Bring a friend to the castle

The castle does not pay out on signups

The castle’s rewards club

Keys to the Castle

You get a personal code. You hand it to a friend and they get 10% off one order — the same 10% the front door offers anyone, so your friendship is not being resold as a discount funnel. When their order is placed and paid, you have collected a key, and the chart below is in effect.

Cut my key

The Reward Chart

Like the one on the wall by the registers. Three rows, no tiers beyond them, and every number on it is one the castle actually pays.

1 Key Free One Item Your Choice

One item from The Vault Shelf, free.

The shelf holds stickers. It is a small shelf. It is a real shelf, and the code takes one item off it entirely.

See The Vault Shelf
3 Keys $15 Off

$15 off.

A personal code, spendable on one order. Cash-adjacent. The castle does not do cash.

Cut My Key
5 Keys $7999 Off

$79.99 off — a hoodie, on the house.

A personal code for $79.99 off one order, good for 90 days — the price of a hoodie, spent how you like — and the title “Keys to the Castle.” The title is a real title. Chet will acknowledge it.

Cut My Key

Every figure on this chart is one we actually pay!

  • A key is collected when a friend’s PAID order used your code. Not when anyone signs up for anything. Signups are free to fake; payment is not.
  • Your own orders never count. Handing your own code to yourself is not a friendship. The castle checks the order’s email against yours.
  • Each row on the chart pays exactly once. Reaching five keys pays row five; it does not re-pay rows one and three.
  • The friend’s deal is 10% off one order — one per person, never expires. It is the same offer the front door makes anyone who walks in.
  • Rewards arrive by email as personal codes beginning VAULT-. The free-item code works on The Vault Shelf, one item per code.
  • The castle reads the ledgers once a day, around 12:30 UTC. Orders are reviewed and rewards mailed on that daily pass. Not instantly. The castle is thorough, not fast.

There is no counter on this page, no leaderboard, and no number of members. The castle refuses to rank its guests, and it will not print a figure it cannot stand behind. You are visitor № EVERYONE.

Cut your key

An email the castle can reach. Your code is cut immediately and shown right here — no waiting, no approval, no interview.

Asking again returns the same key. The desk is idempotent, which is a word the castle enjoys saying to people who have lost a piece of paper.

What the key is worth to the person you give it to: 10% off one order, one per person, never expires.

What Your First Key Opens

The Vault Shelf, as it stands today. One key takes one of these off the shelf entirely.

Chet’s World

“I have been made the face of a referral programme. I want it on the record that I did not design it, was not consulted on it, and learned the word ‘advocate’ from a printout.”

“My understanding is this. You give a code to a friend. Your friend saves ten per cent. Later, if they actually buy the thing, a key appears next to your name in a ledger I am not allowed to look at. Nobody is paid for making a friend sign up, which I am told is the ethical part and which I am also told is why the numbers on that chart are so small.”

“The costume is a giraffe. Stores like this are supposed to have a tall, friendly animal standing near the door. The neck is structural and does not bend, so I cannot look down at a child, only slightly past them. I stand by the reward chart and I point at it. Management reports that the pointing is working.”

I point at the chart. That is the job. The chart is true.

Keys to the Castle is a referral program. Your friend gets 10% off one order; you collect a key each time a friend’s paid order carries your code. 1 key: a free item from The Vault Shelf. 3 keys: $15 off. 5 keys: $79.99 off — a hoodie, on the house — and the title. No points, no tiers beyond these, nothing expires into dust. Questions go to the complaints department, which is also the questions department.
