BULK Exchange Referral Code: Use Code YETI to Get Mainnet Access
The BULK Exchange referral code is YETI. Mainnet is invite-only — use a referral link plus an access code to get in, then trade and earn your own codes to invite others.
TL;DR
The BULK Exchange referral code is YETI. Mainnet launched September 5, 2026, and trading is invite-only: your referral link now needs to be paired with an access code to bring in a new user. Pre-depositors got a starting weekly code batch; everyone earns one more per $1M traded. Codes reset weekly.
BULK Exchange referral code: YETI
Use it at app.bulk.trade when connecting your wallet. Your own AURA is not affected by using a referral code — it just links your account to the referrer.
Mainnet is invite-only as of September 5, 2026. A referral code or link alone isn’t enough to get a brand-new trader in — they also need an access code from someone who already has mainnet access. That’s the biggest change from the pre-deposit era, when anyone could join with just a code.
How to Use the BULK Referral Code Now
- Go to app.bulk.trade
- Get an access code from an existing trader — or use referral link
YETIif the referrer has spare codes - Connect your Solana wallet (Phantom, Backpack, or Solflare)
- Deposit USDC (minimum $10) and start trading
- The access code auto-attaches your account to the referrer’s link — no separate step needed
That’s it. The referral code doesn’t reduce your allocation, doesn’t affect your deposit, and doesn’t change your AURA.
What Changed From Pre-Deposit to Mainnet Referrals
| Pre-Deposit (closed) | Mainnet (live, invite-only) | |
|---|---|---|
| To join with a referral | Deposit USDC, done | Need a referral link and an access code |
| Qualification | Hold $100+ for 72 continuous hours | No hold-time rule — access code use is the gate |
| Referral cap | None | None on referrals; limited by your weekly code count |
| Referrer reward | 1 AURA per $100 held by referral | Drawn from a dedicated referral AURA pool as referred accounts trade |
Your referral link itself carried over unchanged from pre-deposit — it’s the access-code requirement on top of it that’s new.
How Access Codes Work
Access codes are the actual scarce resource during invite-only mainnet, not deposit size:
- Pre-depositors received a starting weekly allotment — 5 to 15 codes, based on whether their pre-deposit exceeded $1,000 or $100,000.
- New traders start with zero codes and earn one more per $1,000,000 in trading volume, each week.
- Codes reset every week. Unused codes do not roll over — spend them or lose them.
- Using a code on a new referral automatically attaches that referral to your link, so you don’t need to separately share both.
Implication: the bigger your trading volume, the more people you can bring in each week. Referral growth is now tied to being an active trader, not just an early depositor.

Why This Still Compounds
Even gated by codes, referral reach scales with your own trading activity — which is a healthier growth loop for BULK than the old deposit-only model, and a better one for you if you’re an active trader:
| Weekly trading volume | Access codes earned | Referral ceiling |
|---|---|---|
| $1M | 1 | 1 new trader/week |
| $10M | 10 | 10 new traders/week |
| $50M | 50 | 50 new traders/week |
Combine your pre-deposit starting allotment (if you had one) with volume-earned codes, and use your referral link to bring each one in.
