GeoQuestr — Official activity policy

Last updated: 27 August 2025

This Official activity policy explains how GeoQuestr designates certain user-generated activities ("Activities") as Official activities, and how this status relates to the GeoQuestr Royalty Program described in the Terms of Service.

1. Purpose of Official activities

Official activities represents the highest-quality, most engaging, and safest experiences on GeoQuestr. It helps users discover reliable and rewarding activities, while rewarding creators whose work contributes most to the platform’s value.

How we intend to reward creators with Official Activities:

Creators with Official Activities can be eligible to receive a share of the annual Royalty Pool, provided they meet the eligibility requirements set out in the Terms of Use.

Royalty Pool: An amount equal to 10% of GeoQuestr’s net profit for a distribution period, allocated to eligible holders of Official Activities. Net Profit (for this program only): GeoQuestr’s profit from ordinary operations after operating expenses (including hosting, staff, moderation, payment processing, taxes, and legal reserves), excluding extraordinary/one-time items, calculated according to our internal financial reports prepared under applicable Swedish accounting standards. We may publish a brief methodological summary with each distribution. Distribution Period: Each calendar year.

2. Eligibility for Official Status

To be considered for Official designation, Activities must check the following:

  1. Quality & Engagement

  2. Editorial Review: GeoQuestr’s team reviews new Activities regularly for quality, safety, and compliance.
  3. Community Signals: Engagement metrics (plays, completions, ratings, reports) influence prioritization.
  4. Decision: GeoQuestr may designate Activities as Official at its discretion. Creators will be notified in-app or by email.
  5. Ongoing Monitoring: Official status may be withdrawn if Activities quality declines, safety/terms violations arise or for any other reason decided by the GeoQuestr team.

4. Relationship to GeoQuestr Royalty Program

  • Only Official activities qualifies for a share of the yearly Royalty Pool.
  • Creators must also meet the eligibility conditions in the Terms of Service (active paid subscription, compliance with rules).
  • Allocation within the Royalty Pool considers engagement, quality/safety signals, and diversity weights.
  • Activities that loses Official status before the end of a Distribution Period will not qualify for payout in that period.

GeoQuestr may update these weights from time to time to ensure fairness and sustainability. Any updates will apply prospectively.
