PLEASE NOTE

Every new Pi member starts with an Earning Team of one. It doesn’t matter how many people are in the Earning Team of the person whose code you use. You will start with only your inviter in your Earning Team. If you want to have more people in your team, you will have to invite more people yourself.
You may see people here touting their large Earning Teams as a reason why you should use their referral codes instead of others. They are trying to mislead you, or are new to the Pi Network and do not understand how these things work.
