1 · How earnings work

You complete partner quests (surveys, app installs, game milestones, offer walls). When the partner confirms the action, we receive a commission. We credit you Vault points (VP, 100 VP = $1 user credit at 70% split of gross partner revenue) and fulfill Steam rewards from that surplus plus our vault float.

  • Credits land as PENDING until the partner hold clears (3–14 days by network) then become POSTED — available to redeem. Full ledger at /account.
  • We never promise a reward larger than expected partner yield × 70% share after typical clawbacks. See How it works.
  • S2S postbacks only for credit — browser pixels alone don't pay. Endpoint: /api/postback

2 · What we never do

  • Run Steam code generators or “working codes” pages
  • Ask for your Steam password — never share it
  • Claim “no survey” when surveys/offers exist
  • Promise guaranteed $ amounts or instant free $50
  • Use contact-gated “email us after Code #1” redeem theater (killed from 2020 Weebly)
  • Publish fake winner feeds, fake counters, or stock “PROOF” badges
  • Coach VPNs, emulators, multi-accounts, or self-referrals

Kill list enforced from docs/03-old-model-autopsy.md + docs/agents/compliance.md.

3 · Giveaway rules

Giveaways are scheduled, rules publish before each draw, winners post publicly. They are funded as acquisition COGS from surplus margin — not an uncapped “everyone gets a code” promise.

  • Eligibility: 16+ (or 18+ where local law / partner requires); void where prohibited
  • Entry: Vaultquest account + optional VP or quest completion as stated per giveaway page (/giveaways)
  • Selection: random draw or stated method; winner handle published on giveaways page
  • Announcement: site post + community (Facebook Page / Discord when live)
  • Prize delivery: Steam code / key DM or email as listed; must claim within window stated in rules

4 · Winners & redemption proof

LIVE FEED — REAL DATA ONLY

First winners publish after the first completed giveaway draw. Redacted redemption confirmations may be shown with permission. We never invent proof. Until the ledger has redemptions, this section states: “First winners publish after [date of first draw].”

Future: ledger-backed stats (total VP credited, redemptions fulfilled) replace screenshots as trust signal.

5 · Partner & affiliate disclosure

Vaultquest uses third-party offer and survey networks (Torox, Lootably, AdGate Media, BitLabs, ayeT Studios, CPX Research) and affiliate programs such as Freecash on Impact. Some links on /earn are affiliate/partner links — we may earn when you complete qualifying offers. Link rotation automatically fails over to a healthy partner if a link caps or goes unhealthy; every rotation is logged per docs/04-affiliate-constraints.md.

6 · Account & anti-fraud rules

One person, one account. Partner networks ban VPN/proxy, emulators, and multi-account farming — so do we. We may delay (hold) or reverse (void/clawback) points after partner rejections. Severe abuse → restrict or ban. Full outline in Terms.

We detect: device farms, VPN on restricted offers, self-referrals/rings, bots, giveaway multi-entry, chargeback patterns via postback.
We don't auto-punish: single VPN on unrestricted content, shared household IP if not farming, slow earners, first device change with clean history.

7 · Creator / ad disclosure

Videos and ads promoting Vaultquest or partner quests must disclose sponsorship/affiliates. On YouTube: verbal disclosure early in the video and written disclosure in the first 3 lines of the description. Example: “This video promotes Vaultquest; we may earn when you complete offers via our links.” Our channel @zakai1769 → rebranding to Vaultquest follows this policy. Creators who teach fraud lose affiliate status.

8 · Contact & support

Support is for account or redemption issues — not “email us your Freecash screenshot for a code” (that flow is dead). Use /contact (saved + emailed via Resend when configured) or the Vault Assistant chat (◈) on every page.
