Credits & Rewards
Credits are the gameplay currency of Favorites. You stake them on entries, win more of them, and earn them through the reward features below. This page explains the whole economy — and exactly what credits are not.
What credits are — and are not
Credits are
- The stake and payout unit for every entry
- Earned through gameplay and reward features
- A running score of how your picks perform
- Free — every account starts with 10,000
Credits are not
- Money, or convertible into money
- Withdrawable or transferable
- Redeemable for prizes or anything of value
- Buyable — there is nothing to purchase
Favorites uses virtual credits only. Credits have no cash value, cannot be withdrawn, cannot be redeemed for prizes, and are used only for gameplay inside the app.
Ways to earn credits
Daily Bonus
+500 credits
Once every rolling 24 hours you can claim a +500 credit daily bonus from the Credits tab. The countdown to your next bonus is shown in the app, and eligibility is always decided by the server — never by your device clock.
Watch & Earn
+250 credits per ad
When rewarded ads are available, you can watch a short ad to earn +250 credits, up to 5 times per day (the count resets at midnight UTC). If no ad is available, or you have reached the daily limit, the option simply pauses — nothing is lost.
Rescue Refill
Back to 10,000
If your balance drops below 1,000 credits, a rescue refill can top you back up to 10,000, once every 24 hours. It exists so a cold streak never ends your ability to play.
Why limits exist
Every reward feature has a limit: the daily bonus is once per 24 hours, Watch & Earn is capped per day, and the rescue refill has a cooldown. These limits keep the economy fair — everyone plays with the same rules, and no one can inflate a balance through repetition.
All reward eligibility is enforced on the server. The app shows you the state of each reward, but the decision to grant credits always happens server-side, and every grant is recorded in your credit history so you can see exactly where your balance came from.
Your credit history
The Credits tab shows your recent credit activity: stakes placed, entries won, refunds from pushes or voids, and every reward you have claimed. It is a complete, transparent record of your balance — not a statement of anything with cash value.
