# Cards are part of the RWA NFTFI ecosystem.

> And if you are already in it - you are not starting from zero.

## Your connections carry over

Automatic synchronization of referral connections runs between RWA NFTFI and the cards platform. A person you invited to RWA NFTFI is locked to you on cards as well - automatically, without their choice and without any way to change it.

> Someone else's link, persuasion, chance - none of it has power over a connection from the ecosystem.

## How it works

The system recognizes a person by their email address:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Arrival">
    Your invitee comes to the cards platform - by any path, even someone else's link.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Email and code">
    They enter their email and confirm it with a code.
  </Step>

  <Step title="The check">
    The system checks against the RWA NFTFI base and finds the inviter.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Your inviter: you">
    They see the screen "You are already in the RWA NFTFI ecosystem. Your inviter: you" - and [join your team](/en/royalty-program).
  </Step>
</Steps>

> The sponsor is fixed once and forever.

Every binding is recorded with its exact time and source - any dispute is resolved by the system's records, not by words.

### Two conditions for a correct binding

1. The same email address as on RWA NFTFI.
2. That address is confirmed - there is a confirmation button in the profile.

Nothing else is required of you. Even the order does not matter: if your invitee reached the cards platform before you did - they are still locked to you from the moment of their registration, and the connections come together automatically when you arrive.

## What carries over - and what does not

<Columns cols={2}>
  <Card title="Carries over" icon="check">
    The "who invited whom" connection - guaranteed.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Does not transfer" icon="xmark">
    Teams, volumes, ranks and balances.
  </Card>
</Columns>

Exactly one thing carries over - and it is guaranteed. Everything else the cards platform starts from zero: the starting line is the same for everyone.

## Why register yourself, and early

Your existing people are held by the system - but new people only come through your referral link, and it appears after you [register](/en/how-to-get-your-card). Plus your invite counter and queue position start working for you from day one.

## New to the ecosystem?

You are free: enter an inviter's code or continue without one on [the waitlist](/en/how-to-get-your-card). At the sales launch a sponsor is needed to purchase - assigned automatically or by code.

## Sponsors and codes: nothing to worry about

The Royalty Program starts from zero on September 29, 2026 - together with sales and its own marketing. The waitlist does not decide your place in it: submitting an application does not put you into the partner structure, which forms the moment the program opens.

Apply either way:

* no sponsor - apply;
* a link was sent to you and you never opened it - apply;
* your sponsor has not confirmed their email yet - apply.

None of this blocks your application, and none of it costs anything. A sponsor code can be added at any point - from today until the launch, and on the launch day itself. For the launch we are preparing a separate mechanism so that every referral link is recorded correctly and every connection is fixed fairly; we will explain how it works closer to the date.

If you are already in the RWA NFTFI ecosystem, your sponsor is automatically whoever invited you there: it is not a choice and not a race of links - the connection carries over as it is, and no referral link overrides it. Everyone else enters a code now, or continues without one and adds it later.

**Every confirmed application immediately gets a personal referral code and link.** That code becomes your working code at launch: the links you send today do not expire.

> The synchronization has no expiry.

It is not a one-time launch event: someone who joins you on RWA NFTFI a year from now and comes for a card later will be locked to you automatically all the same.
