Before displaying a page it searches the content and injects a referrer tag to the end of URLs that match certain things. This is done instantly.
E.g. If there's a Binance URL on the page it'll add something like
?ref=bravebrowserBinance will pick up that tag and give them money for any sign ups. Brave do this for any crypto services they have affiliate accounts with.
