Below you’ll find a list of sites & forums that are completely dedicated to torrent ‘invite’ swapping, private sites that are open to new signups, and free account ‘giveaways’. It should be assumed that these sites require registration and some form of user participation. Having said that, many will grant VIP / Donor status for members who donate to the site.
We highly recommend that you’re properly prepared before asking for invites or "giveaways". In short, this would include being an active member in the forums, and having "proofs" done beforehand. Proofs consist of two things: A current speedtest of your Internet speed (3 is best to have on hand), plus a ratio proof screenshot (or more than one) of a current private tracker that you have an account to. Both of these criteria are used by a ‘donator’ to decide who is deserving of the invite.
UPDATED Aug/08: Many of these sites come and go. Sites that are permanently down are now listed at the bottom (for reference).

Torrent Invite (T.I.) 
Torrent Invite is a great community for all users of private trackers - not just for leechers looking for free giveaways. Here’s some of their features:
| Minimum Participation? | YES | To take advantage of key features, minimum post number is required. |
| Private Tracker Reviews? | YES | Currently there are 86 different site reviews. |
| ‘Open Signups’ Thread? | YES | A very popular thread dedicated to user-submitted trackers that are currently open. |
| Credit / Points System? | NO | T.I. uses a "Reputation Power" (’rep’ system) for its members. |
| Offers & Requests? | YES | Yes, but must be a member for a minimum of 30 days before making requests. |
| Invite Trading? | NO | Invite trading has been closed indefinitely as of August 11/08. |
| Invite Giveaways? | YES | Users must have 20 posts or more, and be a member of this site for 15 days or longer to access. |
| Locked Forums? | YES | ‘Elite’ members have access to the "T.I. Elite Group" forum, where torrent invites are handed out freely. |
OUR NOTES:
Due to T.I.’s popular status, there’s a colossal number of members who dedicate themselves to providing fresh invites on a large scale. Many of the giveaways are ‘multiple’ giveaways - meaning there’s a variety of trackers being offered in the same thread. Simply put - if you can’t find a good invite through T.I. then you won’t find it anywhere else.
T.I. doesn’t use a ‘points’ system - but ‘Rep Power’ is the key to becoming an Elite Member. Be sure to ‘rep’ anyone who gives you an invite. We recommend everyone to try to become "elite" - there’s a great forum that unlocks to provide even better invite giveaways to some really good trackers:
www.trackereactor.com
TrackeReactor
TrackeReactor does away with all that credits / points stuff commonly found on other sites. This is probably also why they remain one the most popular resources for tracker giveaways. Highly recommended!
UPDATE: - 27/07/08 TR has recently undergone some major changes to better their community - notably:
- — Direct signups to TrackeReactor are presently closed: - You’ll need to be invited to get in (through existing qualifying members), or apply through TR staff. Check out this page for additional info.
- — Tracker ‘trading’ is not allowed: - TR is a community-driven, non-trading site.
- — No more tracker “Levels”: They have removed the tracker levels system, as levels are only useful for collectors and traders. Members who just want what they need don’t have any need for levels.
| Minimum Participation? | YES | No minimum requirement, but some forum activity (posting) is required. |
| Private Tracker Reviews? | YES | Currently lists over 200 different site reviews. |
| ‘Open Signups’ Thread? | YES | Hard to find, but it’s in the ‘BitTorrent’ > ‘BitTorrent’ thread. |
| Credit / Points System? | NO | No, but uses ‘reps’ that are counted and can sometimes be taken into consideration for certain giveaways. |
| Offers & Requests? | YES | Offers are in the ‘Giveaway’ section, but there’s also a ‘Request’ thread. Open to all. |
| Invite Trading? | NO | Account trading is forbidden. TR is a community for sharing invitations. |
| Invite Giveaways? | YES | Available to all. Have ‘proofs’ ready and have a few posts in the forums. |
| Locked Forums? | YES | Just one - the VIP section. $15 gets you access to these forums, including their ‘VIP’ IRC channel. Read below. |
OUR NOTES:
TrackeReactor is a great place for invites, tracker reviews and the latest goods. See our exclusive article on TrackeReactor Invites.
VIP Access — If you’ve got the extra $15, we highly recommend that you join their VIP service. As if their giveaway system isn’t already the best in the business; with a VIP you’ll get a first crack at the offers and be able to join this elite team in the VIP-only IRC channel.
TrackeReactor has a great staff, even better giveaways and a great community. Put it all together and you’ve got a winning combination. Tops in our books.
Invite Nation v2
InviteNation 
Not too many torrenters have heard about InviteNation, although it’s been growing steadily in the first two quarters of 2008. It’s a smaller site, although it’s relatively easy to get in on the giveaways: members must become "User" class (10 forum posts) in order to participate in anything. Invite Nation has recently returned as version 2.0 - and looks better than ever. It all began back in March 2007 but they ran into some funding and database problems. The site & forum went through a complete overhaul recently in 2009 (and a new domain) and current members mostly consist of mods, admins and VIPs from the old site
| I-N - Online Since… | March 2007. Now back up in 2009. | |
| Minimum Participation? | YES | Minimum postcount required to view the giveaways and requests areas. |
| Private Tracker Reviews? | YES | Located in the "Sneak Peeks" subforum. Currently lists 98 reviews. |
| ‘Open Signups’ Thread? | YES | Located in National Past times > Tracker Talk thread. |
| Credit / Rep System? | YES | Unique credit system in addition to a rep system for invite giveaways. |
| Invite Giveaways? | YES | You need 10 posts to enter the giveaway section. |
| Invite Requests? | YES | You need 25 posts to enter the request section. |
| Invite Trading? | NO | Trading of accounts or tracker invites is forbidden. |
| Account GAs? | NO | Account giveaways & requests are not allowed. |
| VIP Section? | YES | Account GAs & requests are not allowed. |
OUR NOTES:
InviteNation looks like an empty forum to anyone who visits but hasn’t registered. Once logged in, all of the forums open up.
You can give and get "reps" for sneak peaks, giveaways, filling requests, starting threads, posting good open signups and helping other members. Some site features are unlocked at a minimum 25 reps. Members are promoted to "User" class once they hit 10 posts in the forums.
http://invites-system.org
Invites-System 
Invites-System is a brand-new site for BitTorrent invite trading, giveaways, reviews and everything else!
| Minimum Participation? | NO | No ‘minimum’ to access certain areas - open to all. |
| Private Tracker Reviews? | YES | Currently lists over 40 different site reviews. |
| ‘Open Signups’ Thread? | YES | Located as a sticky in the ‘Torrent Tracker’ thread. |
| Credit / Points System? | YES | There’s a credit system (similar to a ‘rep’ scenario). |
| Offers & Requests? | YES | To do a request you need 15 posts (and 2 points) with at least one giveaway. |
| Torrent Site Trading? | YES | There is a thread dedicated to tracker trading - 10 post minimum. Also has a ‘middleman’ feature. |
| VIP Section? | YES | Unsure yet how to gain access - ‘donation’ link is not activated. |
| Invite Giveaways? | YES | Read individual requirements in each giveaway thread for min. participation activity, if applicable. |
OUR NOTES:
Invites-System is a cool site with a great layout; very easy to navigate and aesthetically pleasing.
So far, this seems like a really active site with a ton of daily giveaways and posts - I’m gonna make it one of my regular hangouts. As an added bonus, they don’t overdo it on the rules, either.
http://www.torrent-invites.com
Torrent-Invites.com
Torrent-Invites looks really sharp, and backs it up with some great reviews and high-quality giveaways. You’ll notice some very familiar faces, indeed. It’s not an ‘elitist’ torrent forum, and users need only a minimum of 4 forum posts to get in on most of the action. Hell, you don’t even need to register to view the threads.
UPDATE - Aug/08: While most torrent forums are abandoning the "trading" aspect to private tracker invites, T-I holds ground and still offers a trading thread, which remains one of their most popular discussion topics. Further proof that invite trading is still alive and well.
Here’s some of their key features:
| Minimum Participation? | YES | To take advantage of key features, you’ll need at least a minimum of 4 forum posts. |
| Private Tracker Reviews? | YES | Reviews are done well, with current screenshots and arranged alphabetically. Currently lists 163 tracker reviews. |
| ‘Open Signups’ Thread? | YES | Yes, it’s located in the "General Discussion" thread. |
| Credit / Points System? | YES | Uses a "Reputation System" and user-ranks like most other Torrent Forums. |
| Offers & Requests? | YES | Yes, but to make a request you must be a "Junior Inviter" or higher. |
| Invite/Site Trading? | YES | For now. There’s a section devoted to tracker invite/account trading, although they may be removing it in the future. Also has a ‘middleman’ service. |
| Invite Giveaways? | YES | Users must have a minimum of 4 posts to access the giveaways. |
| Locked Forums? | NO | However, there is a "donators" section that can be viewed by all, but only donators can respond to the threads. |
Don’t leave this site without first checking out their Tracker Reviews - they’re a real breath of fresh air, and organized well. Another cool feature is the "Seedbox / Hosting" thread. You’ll be able to view reseller’s seedboxes, TorrentFlux and WebUI accounts.
http://torrentinvites.funkizone.com
Torrentinvites.Funkizone
Funkizone is a good invite/giveaway forum with a healthy amount of users (but not too many). It’s well organized and has a slew of tracker-related threads. There’s also a massive "Torrents" section with tons of interesting stuff.
| Minimum Participation? | YES | There is a varying minimum post count for most ‘invite’ features. |
| Private Tracker Reviews? | YES | Currently lists over 146 different site reviews (tracker levels included). |
| ‘Open Signups’ Thread? | YES | Also has a nice "Open Signups Releasing Date" thread. |
| Credit / Points System? | NO | No, but participation is required for most site features. |
| Offers & Requests? | YES | 20 post minimum to make a request (regardless if it gets filled or not). |
| Invite Trading? | NO | Trading here has now been disallowed. |
| Invite Giveaways? | YES | There’s a 15 post minimum to join in on the giveaways. We recommend that you gather up your ‘proofs’. |
| Locked Forums? | YES | There is a "VIP Lounge", as well as a "Free High Class Invites" thread. |
OUR NOTES:
Funkizone is a great all-around site for all-things torrent & tracker related!
When requesting a giveaway, quality posting is taken into consideration, especially when being offered by the admins. So make meaningful posts - perhaps add a review, help someone out in a thread, etc. Keep your speed and ratio proofs handy - they may be requested.
http://p2ptalk.org/forums/
p2ptalk.org/forums
Not specifically a tracker invite swapping forum; although this is definitely the most-used section of the site. There’s a very busy "Torrent Tracker Invites" section with lots of daily additions - be sure to get those proofs lined up. Some giveaways require that users make a minimum of 30 posts, so check each thread to see what’s being asked.
There’s also a neat addition called "My Trackers" which shows reviews of elite trackers and the number of members that hold accounts there.
http://getinvites.org
GetInvites.org
GetInvites.org is a great new service dedicated to sharing and receiving private tracker invites. See this article for more information.
www.tpgcommunity.com
ThePeerGroup Community
While not typically an ‘Invite’ forum, there’s a lot of BitTorrent stuff to be found at TPG; including new site recruitment, tracker community reps, tracker reviews, and up & coming torrent sites.
www.torrentforums.com
Torrent Forums
Torrent Forums is more of a ‘general’ BitTorrent Discussion board, but it has a decent Invitation Forum. 20 prior forum posts are required to participate in this section.
Invite-Zone
Invite-Zone
Invite-Zone is highly regarded as one of the best ‘private’ BitTorrent discussion/invite forums. Currently it’s ‘invite only’ to get in this great forum.
Other Notables
http://sharing-the.net
Sharing The Net
STN is a relatively new startup. Uses a "rep" system, although this statistic matters very little in these invitation threads. Be sure to amass some proofs, though. Each giveaway thread has its own specific (proof) requirement, and some giveaways have none whatsoever. There aren’t many users there, so you’ve got a good shot at acquiring some invites.
http://theps3nation.net/forum.htm
They’ve recently removed ‘BitTorrent’ from these forums, but users can apply to get into their new BT Invites Forum at:
http://theps3nation.net/how-to-join-our-exclusive-bt-invite-site-f59/
http://filesharingtalk.com
Much to our chagrin, we decided it would only be right to include this no0bs’ BitTorrent discussion board.
http://invites.top-forum.net
Not too much going on here at the moment - but then again, there’s no competition for the giveaways, either. Keep an eye on T-Invites in the future.
http://invitescentral.net
Invites Central is closed to new signups. (We can’t review what we can’t get into).
http://trackershare.ipbfree.com
TrackerShare is also closed to new signups.
http://torrentinvites.net
TorrentInvites.net is a small community with just one forum that contains all - Offers, invites, open signups, and trading.
http://torrentinvite.fr
TorrentInvite.fr is a French-only BitTorrent invite and discussion forum. The tracker reviews are well-done, though!
Torrent Invite Sites That Are Now Closed
There’s some serious competition when it comes to private tracker invites - sites will assuredly whither away and die if they can’t get members (to provide invites); contribute to forum threads and be active in the community. For these sites, as they say on private trackers, "It’s Bye-Bye Kansas".
http://TTIF.net - Closed June/08
The Tracker Invites Forums
TTIF works on a "TID" currency system. TIDs can be earned by posting in the threads, replying, inviting friends, and more. A TID, short for ‘Tracker Invites Dollar’, is the standard base of currency for their forum. Simply put - if you have enough TIDs, you’ll be able to post a request to spend them for an offered invite.
http://invites-paradise.org - Closed July/08
Invites-Paradise
Invites-Paradise is another little-known (or little used) forum devoted to torrent invites, giveaways and trading. IP members are divided into user ‘classes’ which are typically defined by the number of forum posts (participation).
