All my hard work has been paying off, and I’ve managed to recruit a good number of family members to sign up using my BizPlat links. As of today I’m at 8 refs for 2017, but there’s potential for a few more.

So I’m curious what I should do. I have the BizGold, so I can always refer from that card. But if I don’t have to give up the 25,000 refs that would obviously be better!

Anyone have any experience or data points to share?

Why not get one of the family members to generate a referral code of their own? You could switch to hyping that referral code instead. Then you know it won't go for naught.
