I have created a new account using my referal link as follows https://bitshares.openledger.info/?r=mf-tzo/create-account#/create-account but the new account created is shown in the fee allocation as registar, lifetime referrer,registrar and affiliate referrer openledger-reg

So did I did anything wrong?
Is the referral not working yet?

https://bitshares.openledger.info/?r=mf-tzo/create-account#/create-account - this is not correct referral url, correct one would be https://bitshares.openledger.info/?r=mf-tzo#/create-account

There was an issue with passing cookies via cross origin domain requests.
It's fixed now and you should be able to refer people to bitshares.org (root or any path inside) and your referrer will count for both bitshares.org/wallet and bitshares.openledger.info wallets.
Great!  +5%

This should work for bitshares.org domain and pass your referral to bitshares.org/wallet.
One of the reasons it didn't work for @tonyk  might be a browser's cache - I've added a tracking code to bitshares.org not so long ago, so if page was cached it couldn't pass you referrals. The other possible reason could be related to issues passing cookies via CORS ajax requests in some browsers, will check this out..

better test this via incognito mode (ctlf+shift+n in chrome)

First 2.0 referral program is up and running.
In order to participate you need to refer users to bitshares.org, openledger.info or bithsares.openledger.info domains and pass your account name (account needs to be a lifetime or annual member) via r= parameter.
You will collect either 60% (for lifetime referrer account) or 30% (annual member) of all fees paid by each user that registers by your link.
Example of a valid link:
Code: [Select]
https://bitshares.org?r=youraccountname

Nicely done guys!

Going to https://bitshares.org?r=yourREALLIFETIMEaccountname

and clicking on "online wallet" is creating an account with :

Fee Allocation
Network   20%
Lifetime Referrer   (openledger-reg)   30%
Registrar   (openledger-reg)   50%
Affiliate Referrer   (openledger-reg)   0%

@fav  @valzav  amongst others.

PS
 IE
clicked enter code (or something like that before registering)

tonyk brings up the point that a link to the website using bitshares.org?r=affiliatecode the affiliate code appears not to pass into the wallet if a user selects Online Wallet (affiliate code not in url).
We will work out a referral program for bitshares.org that will see to it you get rewarded downstream by forwarding the r=? args to the partner sites that the user eventually selects.
Referrals to the website should carry the affiliate code to the wallet as some users will want some info before they jump right in. It would be nice to have the option to refer users to the website and not just directly to the wallet.

@valzav thanks for getting the referral system off the ground!

Why is the register still openledger-reg if I am the referrer?

Lack of arbitrage is the problem, isn't it. And this 'should' solves it.
