Refer a Friend, Share Your Story — Get Rewarded by CheckmateKorea

1. Refer a friend, earn ₩10,000

Know someone who's about to start their own housing search in Korea? Send them your way — literally.

• Log into My Page > Rewards and grab your personal referral code (it's already there, ready to share).
• Send it to a friend. When they use your code, they get a discount on their contract.
• Once their contract is completed, you get ₩10,000 — no extra steps, no waiting in line.
• Track everything from your side too: how many friends clicked your link, how many signed up, and how much you've earned so far, all visible on My Page.

It's the kind of favor you were probably going to do anyway — telling a friend about a service that worked for you. This just makes sure you get something back for it.

And there's no cap. Refer one friend or ten — every single friend who completes a contract earns you another ₩10,000. The more people you help find a home, the more you earn.

2. Share your story, earn ₩5,000

Already posted about your CheckmateKorea experience somewhere — Instagram, a blog, Xiaohongshu, TikTok, Facebook, wherever? Or planning to? Either way, you can turn that post into a reward too.

• Head to My Page > Rewards and click "Verify Your Post & Get Rewarded."
• Attach your post link and a screenshot — that's it, no long form to fill out.
• Once our team reviews and approves it (usually within 3–5 business days), you'll receive ₩5,000.
• Approval status and payout are visible on My Page, so you're never left wondering.

A review, a recommendation, a "here's what helped me" post to your followers — all of it counts, on any platform you already use.

Multiply the effect: drop your code into the post

Here's where the two programs work together.

When you write your post, add your personal referral code right into it. Your content isn't just reaching the friends you message directly anymore — it's out there for anyone who reads it. Every reader who uses your code and completes a contract earns you another ₩10,000, on top of the ₩5,000 for the post itself. One post, potentially many rewards.

Do I need to have used CheckmateKorea to participate?

No. If you have a CheckmateKorea account, your referral code is already active — whether or not you've completed a contract with us. And for the content reward, a recommendation post counts just as much as a personal review. Know the service, believe in it, and want to tell people about it? That's enough.

Can I do both?

Yes. Referring friends and sharing content are two completely separate rewards, so there's nothing stopping you from doing both.

What if I've already left Korea?

We've built this with that in mind.

If you're still in Korea when your reward is confirmed, it goes straight to your bank account — instantly withdrawable, no strings attached.

If you've already moved on, we'll send your reward through a secure international payout link so you can choose an option that works wherever you are.
