DefenseCon 2956 Referral Bonus - Free Drake Dragonfly
Refer a friend during DefenseCon 2956 and earn a Drake Dragonfly with Coalfire paint, while your recruit receives a DefenseCon Gear Pack.
DefenseCon 2956 is bringing a little Drake-flavored incentive to the referral circuit. If you bring a new player into Star Citizen during the promotion, you can earn a Drake Dragonfly with Coalfire paint, while your recruit gets a DefenseCon Gear Pack to help them make a rather fireproof first impression in the 'verse.
The Dragonfly is pitched here as a handy companion for terrestrial excursions, base scouting, and touchdown adventures, with the added benefit of fitting inside a variety of ships. Very Drake, then: practical, scrappy, and probably parked somewhere it technically should not be.
What is the referral bonus?
The referral bonus gives you free gear for bringing new players into Star Citizen. For this DefenseCon 2956 promotion, you receive a Drake Dragonfly with Coalfire paint when you refer a friend.
The player you refer receives a DefenseCon Gear Pack, including matching hat, T-shirt, and cargo pants.
The bonus is granted when a new player uses your referral code and pledges for a starter pack or ship, with a minimum value of $40, on the Pledge Store.
The standard referral rewards also apply, including 50,000 aUEC and a point in the regular Referral Program.
This bonus promotion runs until May 27, 2026, 20:00 UTC.
How do I refer a friend?
Your friends should enter your personal referral code when creating their new RSI accounts. Once an account has been created, a new player has 24-hours to add a referral code to their account and claim the rewards if they did not add it during account creation.
Where do I find my personal referral code?
You can find your personal referral code on the Referral Program Page. Your Referral Code is unique and can be shared wherever you like, including on social media, by email, or on your website.
What’s in it for me?
Recruiting one friend during the promotion earns you a Drake Dragonfly, described as a rugged snub for adventurers looking to live on the edge. Its dual-mode conversion lets it operate on the ground or in space, and its rear-facing second seat allows you to bring a passenger along for the ride.
This reward also includes the Coalfire paint.
What's in it for them?
The player you refer during the promotion receives a DefenseCon Gear Pack, including matching hat, T-shirt, and cargo pants. It is built to let them represent DefenseCon right out of the gate, with the brand quite literally on their back.
Can I earn more than one Drake Dragonfly?
No. Only one Drake Dragonfly with Coalfire paint can be earned per player.
What is the regular Referral Program?
The regular Referral Program lets you contribute to the growth of the Star Citizen community while unlocking in-game rewards, ranging from exclusive hangar items to ships. The Referral Program Page details the rewards currently available.
When do I receive my referral bonus?
The veteran player receives their bonus immediately when the new player they are referring pledges for a starter pack or ship, with a minimum value of $40, on the Pledge Store.
The new player’s bonus will be granted once the promotion ends on May 27. Bonuses may be distributed in waves, so if it does not appear right away, it should populate soon.
Are there any limitations to the referral bonus?
Yes. The Drake Dragonfly with Coalfire paint granted as a referral bonus includes LTI, or Lifetime Insurance, and is non-meltable and non-giftable.
Do the standard Referral Program and the limited DefenseCon 2956 Referral Bonus work together?
Yes. All referrals gained during the bonus period count toward your total in the standard Referral Program.
Where can I find more information on the Referral Program?
You can check the regular Referral Program or read the Referral Program FAQ for more information.
