Rewarding System
Points and Rewards System
A well-designed points and rewards system is crucial for maintaining user engagement and fostering a sense of accomplishment. This system encourages participation, rewards dedication, and ensures a dynamic and enjoyable experience for users.
Points System
How Points Work
- Reward for Completion: each successfully completed quest grants users a certain number of points.
- Dynamic Allocation: the number of points awarded can vary depending on the quest type, difficulty, or platform (e.g., liking a video may yield fewer points than completing a multi-step challenge).
- Tiered Rewards: studios can implement a tiered system where more challenging quests offer higher point values.
Benefits of Points
- Encourage Engagement: points serve as a tangible incentive, motivating users to participate in more quests and explore the platform.
- Foster Competition: points can be used to create leaderboards, driving healthy competition among users.
- Create a Gamified Experience: points system adds a layer of gamification, making the questing process more interactive and rewarding.
Customization
- Studios can configure the points system to align with their audience and goals, such as by assigning higher points for time-sensitive or high-priority quests.
Rewards System
Types of Rewards
To attract and retain users, studios can define exciting prizes that cater to a wide range of interests. Examples include:
- In-game Loot: exclusive items, skins, or power-ups for games.
- Event Tickets: passes to virtual or in-person events.
- Gift Cards: vouchers for popular platforms, retailers, or services.
- Crypto Coins: digital currencies for users familiar with blockchain systems.
- Custom Rewards: studio-specific rewards like merchandise or early access to new features.
Reward Management
Managing rewards (same as quests management) is simple and efficient through the Studio Dashboard:
- Add, Edit, or Delete Rewards: keep your reward catalog updated to reflect user preferences and trends.
- Track Redeemers: view list of redeemers with their details, such as:

- Redemption Requests: approve or deny prize redemption requests based on user eligibility and available stock.
