Vanilla Points are earned by showing up: publishing a flash deal, adding a showcase offer, posting to the community stream and collecting reviews.
The board resets every week. The three leading businesses get extra exposure across the community — exposure only, never a change to their plan or permissions.
How points are earned
A 24-hour flash deal earns 10 points, a showcase offer 5, a community post 2 (up to three a day), a received reaction 1 and a new review 5.
What the leaders win
The top three businesses of the week are highlighted across the community with a leader ribbon. The prize is exposure — no credits and no plan upgrade.
Questions about the leaderboard
Do points cost anything?
No. Points are earned by activity and are separate from credits, which are the currency you spend on publishing and AI.
Can points be bought?
No. Points come only from real activity in the community, so the board stays honest.
