How To Level Up

Every Promotion Has A Receipt.

No vibes. No favouritism. Every tier-up is a deterministic threshold - verified tasks, streak length, rejection rate, KYC depth - that the nightly recalc either ticks or doesn’t.

The Multiplier, Explained

Same Campaign. Different Tier. Different Pay.

The advertiser publishes one base rate. Earnvo pays each earner that base rate multiplied by their tier coefficient. Higher tier earners get the same task, same effort, and a fatter payout. The multiplier is the single biggest reason consistent earners out-earn casual ones.

Worked Example

Two earners (one Trusted, one Gold) both claim the same R60 campaign. They both post the creative, both get verified, both submit at the exact same minute. The Trusted earner banks R69. The Gold earner banks R78 - that’s R9.00 extra for identical effort. Stack 30 of these per month and Gold takes home R270 more than Trusted.

The Journey

From Sign-Up To Royal " A Realistic Timeline.

Most disciplined earners pass through these milestones at roughly this cadence. Some sprint to Trusted in two weeks; some take six months to Gold. The ladder waits " there is no clock and no deadline.

  1. 1
    Day 0

    New

    You sign up. Phone OTP, POPI consent, and a display name are the entire onboarding. You're at New tier, eligible for entry-level Post campaigns.

  2. 2
    Days 5--10

    Rising

    After 5 verified tasks and a 3-day streak, the nightly job promotes you to Rising. Multi-platform Share campaigns open; weekly cap triples to R450.

  3. 3
    Weeks 3--5

    Trusted

    20 verified tasks and a 7-day streak land you at Trusted. The 1.15x pay multiplier kicks in and the Book module opens -- brands hire you direct.

  4. 4
    Months 3--4

    Gold

    Level 2 KYC + 100 verified tasks + 14-day streak = Gold. Pay jumps to 1.30x, withdrawals go instant at 1.5% fee, and Spotlight inventory opens.

  5. 5
    Months 6--12

    Royal

    Sustained Gold for a quarter + 30-day streak + 2% rejection rate makes you Royal-eligible. The Earnvo team confirms after a brand-safety review -- 47 seats, every one earned.

The Streak System

Show Up Daily. Get Paid To Show Up Daily.

Streaks are the second multiplier on Earnvo. One verified task per day keeps the flame alive. Hit a milestone and a flat ZAR bonus drops straight into your wallet on top of every campaign you completed that day.

Miss a day and the streak resets to zero, but your tier is unaffected. The only thing you lose is the milestone bonus you were building toward.

Caps + Safeguards

Why Lower Tiers Have Weekly Caps.

Caps aren’t a punishment - they’re the railing on the staircase. They protect quality, advertiser budgets, and your own rejection rate. The faster you climb, the higher the railings get and the wider the staircase becomes. Royal earners run unconstrained.

Quality protection

Caps stop newer earners from rage-claiming 50 campaigns and tanking their rejection rate before they understand the briefs.

Fraud throttle

Bot accounts and farms can't compound earnings overnight. The cap forces sustained, observable activity over days, not minutes.

Advertiser trust

Brands need predictable spend. Caps make sure no single earner can drain a campaign's budget before the rest of the platform sees it.

Demotion Rules - What Drops You Down.

Earnvo never silently demotes anyone. Every drop follows one of these rules and shows up as an in-app notification with the exact trigger and the path back. Streak breaks alone never demote you.

3 rejected proofs in any 7-day window

ConsequenceTier review is queued and new claims are throttled for 24 hours.

RecoverySubmit 5 cleanly verified tasks back-to-back to lift the throttle.

Streak break of 7+ days while at Gold or Royal

ConsequenceNo immediate demotion, but progression toward the next month's review pauses.

RecoveryRe-build a 14-day streak before the quarter closes to keep your tier.

Rejection rate exceeds the tier's rolling threshold

ConsequenceYou drop one tier on the next nightly recalculation.

RecoveryPush rejection rate back under the threshold for 30 days, then auto-promote.

Repeat cancellations of claimed campaigns (5 or more in 30 days)

ConsequenceCampaign allocation priority is dampened across the board.

RecoveryHonour 10 claims in a row to fully reset your priority score.

Open advertiser dispute upheld against you

ConsequenceUp to one-tier demotion, plus a 14-day cooling-off on the affected module.

RecoveryComplete the cooling-off and pass any required brief retraining.

Gross misconduct - fake screenshots, off-platform brand abuse, fraud

ConsequencePermanent suspension. Wallet frozen for forensic review.

RecoveryNot eligible - fraud is the only thing Earnvo treats as terminal.

How The Ladder Was Designed

Four Principles That Built The Tier System.

Every line of the tier engine answers to one of these four. They are also the reason Earnvo deliberately chose not to copy creator-economy norms like follower-count gating or pay-to-promote tiers.

Deterministic promotion

No black-box scoring. Every tier-up is a public threshold -- verified-task count, streak length, KYC level, rolling rejection rate. The nightly recalc either ticks each box or it doesn't.

Earned, not bought

You can't pay to skip the ladder. New is the on-ramp for every earner; Royal is reserved for sustained Gold-level performance plus a manual brand-safety review.

Rewards that compound

Pay multiplier -- streak bonuses -- per-tier campaign access -- lower fees. The same hour of work pays four different ways depending on where you sit on the ladder.

Reviewed nightly, never silently

Promotions land at 02:00 SAST with an in-app notification and SMS. Demotions are rare and always flagged with the exact trigger and the path back.

Tier FAQ

Twelve Questions, Twelve Straight Answers.

If you've stared at the table above and asked yourself one of these - we wrote it down.

Tiers recalculate every night at 02:00 SAST. The score uses your verified-task count, current streak length, KYC level, rolling rejection rate over the last 30 days, and any open advertiser disputes. The math is deterministic - there is no 'algorithm vibes', and you can always see your distance to the next tier on your dashboard.
