Yokefellow Rewards Policy
How Yokefellow Rewards credit works, including earned YES credits, withdrawals, campaign rules, and abuse prevention.
Yokefellow Rewards Policy
Yokefellow Rewards is the bucket used to back YES credits earned through approved Yokefellow campaigns.
This bucket may support referral campaigns, social participation, community onboarding, app activity, promotional actions, or other approved Yokefellow reward paths. The purpose is simple: when Yokefellow says a user earned a reward, that reward should have a clear bucket record behind it instead of being handled as a vague off-platform promise.
What reward credit means
Reward credit is YES-denominated bucket credit assigned through an approved Yokefellow reward path.
Reward credit is not the same thing as a completed purchase, captured contribution, raffle entry, investment, or guaranteed outcome. It is credit made available to the user inside the Yokefellow Rewards bucket, subject to the rules of the campaign that created it and the platform rules that apply to Yokefellow activity.
Available reward credit may be used inside Yokefellow where supported. If the bucket posture allows withdrawal, unspent available reward credit may also be withdrawable. Once reward credit is spent, reserved, consumed, reversed, or otherwise committed under the applicable campaign or platform rule, it may no longer be withdrawable.
Withdrawable until spent
The Yokefellow Rewards bucket is intended to behave as a credit-style bucket.
That means reward credit is not automatically captured at the moment it is credited. A user may have available reward credit before choosing what to do with it. If withdrawal is supported for that credit and no restriction applies, the user may withdraw unspent available credit.
Once the user spends that credit inside Yokefellow, the credit becomes part of the action it was used for. At that point, it is no longer simply available reward credit. It may be treated as spent, reserved, consumed, or committed depending on the action taken.
The practical rule is:
Available reward credit can still be used.
Withdrawable reward credit can still be withdrawn where supported.
Reserved reward credit is already committed to a pending action.
Spent reward credit has already been consumed by a completed or committed path.
How users may earn rewards
Yokefellow may create campaigns that reward users for approved actions. Examples may include:
referring another user to Yokefellow
joining an official Yokefellow community surface
connecting or verifying a social account where required
sharing an approved Yokefellow post or message
completing an onboarding action
participating in an approved app or bucket activity
completing another campaign-specific task announced by Yokefellow
A campaign may have its own reward amount, start date, end date, eligibility rule, completion rule, review requirement, cap, wallet limit, fraud-control rule, or payout schedule. The campaign-specific rule controls the reward path for that campaign.
Referral and social campaign rules
Referral and social rewards are only valid when the required action is completed in the way the campaign describes.
A referral may require a real new user, a connected wallet, a completed account step, a qualifying action, or another stated completion event. A social reward may require the user to connect the relevant account, complete the stated action, keep the post or action visible for a required period, or satisfy another campaign rule.
Yokefellow may reject or reverse rewards for fake accounts, duplicate accounts, self-referrals, spam, bot activity, purchased engagement, misleading posts, deleted actions, manipulated metrics, or other behavior that does not match the purpose of the campaign.
Review, delay, and reversal
Some rewards may appear immediately. Others may require review, delay, confirmation, or later processing.
Yokefellow may review reward activity before or after credit appears in the user’s account. Reward credit may be delayed, limited, rejected, reversed, paused, or corrected where Yokefellow believes it is necessary for campaign integrity, abuse prevention, legal compliance, security, platform safety, or operational accuracy.
A visible reward record does not mean every related platform surface has finished updating. Wallet displays, bucket balances, activity feeds, and indexing may update at different times.
Abuse prevention
Yokefellow may limit, reject, reverse, suspend, or block rewards connected to abusive or manipulated activity.
Examples include:
duplicate or fake accounts
self-referrals
bot activity
spam campaigns
misleading claims about Yokefellow
attempts to exploit bugs or stale states
automated social activity that violates campaign rules
wallet cycling or identity manipulation
coordinated abuse of reward paths
activity that violates Yokefellow’s Terms of Service or other platform rules
Yokefellow may also limit reward availability by wallet, user, campaign, region, time period, action type, platform surface, or available bucket funding.
No guarantee of future rewards
Yokefellow Rewards may change over time.
A campaign may be paused, ended, adjusted, capped, replaced, or removed. A reward amount available in one campaign may not be available in another. Yokefellow does not guarantee that any campaign will continue indefinitely or that future campaigns will use the same terms.
Rewards are meant to support real participation, onboarding, and platform activity. They are not a guarantee of profit, return, price appreciation, market liquidity, or future platform benefit.
Bucket funding and availability
The Rewards bucket must have enough available backing for reward credit to remain meaningful. Yokefellow may pause or delay reward issuance if the bucket is not funded, if funding is being reconciled, if the platform is experiencing stale reads or operational delay, or if additional review is needed.
Campaign rewards may be limited by the amount of YES available for that campaign or by the operating limits Yokefellow sets for the Rewards bucket.
Taxes and user responsibility
Users are responsible for understanding any tax, reporting, or legal obligations that may apply to rewards they receive, use, transfer, or withdraw. Yokefellow does not provide tax, legal, investment, accounting, or financial advice through this policy.
Final rule
Yokefellow Rewards exists to make earned participation credit readable.
The bucket should show where reward credit comes from, what rules apply, what remains available, what has been spent, what may be withdrawn, and what may still depend on review or platform processing. The goal is not to hide rewards in private bookkeeping. The goal is to make the reward path clear enough that users can understand what they earned and what they can do with it.
