Elf codes

Every signed-in player gets a six-character elf code, like XN4YM8. It's printed on every score card you share and carried on your share links, so friends who join from them count as your recruits.

Where's mine?

Sign in, then open the Me tab. Your code is there, with a button to share an invite link. Codes skip look-alike characters (no I, L, O, 0 or 1), so they're easy to read out.

Where do I enter a friend's code?

Open a friend's share or invite link and the code comes with you. Or, when you first open the game, tap Got an elf code? and type it in. Only the first code counts, and it's claimed once you sign in.

How recruits count

A friend counts on the Elf Recruiters board once they've installed the game on a device never used with another Sunburnt Santa account, joined with your link or code, signed in and played at least three full games on at least two different days.

Play fair

• Only invite people who actually want to play. No spam, and follow each platform's rules about links.
• Inviting yourself, fake or duplicate accounts, emulators, bots or paid install services remove all your recruits.
• You are never paid for recruiting. Don't tell anyone they'll win anything by downloading.

The full rules are in sections 7 and 11 of the competition rules.
