The Partner Portal
The partner portal at bdm.whale.ag is where KOLs, influencers, and business developers earn a share of the trading fees their network generates. It is a separate workspace from the trading terminal, built around one idea: the volume you bring to whale.ag pays you continuously, settled on-chain to a wallet you control. whale.ag never holds your earnings — the money moves to your address, and every payout links back to its transaction.
How partners earn
You earn a portion of the trading fees produced by the traders and communities in your network. This is a share of real, ongoing activity rather than a one-time bounty: every trader you refer, and every community and sub-partner beneath them, feeds a fee stream, and your slice of that stream accrues to you automatically. Because settlement is on-chain and non-custodial, there is no balance for whale.ag to freeze or lose — earnings land in the wallet you set.
The portal is transparent by design. Network volume, fees, pending commission, and paid earnings are all shown to you, and each settled payout carries an on-chain transaction link you can inspect. Nothing about your economics is hidden behind a support ticket.
Building a multi-level network
Your network is a tree. At the top sits whale.ag; beneath it sit partners, and beneath them sit communities and the traders they refer. You bring traders and communities onto the platform, and you can also recruit sub-partners and place communities under you, forming your own downline. You earn on everything that flows through the structure below you, not just the accounts you personally sign up.
For each partner or community directly beneath you, you decide the economics by setting a cede — the portion of the fee you pass down to them. Whatever you do not cede, you keep. Cedes are forward-looking only: when you change one, it applies to future activity, and earnings already accrued are never re-routed. That means you can restructure your network — re-parent a node, add a new one, or pause one — without ever clawing back or rewriting what has already been earned.
The Network page
The Network page is where you see how your whole structure is performing and shape it. A KPI strip across the top gives you network volume, network fee, pending commission with an inline claim, and all-time earnings at a glance, alongside your own position — your role and the share of the fee you receive.
Beneath the KPIs, the downline table lists your direct children, each sub-partner and community shown with its subtree volume, what you keep from it, and its cut. Any row expands to drill into the branch below it, so a deep network stays navigable from one screen. When you want to adjust the split with a direct child, the cede editor is a slider with a live “you keep / they get” readout; the change is validated on the server and applied to future activity only.
The page is also where you grow the network. The controls below cover onboarding and attribution:
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Onboard a community | Adds a community beneath you with its own name, its own payout wallet, and its cede, then returns an invite code and a shareable link. Its economics stay separate from yours. |
| Member codes | Codes that attribute the traders who redeem them to you. |
| Onboarding codes | Codes whose redeemer joins as a community under you at a preset cede. |
| Members table | The traders referred into your network, each with volume, deposits, and what you earn from them. |
| Private notes | Upstream-only annotations on a sub-node or member, visible to you and those above you, never to the subject. |
The Payouts page
The Payouts page is where earnings become money in your wallet. It centers on your claimable balance and the action to claim it, with all-time earned and paid shown alongside as stat cards, and a full credit history below.
| Element | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Claimable balance | Your current claimable figure, with a Claim action. |
| Earned / Paid | All-time earned and all-time paid, as stat cards. |
| Credit history | Each settlement epoch with its amount, status, and a link to its on-chain transaction. |
Claims are paid on-chain to your payout wallet. On-chain claiming is a capability of the portal; where it is not yet live for you, the page still shows your pending earnings, so what you are owed is always visible.
The Settings page
Settings holds the three things that define how you are paid. Your payout wallet is the connected, verified address earnings are sent to. Your network position shows your role and your share of the fee. The payout contract card links to the live on-chain distributor when it is configured, so you can verify for yourself where payouts originate.
Good to know
Everything in the portal is auditable: volumes, fees, and payouts are all surfaced to you, and settled payouts carry an on-chain link. Cedes protect the past — because a cede change only affects future activity, restructuring your network never re-routes what has already been earned. Communities you onboard are self-contained, each with its own payout wallet and its own code, keeping their economics cleanly separated from yours. And as everywhere on whale.ag, you are paid to your own wallet: settlement moves the money on-chain to the address you control.
