Refer a Friend ended — no replacement

Humble Bundle Referral Code

Q: Does Humble Bundle still have a referral program?

No. Humble ended Refer a Friend on 13 June 2024 and nothing has replaced it.

Q: Why did Humble Bundle end it?

Humble's own announcement gave the reason directly: the program had reached the end of its life because of an unmanageable spike in referral abuse over the preceding months. Humble said it was investigating other options offering similar benefits, but nothing has launched since.

Q: What did the old program pay?

Introducing a friend to Humble Choice earned $8 in Humble Wallet credit once they subscribed, valid for new subscribers only. That credit went a long way against Humble Store prices, which is part of why it was so heavily abused.

Q: Is the Humble Partner program the same thing?

No, and this is the most common confusion. Partner is an affiliate scheme for creators and publishers, paying a percentage of a referred Humble Choice subscription. In October 2024 Humble moved it to the Impact affiliate network, which broke every existing partner link — creators found their old links stopped earning without much notice. It requires an Impact account.

Q: So can I earn anything by sharing Humble with a friend?

Not as an ordinary customer. There is currently no reward available for a friend referral. If you are monetising traffic rather than inviting a friend, the Partner program via Impact is the route.

Refer a Friend ended June 2024

Humble Bundle sells games, software and ebooks with a charity split. Its Refer a Friend program ended in June 2024 due to referral abuse and has not been replaced.

Why Choose Humble Bundle?

Ended over referral abuse

Humble closed the program on 13 June 2024, citing an unmanageable spike in abuse, and named no replacement date.

The old reward was wallet credit

Referring a new Humble Choice subscriber earned $8 in Humble Wallet credit — new subscribers only.

Partner program is a different thing

The creator affiliate scheme still exists but moved to Impact in October 2024, invalidating older partner links.

One point of confusion worth clearing up: Humble still runs a Partner program, but it is an affiliate scheme for creators and publishers rather than a friend referral, and it pays a percentage of a referred Humble Choice subscription. In October 2024 Humble moved that program to the Impact affiliate network, which broke every existing partner link — creators found their old links stopped earning without much notice. If you are looking to monetise traffic rather than invite a friend, that is the route, and it requires an Impact account.

For an ordinary customer wanting to share Humble with a friend, there is currently no reward available.
