About the DigitalOcean referral

DigitalOcean is a cloud platform popular with developers and small teams - virtual servers (Droplets), managed databases, Kubernetes, object storage, and GPU instances, with simpler pricing than the big clouds. The referral gives a new account $5 in free credits to spend on any of it.

There is no DigitalOcean referral code or promo code to type in. The referral is attached automatically when you sign up through the referral link and add a valid payment method (credit card or PayPal). The payment method is for verification - you are not billed unless your usage exceeds the credit.

The offer is global: DigitalOcean sells in most countries, and the referral credit works the same wherever eligible new accounts are accepted.

FAQ

What is the DigitalOcean referral code?
There is no code to enter - DigitalOcean referrals work through a link. Sign up through the referral link and the $5 in free credits attach to your new account automatically.
Are the $5 in DigitalOcean credits really free?
Yes. You must add a valid payment method (credit card or PayPal) to verify the account, but you are only charged if your usage goes beyond the credit.
What can I spend the $5 in credits on?
Anything DigitalOcean bills for - Droplets (virtual servers), managed databases, Kubernetes, object storage, load balancers, and GPU instances. It is real account credit, not a product-specific coupon.
Does the DigitalOcean referral work outside the United States?
Yes. DigitalOcean is a global platform and the referral credit works the same in Canada, Europe, India, and anywhere else DigitalOcean accepts signups.
What happens when the credit runs out?
From then on you pay normally for whatever you keep running. Nothing renews automatically beyond your actual usage, so you can destroy your resources before the credit is used up and pay nothing.
Is the DigitalOcean referral still working?
This offer was last verified on Jul 16, 2026. Referral programs can change, so confirm the current terms on DigitalOcean's site or app before signing up.
