The points economy
PodSwap has no currency you can buy. Points come from work you do by hand, and each of the five exchanges keeps a separate balance.
- Free tier
- 7 actions = 1 point
- Point value
- 1 point = 5 engagements
- Campaign cap
- 10 points
- Separate wallets
- 5
Earning
On the free tier, 7 engagements earn 1 point. Pro reduces that to 6 and Max to 5.
Points are calculated per tier at the time the work was done, so upgrading never retroactively re-prices engagement you have already given.
Spending
One point buys 5 engagements on one of your posts. A single campaign is capped at 10 points.
Balances are siloed. Comment points cannot buy saves — each exchange is its own economy, because each one has its own supply.
Where points land
At a health score of 95 or above, points land immediately. Below that they sit pending for 24 hours while the receiving side can dispute.
Common questions
How much does PodSwap cost?
Nothing. Points are earned by performing engagements by hand, never bought. Pro and Max tiers exist in the product but there is no billing integration — they are waitlist-only.
How many engagements do I get per point?
One point buys 5 engagements on one of your posts, up to 10 points per campaign.
