Hi. I’ve created a sort of referral system on my website, where if you send someone to a specific link to sign up it gives you a point in a MYSQL table.

Then when you go to a specific page it will show how many users you have referred to the website. On this page I need to create a script that will determine how many users you have signed up and from that give you a prize of some sort.  
So if you have signed up 1 user you get something and 5 users and 20 and so on.

Im not sure how to go about this? I would really appreciate some help.
