How Tokens Work

Tokens are the platform currency on Builders.to. They let you promote your posts with sidebar ads and boost your visibility in the community.

Free Members

Earn tokens through referrals, streak milestones, helpful engagement, and reviews. Posting doesn't pay tokens — it builds karma, keeps your streak alive, and unlocks visibility.

Paid Members

Receive a $BUILDERS coin grant worth 20% of your plan value. In-app tokens are still earned through referrals, streaks, helpful engagement, and reviews.

Tip: Paid subscription grants are issued in `$BUILDERS`; in-app tokens remain available for ads, reviews, boosts, and other token-powered actions.
