Contribution is not a tip jar
Creator Rewards is a company-funded program. When a period is open, eligible accounts can receive an allocation from that pool. There is no “pay me $X per capture” rate, and there is no conversion from Credits.
The program is currently paused. You can still do the work it is designed to recognise.
What “genuine” means in practice
Live originals over imports. Breadth over repeating one easy species. Capture quality over a pile of low-grade frames. Consistency over a single spike. Community Gifts, if counted later, are event signals — not the Credit price of the Gift.
What never becomes Earnings
Credits, AnimalDex Score, Capture XP, Gift spend, PvP wins, and Pack sales stay on the Credits side of the firewall. If someone tells you otherwise, they have the product wrong.
