Official Gamification & Competition Rules

Rewards & Competitions

Transparent, accurate rules for earning Brew Points, winning weekly/monthly tournaments, claiming physical & wallet prizes, and unlocking exclusive benefits.

Administered in South Africa by Technomancers (Pty) Ltd 2026
All competitions, tournaments, and promotional point giveaways hosted on CrossLobby are conducted in strict compliance with Section 36 of the South African Consumer Protection Act (Act No. 68 of 2008). Participation in community leaderboards is free of charge and does not require mandatory monetary purchase.

1. The Brew Points Economy

How you earn points through community contribution and passion

Daily Check-in & Streaks

Check into CrossLobby daily to claim base points. Maintaining consecutive check-in streaks unlocks escalating milestone multipliers at 3, 7, 14, and 30 consecutive days.

Brew Logs & Tasting Reviews

Document your coffee brews (grind size, extraction time, brew gear, and flavor notes) or write verified reviews for local roasteries to earn community contribution points.

Café Orders & Vendor Visits

Earn bonus loyalty points on completed coffee orders placed with partner cafés and roasteries, directly supporting independent local businesses.

Quests & Seasonal Challenges

Complete limited-time quests in the Quest Hub, participate in coffee tasting challenges, and achieve community milestones for lump-sum points drops.

Daily Points Earning Caps & Boosters

To maintain fair competition across all players, standard user-earned actions are capped at 1,000 points per 24-hour rolling window.

When an XP Booster is active on your profile, your daily limit expands to 2,000 points per 24-hour window.

*Note: Official platform rewards, quest completions, loot drops, battle pass milestones, and referral payouts bypass the daily cap and are credited in full.

3. Prizes, Real-Money Wallet & Settlement Rules

Audited ledgers, cash prizes, and transparency guarantees

Audited Settlement Ledger (LeaderboardSettlementHistories)

When a competition cycle ends, final ranks and score tallies are frozen and published to an auditable settlement history ledger. All distributed rewards, badges, and points are permanently linked to the winner's account.

Real-Money Wallets (UserWallets & CashTransactions)

For sponsored tournaments offering South African Rand (ZAR) cash prizes or merchant credit, funds are credited directly to the participant's verified in-app UserWallet. Every addition or withdrawal is recorded in an auditable transaction ledger. Cash withdrawals require standard South African identity verification (FICA compliance) to prevent financial fraud.

Fair Play, Anti-Cheat & Disqualification

  • Strictly one account per individual. Multi-accounting, click farms, and bots are prohibited.
  • Attempting to manipulate point transactions or coordinate false reviews results in immediate disqualification, forfeiture of prizes, and permanent account termination.
  • Staff Exclusion: Technomancers (Pty) Ltd staff, platform administrators, and designated internal QA tester accounts are automatically excluded from public leaderboard prize pools.
