Star Citizen · New account bonus
Starting Star Citizen?
Take 50,000 aUEC with you.
Every brand-new Roberts Space Industries account can enter a referral code at sign-up, and that code adds 50,000 aUEC to your starting balance. It costs you nothing, and the amount is the same no matter whose code you use.
You land the same 50,000 aUEC either way, but the referrer earns recruitment credit for it — so that should go to whoever actually talked you into the game. Ours is only here for people who came in on their own and would otherwise leave the field blank.
If nobody sent you one
Here is the Motherlode code. Copy it, or use the link and it fills itself in.

How it works
Four steps, and the only one that matters is not leaving the referral field empty.
- 01Open the enlist page
The link below drops you on the Roberts Space Industries sign-up page with the code already filled in. Nothing to type, nothing to remember.
- 02Check the referral field
Before you submit, make sure the referral box still reads STAR-ZCTH-GG9Q — or a friend's code if you would rather use theirs.
- 03Finish creating the account
Handle, email, password. The account itself is free to make; you only pay if and when you decide to buy a game package.
- 04Collect the 50,000 aUEC
The bonus lands in your account balance and is yours to spend in the persistent universe once you are in.
Questions
Entering any valid referral code when you create a brand-new Roberts Space Industries account adds 50,000 aUEC to your starting balance. aUEC is the in-game currency used in the persistent universe — it is not real money and it does not carry over to anything you buy with cash.
A friend's, every time, if you have one. You get exactly the same 50,000 aUEC either way, and the person who referred you earns recruitment credit for it. Use ours only if nobody you know already plays.
No. Referral codes only apply at account creation, so an existing account cannot have one added afterwards. If you are already flying, this page is not for you.
No. Making the account is free and the referral code does not change any price. Whether you buy a game package later is a separate decision entirely.
Cloud Imperium gives the referrer recruitment points once the person they referred buys a game package. They go toward cosmetic in-game rewards and raffle entries. That is the whole arrangement — no money changes hands, and Motherlode stays free either way.
No. Motherlode is an unofficial community project. It is not made, endorsed, or reviewed by Cloud Imperium Games or Roberts Space Industries, and the referral programme is theirs, not ours.
Once you're in
Mining is one of the better ways to make those first credits go somewhere. Motherlode is free and needs no account to poke around.
Motherlode is an unofficial community tool and is not affiliated with Cloud Imperium Games or Roberts Space Industries. The referral programme, the 50,000 aUEC bonus, and its terms are theirs and can change at any time. Back to Motherlode
