rather than in the help centre.

## Source documentation

Terms and quotations are taken from TradingView's Help Centre: **"What's the TradingView referral program?"** (the $15/$15 split, the new-user requirement and the three-month upgrade window), **"How does the Refer-a-Friend coupon code work?"** (one-year validity, monthly and annual plans, manual entry in the promo field, no automatic application to renewals, market-data exclusion, non-transferability), **"How do I spend my referral earnings?"** (website-only redemption, extending an active plan, cancelling a mobile subscription's auto-renewal) and **"I referred a friend and we didn't get the referral bonus. Why?"** (duplicate detection). The 15-day hold on referral earnings is quoted from TradingView's own Refer a friend dashboard. Company background is from Wikipedia's TradingView article. Subscription prices, plan names and programme terms are set by TradingView and change without notice — HonestCodes link-checks this referral daily and re-reads the terms on the date shown at the top of this page.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the TradingView refer-a-friend offer still running in 2026?

Yes — verified on the date shown at the top of this page. TradingView's own help centre states the terms without ambiguity: invite a friend, and "you will get $15 as a reward to spend on our advanced subscriptions" while "your friend will receive a $15 discount coupon". There is no published end date and no cap on how many people can join through one link.

### Do I get the $15 immediately when I sign up?

No, and this is the condition that disqualifies most people. The coupon is issued to new account holders who joined via a referral link and then upgraded to a paid plan — and TradingView requires that upgrade to happen "within 3 months of joining". Sign up today, stay on the free plan for four months and then subscribe, and the referral is void — the $15 on each side depends on that window. If you know you want a paid plan, the invite is worth using on the way in.

### Is it $15 or £15? I am in the UK.

It is fifteen US dollars. TradingView prices its subscriptions and its referral rewards in USD, so the sterling value of the discount moves with the exchange rate and, on a card without fee-free foreign spending, may attract a non-sterling transaction fee on the purchase itself. That is an honest caveat rather than a dealbreaker: the coupon reduces the dollar price of the subscription, whatever the pound is doing that week.

### Which plans does the $15 coupon work on?

Monthly and annual subscriptions to TradingView's paid tiers — Essential, Plus and Premium. It does not work on market-data subscriptions, which are the exchange feeds you add on top of a plan, and it cannot be combined with other promotional offers. On an annual plan the discount is a smaller proportion of a larger bill; on a monthly Essential plan it is a meaningful chunk of the first month.

### Does the coupon apply automatically when my subscription renews?

No. TradingView is explicit that the code "does not automatically apply to future renewals" — you must purchase a new subscription manually and enter the code in the promo-code field. Treat it as a one-shot discount you consciously spend, not a standing rate. It stays valid for one year from issue, so there is no rush, but nobody will apply it on your behalf.

### Can I subscribe through the iPhone or Android app and still use it?

Not directly. Referral rewards are redeemed on the website — profile icon, then Refer a friend, then Redeem — and a coupon is entered in the promo field at web checkout. If you already subscribed inside a mobile app, TradingView requires you to cancel auto-renewal of that mobile subscription first. Apple and Google take their own cut of in-app purchases, which is why the discount route runs through the browser.

### Why did my friend's referral bonus not arrive?

Almost always duplicate detection. TradingView's system checks whether the person following the link is genuinely new: "if the person who followed your link has another account or registered earlier, the referral bonus will be unavailable." An old account you forgot about, a second account on a different email, or having visited and registered before the link was used will all silently disqualify the reward. The other common cause is the three-month upgrade window closing.

### Is there a waiting period before the credit can be spent?

Yes on the earning side. TradingView's refer-a-friend dashboard states that "all earnings are subject to a 15-day hold before they can be used" — a standard guard against refunds and chargebacks being clawed back after the reward has been spent. Your own $15 coupon as a new joiner is issued as a coupon code rather than a cash balance, so what you are waiting on is the upgrade, not the hold.

### Is TradingView a broker? Is my money at risk?

TradingView is a charting, analysis and social platform for traders and investors — an American-British company whose product is software, not a brokerage. What you are buying with a subscription is access to charts, indicators, screeners and alerts. It does integrate with third-party brokers so orders can be placed from a chart, but the money, the regulatory relationship and any capital risk sit with that broker, not with TradingView. This page promotes a software discount, nothing more.
