Partner Program
Beyond referrals, Xi runs a Partner Program for exceptionally committed evangelists. Essentially, an ambassador or affiliate program for those who can drive significant volume and awareness.
What is a Xi Partner?
A Xi Partner is a top-tier advocate, likely an influencer, community leader, or institution, who formally collaborates with Xi to promote the platform. They are “hand-picked” – it’s a selective program, not automatically attained by hitting numbers alone. Xi staff vets applicants for quality, reputation, and fit.
Partner Privileges
Unlimited Referrals
Partners aren’t constrained by the standard invite limits.
Xi Partners are not constrained by the normal invite limits – they have unlimited affiliate capacity.
This is huge because it means a Partner can onboard large communities or run campaigns without worrying about invite quotas.
Influence and Early Access
Partners get direct communication with the Xi team, early info on new features, and possibly a say in product direction (they represent user voices). They might beta test new tools, and their feedback is valued.
Xi Points Airdrops Partners receive Xi Points airdrops based on their activity and performance within the Partner Program. These rewards are intended to reflect the Partner’s contribution to platform engagement and ecosystem growth.
Co-branding and Marketing Support
Xi will co-host campaigns with Partners – e.g., run trading competitions for their community with prize support, provide merchandise or swag for giveaways. This helps Partners grow their own brand while promoting Xi.
Not about follower count alone
Xi explicitly notes a Partner need not be a huge Key Opinion Leader (KOL) in numbers, but rather a true ambassador who is passionate and effective. Quality of promotion matters, not just quantity. So, a smaller influencer with an engaged niche audience could be a Partner if they truly embrace Xi and bring on quality users.
Partner Requirements
The baseline expectations for a Partner include:
Selective Admission
Partners are hand-picked by Xi.
It’s not something you automatically become by meeting criteria (though criteria exist, Xi staff likely vets each applicant for quality). They look for people who have demonstrated exceptional commitment and capability in promoting Xi. Likely candidates: influential trading educators, community leaders, YouTubers, fund managers with networks, etc.
Active Promotion
They must actively promote Xi on social media and other channels and visibly align with the brand. This could mean content creation, hosting events, and adding Xi to their profiles.
Volume Generation
They need to bring in at least $1,000,000 in monthly trading volume through their referrals. This ensures they are not just talking, but actually driving substantial usage. $1M monthly is non-trivial and indicates they have a serious audience or network.
Partners don't have to be necessary KOLs.
The snippet emphasizes that a Partner “is not necessarily a KOL” but rather a true ambassador and loudspeaker for Xi who has proven themselves.
So, even someone with a moderate following but extreme dedication could be a Partner. It’s about the quality of promotion, not just follower count.
