Common questions about Star Citizen and referral codes
A Star Citizen referral code is a special code you enter when creating your account that gives you 50,000 free UEC (United Earth Credits) to spend in-game on weapons, armor, and supplies. Use code STAR-DVTZ-99Z4 when signing up to claim your bonus.
Enter the referral code during account creation on the Roberts Space Industries website. Look for the referral code field at the bottom of the signup form. You can also add a code within 24 hours of creating your account if you forgot during signup.
Star Citizen starter packages begin at $45 USD, which includes the game and a starter ship (Mustang Alpha). The recommended Avenger Titan package costs $75 USD and offers much more versatility. There are no monthly subscription fees.
The Avenger Titan is widely considered the best starter ship for its versatility. It has cargo space for delivery missions, decent weapons for combat, and a bed that lets you log out in space and return to the same location. It's available in the $75 Duelist Starter Pack.
You have a 24-hour grace period after creating your account to add a referral code. After that window closes, referral codes cannot be added. It's best to enter the code during initial signup.
Star Citizen requires a one-time purchase of a game package (starting at $45). However, there are regular Free Fly events throughout the year where anyone can try the game for free. Create an account with a referral code to be ready for the next Free Fly!
No. While you can purchase ships with real money, all ships can also be earned through normal gameplay using in-game credits (aUEC). Many players start with basic ships and work their way up. Your piloting skill matters far more than your ship.
In 2025, new players who use a referral code receive 50,000 UEC (United Earth Credits) as a signup bonus. During special events like IAE or Invictus, additional rewards like exclusive ship skins or vehicles may also be available to both the new player and the referrer.
