# linkToReferrer(referrer)

Link a user to a given referrer - this creates a relationship between the two on ChainVine, allowing us to attribute rewards to the referrer based on the user's activity

```typescript
const 
campaign = { id:
'your-campaign-id'
,}

const 
referrer = getReferrer();
//Or manually fetch from URL if not using cookies

if
 (referrer) {
  
await 
userClient
    .referral({ campaign })
    .linkToReferrer(referrer);
}
```
