Hello @Stephany1223, 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear there's been some confusion around the Refer a Friend promotion. After a bit of digging, I found it may take up to two weeks for the promotion to be rewarded. My apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. In the mean-time, here are some other Deals & Cash Back promotions you may be interested in. 

Thank you for joining PayPal and have a wonderful day!
