Pump.fun App Referral Code 2026: BullishTBH for a 0.40% Fee
The code, where to enter it at sign-up or later, what it changes, and the fine print on the $50 deposit match.

What is the Pump.fun app referral code?
The Pump.fun referral code is BullishTBH. The Pump.fun app referral code is BullishTBH too: one code for the iPhone app, the Android app and pump.fun on the web, because a Pump.fun referral code is the referrer's username. Apply it and your platform fee drops from 0.45% to 0.40% of every trade in the app or on pump.fun, the lowest rate any Pump.fun referral code unlocks. Sign-up asks for a code, and an existing account without one can add it at any time: tap "Enter a referral code" on the Rewards tab of your profile, or "pay 10% less fees by using a referral code" in a trade's fee details. Added on a new account before its first card, Apple Pay or Google Pay purchase in the app, the code also qualifies for Pump.fun's deposit match of up to $50, paid as you trade on five separate days. Both entry points were checked in the app on October 20, 2026; the rates are from Pump.fun's fee schedule dated October 17, 2026.

How to use the Pump.fun referral code
- 1
Install the app. Install pump.fun from the App Store or Google Play — the iPhone listing is "pump.fun - speculate on trends" — or sign up on pump.fun in a browser.
- 2
Create the account. Sign up with an email address, Google, Apple or GitHub. Pump.fun creates a self-custodial wallet for the account.
- 3
Enter the code. When sign-up asks for a referral code, type
BullishTBH. - 4
Check the fee line. Before your first trade, open the fee details on the buy screen: the platform fee is its own line, and 0.40% means the code is on.
If you would rather not type it, Pump.fun publishes a page for every code. The one for this code is linked from the box at the top of this page; it shows BullishTBH with a copy button and the app store links. Pump.fun's terms tie a referral to the code being applied to your account, and the page itself says "Enter it when you sign up", so entering the code in the app is the step that counts.
Add the code to an existing Pump.fun account
An account that skipped the code at sign-up can add one later, including after depositing and trading. I found both entry points on this site's own account on October 20, 2026:
- 1
Open the code screen. On your profile, open the Rewards tab beside Packs and tap "Enter a referral code, pay 10% less". Or start a buy on any coin, open the fee details and tap "pay 10% less fees by using a referral code" at the bottom.
- 2
Enter the code. The screen reads "Got a referral code? Enter a friends username to pay the referred rate." Type
BullishTBH. - 3
Check the fee line. Open the fee details on your next buy: the platform fee line reads 0.40% once the code is on.
The 0.40% rate applies from the next trade. The deposit match is the one part a late code misses, because it counts only purchases made after the code is on.
What the code changes: the platform fee
From October 17, 2026, every trade placed through the Pump.fun app or pump.fun on the web carries a platform fee. Pump.fun publishes exactly two rates for it: 0.45% for a wallet with no referral code, and 0.40% for a wallet that has applied another user's code. It is taken in SOL or USDC from what you spend or receive, and it appears as its own line in the fee details before the trade goes through, next to Solana's network fee. Trades sent through Pump.fun's Terminal or a third-party interface sit outside the platform fee, so the code's saving applies to app and website trades.
| Trade size | Standard (0.45%) | With BullishTBH (0.40%) |
|---|---|---|
| $50 | $0.225 | $0.20 |
| $500 | $2.25 | $2.00 |
| $5,000 | $23 | $20 |
That is a 0.05-point cut, about 11% off the fee — Pump.fun's own announcement rounds it to "~10%". It's a small number per trade and it is honest to say so: someone trading $2,000 a month saves about $1 a month. It earns its keep on volume, and because Pump.fun has no minimum fee, it holds at every trade size, including the $20 trades where other apps' minimums take a bigger bite.
Three things it leaves alone. The pool fees on Pump.fun coins — 1.25% on the bonding curve, stepping down to 0.30% on PumpSwap as a coin's market cap grows — are paid on every app that trades them, Fomo and Axiom included, and stay the same with any code. The Solana network fee is the network's own charge, passed through as its own line: 0.159853 USDC on a $10 test buy from this site's account on October 20, 2026. And perpetual futures in the app carry Pump.fun's separate builder fee rather than the platform fee. How the 0.40% compares with other apps' fees is laid out in Pump.fun vs Fomo and the fee calculator.
The $50 deposit match, in full
Pump.fun's thread called it "$50 for both of you", and that is the right headline with a lot of conditions under it. The match runs under its own terms (last updated October 7, 2026), and the shape is this:
- What counts as the deposit. Your first purchase of crypto through the payment provider built into the app — a card or Apple Pay — made after the code is on. The match base is that purchase or $50, whichever is smaller: $20 in sets a $20 base, $500 in sets $50.
- How it pays. In five installments, one per day you trade, on your first five trading days (UTC calendar days) inside a ten-day window that starts when the purchase confirms: one-sixth of the base on each of the first four days and two-sixths on the fifth. On a $50 base that is about $8.33 four times and $16.67 on day five.
- What keeps it. The purchased crypto stays in the wallet it was delivered to until the last installment lands. Days left unused when the window closes lapse, and trading afterwards doesn't bring them back.
- Who qualifies. A person, 18 or over, new to Pump.fun since October 7, 2026, in a country where both Pump.fun and the payment provider operate. The UK is excluded, using a VPN to get around location rules disqualifies the account, and each person can receive the new-user match once.
- How it arrives. In SOL, USDC or another asset Pump.fun picks, after it reviews each installment. The program runs on a fixed budget, first come, first served, and Pump.fun can change or end it at any time.
The referrer's installments mirror yours, on the same days, from the same base. That is the part of the match that pays this site, and it is spelled out in the disclosure below. The useful takeaway for you: the match rewards someone who was going to fund the app with a card anyway and trade on several days. It's a poor reason to deposit money you weren't going to trade with.
When to enter it
The dependable moment is the sign-up screen. Enter BullishTBH there and both programs are covered: the 0.40% rate from your first trade, and the deposit match if your first purchase comes later.
Pump.fun is more flexible about this than most apps. Its terms let a code be applied "whether or not you have used the Pump Platform before", where Fomo and Axiom bind a code to account creation, and the app puts that into practice with the two entry points above. Two limits apply. The deposit match only counts a code that went on before the account's first card, Apple Pay or Google Pay purchase. And a wallet holds one code at a time, which Pump.fun says it may treat as permanent once made, so the first code you apply is very likely the one you keep.
Applying a code can also make you follow the referrer's profile in the app. That's Pump.fun's design rather than anything the code does to your wallet, and you can unfollow from the profile.
How to check it applied
Start a buy and open the fee details before you tap through. The platform fee is listed on its own line: 0.40% means your wallet has a code, and 0.45% means it has none yet. On this site's own account, which has no code applied, a 10 USDC buy on October 20, 2026 showed "Platform Fee 0.45%" alongside "Network Fee 0.159853 USDC". The network fee is Solana's and stays the same with a code.
For the deposit match, the installments appear in your wallet as each trading day is reviewed, not all at once, and Pump.fun doesn't commit to a timescale for that review. A missing installment on the same day is normal; one still missing after the ten-day window closes is worth a message to Pump.fun's in-app support.
Every Pump.fun code is a username
This is the detail that makes Pump.fun codes different from Axiom's or Fomo's. Pump.fun's terms define a referral code as a user's pump.fun username, so every account has one, and Pump.fun publishes a page for each at pump.fun/join/ followed by the name. A real code shows that user's profile picture and a link to their profile.
It also settles what a code can be worth. Pump.fun's fee page lists two rates and nothing else: 0.45% without a code and 0.40% with one. 0.40% is the floor a referral code reaches, so a code promoted with a bigger percentage is describing a rate that sits outside Pump.fun's own schedule. What a code decides is who receives the referral share, which is why every page promoting one owes you the kind of disclosure at the bottom of this one.
What a code can and can't touch
A referral code links your wallet to a referrer so that part of your platform fee is routed to them as each trade settles. Your wallet itself stays yours. Pump.fun's wallets are created by Privy, and Pump.fun's terms state that it has no control over a user's wallet or its private keys.
The real risk in this space sits next to the code rather than in it. Pump.fun says it asks for a private key in exactly one place: the "Link email & socials" dialog inside your signed-in account on pump.fun. A DM, email, X reply or website asking for your key or seed phrase "to activate a code" is a scam every time. Install the app from the App Store or Google Play listing, whoever's code you use.
Is the Pump.fun app worth signing up for?
For fees, yes: 0.40% with a code and no minimum is the lowest published platform fee of any app this site reviews. The Solana network fee comes on top, and it matters most on trades of a few dollars, where Fomo, which pays that fee itself, can come out cheaper. For pump.fun coins it is also the most direct route, since it comes from the team that runs the bonding curve, and its callout feed and Callout Rewards make it a social app in its own right rather than a launchpad with a trade button.
The trade-offs are real too. Its social layer only dates from August 2026, the interface asks more of a beginner than Fomo's does, and Pump.fun's legal history is heavier than its rivals'. The full picture — features, screenshots, the fee stack and the track record — is in the Pump.fun app review, and the head-to-head is in Pump.fun vs Fomo.
Referral disclosure
BullishTBH is the Pump.fun username of this site's author — the same BullishTBH in the byline at the top of the page — which makes it SellThePump's referral code. When an account applies it, Pump.fun routes a share of that account's platform fee to the site on every trade (during its limited-time 4x boost, Pump.fun says that share is all of it), and if the account completes the deposit match, Pump.fun pays the site matching installments. None of that comes out of your side: your rate is 0.40% and your match is the one described above.
SellThePump is independent and isn't affiliated with Pump.fun or Baton Corporation. The fees and terms on this page are taken from Pump.fun's own fee schedule and referral terms, linked below, and the funding model for the whole site is on the author page.
The caveat that outweighs any code: memecoins are volatile, most of them go to zero, and most people who trade them lose money. A lower fee makes each trade slightly cheaper. It doesn't make a bad trade good. Not financial advice — use money you can afford to lose.

Pump.fun referral code FAQ
What is the Pump.fun referral code?
The Pump.fun referral code is BullishTBH. It works in the iPhone and Android apps and on pump.fun on the web, because a Pump.fun referral code is the referrer's username. With it applied, every trade in the app or on pump.fun pays a 0.40% platform fee instead of the standard 0.45%. Sign-up asks for it, and an account without a code can add it later from the Rewards tab on its profile or from a trade's fee details. A new account that adds it before its first card, Apple Pay or Google Pay purchase in the app also qualifies for Pump.fun's deposit match where that runs.
Are a Pump.fun invite code, promo code and referral code the same thing?
Yes. Pump.fun runs one referral system, and the code it asks for is another user's username — BullishTBH is one. "Invite code", "promo code" and "referral code" all describe that same field, and it unlocks two things: the 0.40% platform fee and eligibility for the deposit match. 0.40% is the lowest platform fee a Pump.fun code reaches.
How much does the Pump.fun referral code save?
It takes the platform fee from 0.45% to 0.40%, which is $0.05 on every $100 traded: $0.50 on a $1,000 trade, $50 on $100,000 of volume. Pump.fun has no minimum fee, so the saving holds at every trade size. The 1.25% bonding-curve fee on new Pump.fun coins is a separate pool fee that every app pays, so the code leaves that one unchanged.
Can I add a Pump.fun referral code after signing up?
Yes. An account with no code can add one at any time, from two places in the app: the Rewards tab on your profile, which reads "Enter a referral code, pay 10% less", and the fee details on any buy screen, which end with "pay 10% less fees by using a referral code". The 0.40% rate applies from the trade after the code goes on. The deposit match is stricter: it counts only for an account new to Pump.fun whose code went on before its first card, Apple Pay or Google Pay purchase. A wallet holds one code at a time, and Pump.fun says it may treat that link as permanent, so pick the code you want first time.
I already deposited on Pump.fun. Can I still use a referral code?
Yes, for the fee. Pump.fun's terms let a code be applied whether or not you have used the platform before, and the app shows the code field to accounts that have already deposited and traded. A first purchase closes off only the deposit match, which counts purchases made after the code is on. Add BullishTBH from the Rewards tab or a trade's fee details and your next trade pays the 0.40% rate.
How does the Pump.fun $50 referral bonus work?
It is a deposit match. A new account that applies a code and then buys crypto inside the Pump.fun app with a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay sets a match base equal to that first purchase, capped at $50. The base is paid in five installments as the account trades on five separate UTC days within ten days of the purchase: one-sixth on each of the first four days, two-sixths on the fifth. A crypto transfer in from another wallet or exchange is outside the match.
Why didn't I get the Pump.fun deposit match?
The usual reasons, most common first: the money arrived as a crypto transfer rather than a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay purchase in the app; the code went on after the first purchase; the account traded on fewer than five days inside the ten-day window; the purchased crypto was withdrawn before the last installment; or the account is in an excluded country, which includes the UK. Pump.fun also reviews each installment before paying it and can take time to do so.
Is it safe to use a Pump.fun referral code?
Yes. A referral code links your wallet to a referrer so a share of your platform fee goes to them; your keys stay in your Privy wallet and the code adds no permissions. Pump.fun's own guidance is that it asks for a private key in exactly one place, inside your signed-in account, so a message asking for your key or seed phrase alongside a code is a scam.
Does the Pump.fun referral discount expire?
The 0.40% rate applies to every trade from a wallet with a code applied for as long as Pump.fun keeps the program running. Pump.fun's terms let it change the platform fee, the referral share or the deposit match at any time, so the rates here are as published on its fee page dated October 17, 2026.
Is the Pump.fun app available in the UK?
The UK is on Pump.fun's list of prohibited jurisdictions, so the app, the referral discount and the deposit match are all unavailable there. Perpetual futures in the app also exclude US and Ontario residents, and tokenized stocks exclude the US, UK, Switzerland and Canada.
