Playing Fortnite is much more fun with fancy cosmetic items. While you obtain most of these items from the Item Shop, you can get some of them for free as well. If you refer a friend to Fortnite, you’ll unlock several cosmetic items to expand your locker, and our guide will show you how to do it.

This process is quite simple and easy, and both you and your friend will receive exclusive cosmetics from it. However, it’s also important to note that referring a friend to Fortnite isn’t all you need to do. After your friend joins the videogame, you’ll have to complete a couple of quests together.

How to refer a friend to Fortnite

Epic Games rewards you for referring your friends to Fortnite every year. During certain periods, you can unlock free cosmetic items for doing this. These items include free Fortnite skins and a few other accessories.

To refer a friend in Fortnite, please follow these steps:

  • Open the Fortnite Refer A Friend website
  • Log in with your Epic Games account
  • Click on the orange Share Invite button
  • Share your unique link with the friend you want to refer

You may refer anyone who has played less than two hours of Battle Royale and Zero Build modes over the past 30 days. Due to this, you can refer both new and returning players to Fortnite.

Once you complete this procedure and add your friend to Fortnite, you will have to complete a few quests together. To unlock a free skin, you will both have to level up 60 times from the moment you start playing.

✓ Asmir’s Advice

Don’t miss free cosmetic items in Fortnite

Each Refer A Friend program lasts for a few months. Once it ends, you will no longer be able to earn its cosmetic items for free. Due to this, make sure to refer a friend as soon as the program comes out.

As of December 2023, you can unlock the Redcap skin for free. However, the skin will only be available until early January 2024, so make sure to refer your friend to Fortnite soon and work together on completing new quests.

How to refer a friend to Fortnite – FAQ

What is a Fortnite referee?

A referee is a Fortnite player who is invited by someone else (referrer). Both the referee and the referrer need to complete new quests to unlock free cosmetic items.

Can I refer multiple friends to Fortnite?

You can refer up to five eligible friends to Fortnite. However, you need to keep in mind that you won’t get any additional rewards by referring multiple players.
