Hi everyone!

For those participating in the IPhR Ambassador Program, we’ve noticed that some referrals weren’t being counted because the referred participants didn’t enter the referral code manually.

To solve this, we’ve introduced pre-filled referral links! These links automatically apply your ambassador code when someone registers through them.

You can now find your unique pre-filled link in your ambassador dashboard:
