Referral Bonus

Hey everyone! So I referred my friend a while ago. He directly created a dropbox account using my referral link and a downloaded the app (months later) on his computer. His PC did not previously have the dropbox application.

 

When I go to my settings and look at the bonuses I got from referrals, a "waiting to install" shows up next to his email. Any help?

Thanks!

    Was it the full Dropbox application, downloaded from the Dropbox site, or was it the Dropbox for S Mode app from the Microsoft store? It needs to be the full application from the Dropbox website. The app from any of the stores (Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc.) is a mobile app and doesn't qualify for referrals.

        Hey karimkz, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

         

        May we reach out via email to have a further look internally?
