Today, Checkpoints updated their referral system making promo/bonus codes less valuable. Now, instead of receiving 300 points (or even the 100 points it was lowered to a few weeks back) new members will only receive 50 points! If you want to get the 50 points now before the bonus is reduced to zero sign up now.
Perhaps this means that they have a lot of members already and are now focusing their money on growing the program instead of growing membership. This could actually be a good think for current Checkpointers since it means we'll hopefully see new earning opportunities within the app.
They've also revamped the reward system for referring a friend. Previously, users would receive 150 points per friend referred, now current members get 100% match of the points their friends earn for 2 weeks. Unless your friend is reallllly into scanning and checking in this likely means less points for you.
Update (8/6/13): Refers now get 100pts per member they refer and 100% match on points earned by that member for the first two weeks (max 7500pts).
