If you are an athlete on ralli, you already know how powerful it is when your community rallies behind you. Some athletes take that a step further: they know other athletes who would thrive here too, and they want to be the person who brings them in. That is exactly what the ambassador programme is for, and yes, you can do both.
This post explains how being an athlete and an ambassador at the same time actually works: one login, two roles, two completely separate wallets, and a few simple rules that keep everything fair.
The short version
You apply to be an ambassador at rallihq.co/ambassadors, signed in with the same account you use as an athlete. When the ralli team approves your application, an ambassador dashboard is added to your account alongside your athlete pages. Nothing about your athlete profile, your backers or your wallet changes.
From then on, when an athlete joins ralli through your referral link, you earn referral credits on the eligible backing they receive. Those credits are yours to reinvest into athletes or cash out once you are verified.
One login, two roles
There is no second account to create and no second password to remember. You sign in once, and your menu shows both sides of your ralli life:
- Your athlete side. Your public profile, your milestones, your backers, your athlete wallet and your withdrawals. Exactly as it is today.
- Your ambassador side. Your referral link and sharing tools, your roster of referred athletes, your referral credit balance and your cash-out requests.
The two sides never mix. Money backed to you as an athlete lives in your athlete wallet. Referral credits you earn as an ambassador live in your ambassador balance. Each has its own history, its own totals and its own payout path.
A look inside your ambassador dashboard
Here is an illustrative dashboard for an approved ambassador with 20 referred athletes. You can see the backing your roster has received, the referral credits earned, your available balance and how credits have been used — all separate from your athlete wallet.
After approval, your own dashboard also includes your personal referral link and sharing tools, your full referred-athlete roster and cash-out requests. The example below shows the potential earnings behind these figures.
What you earn as an ambassador
Ambassadors earn $1 in referral credits for every $25 of eligible backing received by athletes they referred. That is 4%, and it comes out of ralli's platform fee, never out of the athlete's share. The athlete you refer keeps exactly the same percentage they would have kept if you had never existed.
To put that in real numbers: say you build a roster of 20 athletes and they receive an average of $3,000 of backing each over a year — $60,000 of backing in total. That is $2,400 in referral credits, paid to you from ralli's platform fee. And as each athlete's community grows, that number grows with it.
Those credits are yours to use how you like. Reinvest them into your athletes — or any athlete on ralli — and every allocation gets a 10% bonus, so $2,400 in credits becomes $2,640 of backing. Or cash them out once your account is verified: $100 minimum via PayPal or $200 via bank transfer, with payouts arriving within 2 to 4 business days of approval. Referral credits carry a 12-month expiry, so it pays to put them to work.
The rules that keep it fair
Three simple rules protect athletes and keep the programme honest:
- One referrer per athlete. Every athlete has exactly one referring partner, whether that is an ambassador, a club, a school or a brand. If an athlete already has a partner, they stay with that partner. First come, first served.
- No self-referral. You can never earn referral credits on backing that goes to your own athlete profile. Your athlete funding and your ambassador earnings are always separate.
- Approval is required. Every ambassador application is reviewed by the ralli team. Applying does not guarantee approval, and approval is what switches the ambassador side of your account on.
Who makes a good athlete-ambassador?
Honestly, the athletes who are already doing the job without the title. The senior rider mentoring the juniors coming up behind her. The retiring pro whose phone is full of young athletes' numbers. The captain who knows every talented kid in the region.
Take Sophie Lang, a veteran road rider on ralli. Sophie is in the back end of her own racing career and founded Horizon Women's Racing, a women's elite road team focused on developing talented riders, creating opportunities to compete at a higher level, and helping them take the next step in their careers. Her goal is a supportive team environment that creates a pathway for women to reach their full potential in the sport. That is the ambassador mindset exactly: she is already connecting athletes to opportunity. As an ambassador, that work earns her referral credits she can reinvest straight back into the riders she believes in.
If that sounds like you, you do not need a huge following. You need genuine relationships with athletes and a community that trusts you.
How to apply
- Sign in with your existing athlete account.
- Head to rallihq.co/ambassadors and complete the short application.
- The ralli team reviews it. If you are approved, you will get a welcome email and the ambassador dashboard appears in your menu.
- Share your referral link with the athletes you want to bring in. When they join through it and their communities start backing them, your credits begin to build.
If you are a coach, mentor or connector rather than an active athlete, the same application applies. And if you run a club or school with a whole roster of athletes, the organisation programme may be a better fit, with its own portal and referral credits.
Your athlete journey comes first
One last thing worth saying clearly: being an ambassador never competes with being an athlete on ralli. Your backers, your milestones and your funding stay exactly where they are. The ambassador role simply recognises something many athletes already do naturally, and rewards it.
