Founders & Refer-a-Friend

Two programs tied to Safira: the Founders Pack: reserved for the first 100 players, with status, a kit, and an exclusive companion, and Refer-a-Friend, which pays Safira when a friend you referred makes their first purchase.

Founders Pack

The first 100 players. The value is in exclusivity + status + companion, not raw power. Each founder gets an exclusive sequential number and the whole kit at once.

Rule Value
Packs for sale 100, forever
Premium included 30 days (timed, not lifetime)
Price dynamic in Safira
How many you can buy as many as you want
How many you can use 1 per account

Buying is not the same as using

The VIP Shop sells an item, the Founders Pack, not the status itself. It takes two steps:

  1. Buying puts the pack in your bag. There is no per-account limit: take three if you want.
  2. Using the pack is what makes the account a Founder, with a number, the badge and a name in the Hall.

Each account can only become a Founder once. A second pack does nothing for you, and that is the point: the Founders Pack can be traded on the Marketplace. A spare pack can be sold, and it is the only way anyone becomes a Founder after the shop sells out.

One detail that saves you from a loss: the pack cannot be sold to the NPC for gold. If you want to pass one on, sell it on the Marketplace, where it is worth something.

Dynamic price

The price rises with every pack sold, scarcity makes the slot more expensive: it starts at 100 Safira and climbs 2 Safira per pack that leaves the shop, never going above the 300 Safira ceiling.

  • The 1st pack costs 100 Safira.
  • The 100th costs ~298 Safira (always below the 300 ceiling).
  • Marketplace prices are between players: whoever sells a pack asks whatever they want.

The founder kit

Using the pack delivers, all at once:

Item Qty
Gold 50,000
Safira 25
Founder Case 1
Master Ball 1
Ultra Ball 50
Great Ball 100
Name Tag (VIP) 2
Essence of Life (breeding) 3
Exp Candy L 20
Rare Candy 10

The companion (Founder Case roulette)

The companion does not come ready-made: the kit includes the Founder Case, opened separately for a "reveal moment". When you open it, a species is rolled and the companion is born on the spot.

  • Pool of 16 species: the 15 Gen 1 to 5 starters plus Pikachu. They are: Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip, Turtwig, Chimchar, Piplup, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott and Pikachu.
  • The companion is born level 1, like any caught pokémon, with an IV floor of 25/31 ("well-raised, special but not broken"), soulbound (never tradeable), and wearing the golden founder tint (cosmetic, not shiny).
  • The founder seal multiplies base stats by ×1.50, one step above shiny (×1.45) and two above Genesis (×1.42). It multiplies the rarity the companion rolls in the Case, so an Astral companion reaches ×1.92. The rarity is a roll: it can come out Common, it can come out high.

Permanent founder seal

Being a founder is a permanent seal on the account:

  • +1 permanent incubator (never lapses, unlike Premium's temporary +1).
  • Golden name + 👑 Founder #NNN badge on social surfaces.
  • Appears in the Hall of Founders, a public showcase by number (name, level, outfit, and team).

Refer-a-Friend

A member-get-member program. The panel lives in the VIP Shop, and the reward shown on screen is exactly what you receive.

The single paying milestone

The reward happens at one moment: the referred friend's first real-money Safira purchase, proven by the payment.

The reward

Field Value
Reward 10% of the base Safira of the friend's package
Min / Max 10 / 200 Safira (the reward is clamped to this range)
Rewarded friends (cap) 50 distinct
Invite code 8 characters, unambiguous alphabet (no I/L/O/0/1)
Link {origin}/play?ref={code}
  • The reward is on the package's base Safira, the promo bonus is excluded, so a +50% promo doesn't inflate what you receive.
  • Examples: if the friend buys the R$ 10.00 package (base 20), 10% would be less than the floor, so you get the floor of 10 Safira. If they buy the R$ 280.00 one (base 600), 10% is 60, within range, so you get 60 Safira. Very large packages are capped at the 200 ceiling.

Invite with an image

An 8-letter code says nothing about the game. So you can turn one of your achievements into a ready-to-post image, and that image already carries your invite inside it.

Where the cards come from:

Card Where the button lives
One of your pokémon, with its stats at the top of the sheet, in Details (any pokémon, shiny or not)
My team at the top of the Team panel, and in the Invite a Friend panel too
Legendary defeated in the boss room, after a win
Ranking position in the Rankings panel
Hunted while away on the return screen, when you come back

The pokémon card carries HP, Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def and Speed, exactly as the sheet shows them, with each stat's IV under the number and the IV total as a percentage. The team card carries the same six numbers for each of the three, with level, rarity and the IV percentage. The shiny card shows the full sheet too. And every image comes out with the game's address in the footer, so whoever gets the screenshot knows where to play.

How it works: the button makes the image and a short link. Whoever gets the link sees the big card and a button to enter the game, and that entry counts as your referral, just like the normal link. You can send it straight from your phone (the image goes attached) or copy the link and paste it into Discord, where the card shows up on its own in the preview.

The card shows what you achieved: pokémon, level, position, hunt time. It never shows your money — no gold, no Safira. Trainer name and team do appear, so treat it as a public post, because that is what it is.

In the Invite a Friend panel you can turn on auto-posting your shinies: every shiny you catch shows up on its own in the Discord achievements channel, with the card and link. It starts off, and only turns on if you want it (it's your name in a public channel).

Partner Program (content creators)

Content creators (YouTube, Twitch, TikTok and the like) can become official partners of the game. A partner promotes with the same invite code as everyone else, but with better rules on both sides:

Who What they get
The partner creator 20% in cash (PIX) of everything each referred player spends in their first 30 days
Whoever joins through a partner link +20% Safira on their first purchase (over the package's base Safira)
  • The creator's cut grows with what they bring in, and a level once reached never drops:
Level Commission To reach it
Bronze 20% starting level
Silver 30% R$ 3,000 spent by referrals
Gold 40% R$ 10,000 spent by referrals
  • It pays to look for the link of a creator you follow before creating your account: it is free Safira on your first purchase.
  • Once you click the link, the invite is kept on your device for 30 days: create the account right away or come back later, in the same browser, and the creator still gets the credit. If you switch devices or clear your browser data, just open the link again (or type the code on the account creation screen).
  • To apply as a creator: pkhunt.online/parceiros. Submissions are reviewed by the team, and once approved you track everything in a dedicated dashboard (clicks, referrals and commissions).
  • Have a phone/WhatsApp number ready: it is required on the application. Payouts are PIX sent by hand, and if the key bounces or the account holder does not match, that is how the team reaches you.
  • When the referrer is an approved partner, the regular 10% Safira reward does not stack: it is replaced by the partner commission (and the bonus goes to you, the referred player).

Program fairness

To keep referrals honest, some situations make the reward held (instead of credited), the link stays recorded, only the payment is withheld:

  • Self-referral is blocked.
  • The link is written once: a second attempt never re-parents the referrer.
  • Referrals beyond the 50-friend cap are held. The cap only covers the Safira the referrer receives: the bonus for someone who joins through a partner link is never held by it, no matter how big the creator is.
  • The program has a global kill-switch: if turned off, payment pauses instantly (the link is still recorded).
