The HeyGen Referral Program lets paid users earn GenCredits by inviting friends to join HeyGen. When someone signs up through your link, you’ll receive GenCredits when they sign up for HeyGen Free or Paid plans.
This program is not to be confused with the HeyGen Affiliate program, which you can review by clicking here.
🛎️ You can only enjoy the Referral Program Rewards only as a paid user (Creator/Team). You referrals can be for either for Free or Paid plans. 🛎️
First things first - How to share your referral link
Open HeyGen (web).
Go to HeyGen Referral Program on the bottom left in your account.
Copy your link and share it anywhere- email, chat, social, your site.
Your friend clicks your link, signs up, and (optionally) subscribes. Rewards apply automatically.
You can also access your referral Dashboard to view your progress.
Referral Program Rules
If you refer someone who signs up for HeyGen Free account, you'll receive +10 GenCredits ( Up to 200 GenCredits in total)
If you refer someone who signs up for HeyGen paid account (Creator or Team), you both receive +300 GenCredits.
The best part- Milestone Rewards!
The more friends you refer, the more milestones you can hit for extra bonus GenCredits!
If you refer 5 paid users, you'll receive 500 GenCredits bonus.
If you refer 10 paid users, you'll receive 1000 GenCredits bonus.
If you refer 20 paid users, you'll receive 2000 GenCredits bonus.
It’s a simple way to share HeyGen and collect extra credits along the way!
🛎️ You can use your GenCredits for many different features at HeyGen. Please check out this article here for all the details. 🛎️
Examples
Example A: Simple sign-up
Dana clicks your link and signs up → you get +10 credits.
(Sign-up bonus capped at 200 credits total across your first 20 signups.)
Example B: Subscription + milestone
Amir clicks your link, signs up (+10 to you), then subscribes → +300 to you and +300 to Amir.
Repeat for 5 friends who subscribe → you also unlock a +500 milestone bonus.
Terms & Conditions
All users can create/share links but only paid users (Creator or Team plan subscriptions) can earn the GenCredits rewards.
Rewards are automatically issued when actions happen (sign up / subscribe).
Referrals use last-click attribution. If multiple links are clicked, the last link before sign-up gets the credit.
If you cancel your plan, any unused referral-earned credits are revoked.
Referrals are for new users only (existing HeyGen accounts don’t count).
