Points are how Swipe1 rewards early, active and accurate predictors during Season 0. This page explains how you earn them, how Boost Card boosts multiply them, how the referral rebate scheme adds to them, and how it all ladders up toward the airdrop. Every term is defined in the glossary.
How you earn Points
The core loop is simple: you predict by swiping, and predicting earns Points. Being early and active during Season 0 is deliberately rewarded, because the platform is building its first community of predictors before public launch. There is no need to read charts or manage a portfolio to start accumulating.
Boost Cards: 3×, 5× and 10×
Boost Cards let you multiply the Points earned on a prediction you have real conviction in. There are three tiers — 3×, 5× and 10× — so a single well-judged call can be worth far more than a routine swipe. Boost Cards turn accuracy and confidence into a strategy, not just volume. See Boost Cards explained for how to use each tier.
Referral rebates up to 0.8%
The referral program pays you up to 0.8% in rebates based on the activity of people you bring in. It is designed as a growth loop: early users who build a small network are rewarded for helping the market reach the liquidity that makes predictions meaningful.
A worked example: how the pieces stack
Numbers make it concrete. Suppose a routine prediction earns a base of 100 Points. Here is how the same call changes depending on how you play it:
| Scenario | What you do | Points earned |
|---|---|---|
| Base prediction | Swipe on a market | 100 |
| With a 3× Boost Card | Boost a solid call | 300 |
| With a 10× Boost Card | Boost a high-conviction call | 1,000 |
| Plus referrals | Add rebates from active invitees | 1,000 + rebate |
The lesson isn't "boost everything" — a multiplier only pays off when the call is right. The players who climb fastest are the ones who predict consistently, save their 10× for the calls they have genuine conviction in, and let referral rebates compound quietly in the background. (Figures above are illustrative of how multipliers stack; the exact Points values are shown in the app.)
How the pieces fit together
Think of it as three layers on one habit. The habit is predicting — that's the base. Boost Cards reward judgment on top of the habit. Referrals reward helping the market grow. None of them replaces the others: a huge referral network with no predicting still leaves your core score thin, and boosting without accuracy just multiplies your mistakes. The system is deliberately designed so the people who genuinely use Swipe1 well end up on top of the leaderboard.
Season 0 and the airdrop
All of this ladders toward the airdrop. Points earned in Season 0 reflect your early contribution, and your standing is shown publicly on the leaderboard. Season 0 matters more than a normal season precisely because it is first — there are fewer people, so early, consistent predictors have more room to build a standing before the crowd arrives.

Frequently asked questions
How do I start earning Swipe1 Points?
Get Early Access, open the app, and start predicting by swiping. Each prediction earns Points; Boost Cards and referrals increase how many you earn. See the complete Season 0 guide.
What are Boost Cards?
Boost Cards are multipliers — 3×, 5× and 10× — that you apply to a prediction to multiply the Points it earns. They reward conviction and accuracy, not just activity. Full explainer here.
How much does the referral program pay?
The referral program pays up to 0.8% in rebates based on referred users' activity. Details are in the referral program guide.
Do Points guarantee an airdrop allocation?
Points reflect your early activity and standing during Season 0. Any airdrop terms are set by Swipe1 and shown in the app — always rely on the official in-app details rather than assumptions.
