How does the meal bonus work?

For every subscriber you refer who continues past month one, we fund an extra 10 meals via WFP — in your name and the subscriber's name jointly, itemized on the public receipt for that month. This is separate from the standard $8 → 10 meals math; it's a program bonus on top.

What are the anti-abuse rules?

Confirmed as a real referral: the subscriber uses LADLE for at least 15 days and their card doesn't chargeback. Fake accounts (same card, correlated IPs, template-generated emails) are voided with no payout and the referrer loses program access. Same-household referrals are fine as long as they're genuinely different users; we don't require legal documentation.

Are there content rules for creators?

One rule: don't overhype. If you tell your audience LADLE will replace their subscription to another tool without qualification, we ask you to soften. If you compare it against a competitor, use the real facts (our /compare pages are a starting point). Fabricated screenshots, false performance claims, or accusations against competitors we can't substantiate will get the account paused.
