A pea is a reward point in the Reward system. You can use it for trading with another member or you can use it to purchase or redeem stuff at the site or its malls. It is the base unit for a token currency system, equivalent to a mode of exchange for trading.
Take one pea or p like a pence. It is a base unit of exchange and when you accumulate more peas, it can become a mountain, and so appreciate the somewhat humble pea, and take it like a golden pea. Indeed!!! As they say: Mighty oaks from little acorns grow!
As a form of appreciation and as an encouragement for participation at the site, you are being justly rewarded as a privileged member, and together, you make the site a place that is more exciting and enjoyable experience.
You can check out your Reward or points account which shows the statistics of your points earned through your activities here at the site at the Reward or Points account page.
For each activity that you partake in, you earn points or peas. For example, for clicking a link and surfing to read an article, you are rewarded with 2 points! For contributing to the site, such as writing an approved article, you are rewarded with more points. When you participate in voting an article, you get one point. And, so similarly, the list goes on.
Here is the list of rules for the pea or point reward system at the site.
There are a lot of other activities apart from the usual physical or digital merchandise exchange which require pea credit to participate in. For example, to play the Jackpot, you need to use up at least one point for each play. For surveys which you want to conduct you need to have at least a credit of ten points to conduct a survey of your own. There are also Raffles and more...
So keep your pea account healthy, just like you would with your own wallet or purse. And, the more points you earn, the more enjoyable and rewarding your membership at the site will be. You can also contribute further to the site by sponsoring the various reward schemes at the site. Check out the many benefits that you or your corporation can derive from such sponsorship. On behalf of all members, thank you in advance of your magnanimous endeavors hereof, and greatly appreciate your kind support!
P.S. The peas are not yet cast in stones as they are still growing, and might be cast in gold in the future. Well, the system is still in the experimental stage so we need to test and gauge users' requirements, etc., so the points allocated may be subject to change without notice or too much notice.
