With the next Referral Season, we’re making a change to the way referrals work in Albion Online. From October 1, 2025, only Premium time purchased with real money from the Albion Online Web Shop or ingame store will count towards referral rewards (30 days of Premium or more). This means that Premium purchased with Gold or Silver will no longer earn rewards for the referrer. In making this change, our aim is to encourage organic referrals, while we also hope to see a downward effect on Gold prices as a result of this and will be observing developments there.
If you have any questions or feedback about these changes, you can visit this dedicated forum thread. For more on Referral Seasons, and to find your referral link, see this page (login required).
