How do referral IDs and club IDs work?

glossary Independent educational Q&A. Last updated 2026-07-09.

Short answer: A club ID usually helps you find a specific club, while a referral ID or agent reference may identify who introduced or supports a player. The exact meaning can vary by app and community, so beginners should confirm instructions from a trusted guide before submitting any ID.

Simple distinction

Club ID: points to the club/community you want to join.
Referral ID: may connect your signup to an agent, guide, or support contact.
Both should be verified before use because typos or random IDs can route you to the wrong place.

Safe handling

Use IDs only from a source you trust.
Save screenshots or notes of the instructions you followed.
Ask support what each ID is used for before proceeding if unclear.
