  6. How do I refer someone?Share your personal referral link with friends, family, or others who may be interested in an AARP membership. From your dashboard you can send your link by email or social media. Feel free to let them know why you enjoy your AARP Membership.

    8. Earning Referral Payouts
  8. How much can I earn?You can earn $15 when someone joins AARP using your referral link, and $5 when an existing AARP member renews their membership through your referral link, as long as program requirements are met. See Terms and Conditions for full details.
  9. Is there a limit to how many friends I can refer?No. There is no limit to the number of people you can refer. However, there may be a limit on the total number of referral payouts you can earn within a calendar year. See the Terms and Conditions or your dashboard.
  10. When do I get my payout?Once a referral remains an active member for 60 days, the payout process begins. You must also be an eligible member at that time.
  11. How do I receive my payout?When you have an eligible payout available, you'll receive an email with instructions for choosing from available digital payout options, which currently includes PayPal or Venmo.
  12. How do I track my referrals and payouts?Log in to your Refer A Friend dashboard to view your referral activity, including pending referrals, approved referrals, and available payouts.
  13. What does "pending" mean on my dashboard?A pending referral means your friend has joined or renewed using your link, but the 60-day qualification period hasn't been completed yet. Once AARP confirms your friend’s membership meets the requirements, the referral moves to "approved" and your payout becomes available.
  14. Will I receive updates about my referral activity?Yes. You'll receive email notifications at key milestones—when you sign up, when a referral is pending, and when a payout is ready to claim.
  15. What happens if my friend doesn't end up joining?No payout is earned unless your friend completes a qualifying action (joining or renewing) through your referral link and the membership remains active for the 60-day qualification period.
  16. Can I refer someone who is already an AARP member?Yes. If an existing member renews using your referral link, you earn the current renewal referral payout amount.
