Community Points (CPs)

Community Points are a way to reward our testers for a variety of non-testing related tasks. This includes, but is not limited to:Recruiting testers, writing a guest blog post,Participating in a test after being queued as a back-up tester, or simply by being a great tester and making our day.In general, testers can earn CPs by contributing positively to the Testbirds community. Unlike Experience Points, these points are not competitive and won’t be displayed to other testers on the Dashboard. The only aspect of CPs that is somewhat competitive is “tester recruiting”. You can see the top recruiters on your Dashboard in the table titled “Top 10 Bird Recruiters and You”. You can recruit your friends and earn CPs with your own tracking link and sharing it.  Community Points: Achievements and Values Action CPs Uploading your first profile picture*  5 Recruiting new testers    Regular Recruiting  10   Special Recruiting 40-80 Made-my-Day 5-20 Guest Blog Post 40 Participating after the Queue 10 Bird of the Month (Special Accomplishment) 50 Other Achievements 5-100 Birdmasters are free to award Community Points in additional cases, when applicable. Regular Recruiting can be done by any one of our testers, and it simply involves referring someone to our Nest by using your personal referral link. 

Special Recruiting is when we ask testers to recruit people with specific criteria. For example, if we need testers in the Maldives who go scuba diving regularly, we would ask our testers to help recruit this unique group of people for us and in turn earn community points!Please note, Community Points for recruiting new testers will currently not be awarded in real time. We'd kindly ask for your patience.*If you haven't been awarded the points, please upload your profile picture again.
