Audience members can earn collectible badges by engaging with their favorite creators or brands. These badges mark a certain event or time in history and can also be pieces to completing a challenge. You can share your progress and gain recognition from the community in a safe and secure environment. ### What are badges? Badges are exclusive digital collectibles created by your favorite creators and brands, just for their biggest supporters. Earn them by engaging with content, making purchases, attending events, or completing unique challenges. Each badge tells a story and celebrates your connection to the communities you love. Start building your collection and show off achievements! ### What are badge types? There are 3 main types of badges: - **Engagement — Limited Quantity**: These badges are claimed through engaging in your favourite Creator or Brand's content, both online and in real life. There is a pre-determined number of badges created. - **Engagement — Open Quantity**: These badges are claimed through engaging in your favourite Creator or Brand's content, both online and in real life. There is not a fixed number of badges pre-created but will usually be available during a certain window of time. - **Exclusive**: This badge marks your completion of a challenge and increases your score 2X more than engagement badges. ### How to claim badges? 1. Follow your favourite Creators and Brands that are on KOR Crew on social media. 2. Engage with their content on KOR Crew (All badges and Challenges areas), and social media to claim their newest badge! Creators can drop you a message right here in KOR about their latest news and exclusive offers. Keep an eye on your messages. ### What are claim codes? Some badges are released with special codes. These special codes are called claim codes. These codes serve a purpose of verifying that the correct badge goes to the correct member. ### How to be the first on the Leaderboard? The faster you claim a badge, the rarer it becomes, awarding you a higher score and propelling you higher on the leaderboard! Follow the socials of your favourite Creators and keep a close eye on KOR Crew so you know when a badge is first released. When you engage on KOR you also increase your overall score (e.g. comment, upvote, or react to community posts). So make sure to share your thoughts and get rewarded! Your favourite Creator can also see the leaderboard and award their top members with special offers, like limited edition badges, invites to exclusive events, free gifts, and other cool rewards. ### What are challenges? Conquer challenges that are set up by your Creator or Brand. You will be able to claim badges in both real life as well as online. Once you complete challenges you will receive an exclusive badge that can unlock perks, prizes, and other fun rewards! Remember, challenges have deadlines, and there might be a limited number of badges up for grabs. So don't miss out, act fast! ### All about messages Stay connected with your favourite Creators and Brands! They can send you messages to make sure you're in on the latest news, exclusive offers, and special events. Don't miss out on all the exciting updates they have to share! ### What are collaborations? Collaboration means that two Creators or Brands joined forces to make a badge together. So when you see a badge labeled as a collaboration, it's a special badge that was created by two awesome Creators/Brands working together. --- ## Community Guidelines Source: [korcrew.com/community-guidelines](https://korcrew.com/community-guidelines) Welcome to our community!
