When does it reset?<\/em><ul><li>Every time you unlock your ambassador bonus, you will receive an email confirming the bonus and informing you about your current Streak.<\/li><li>Streaks reset every month, e.g. let\u2019s say you participate for four months in a row. For the first three months, you\u2019ll get the standard 2,500 SPTC bonus for challenge completion. After the fourth month, you\u2019ll receive 3,000 SPTC instead of 2,500. If you complete a fifth month, you\u2019ll get 3,000 again, but if you don\u2019t complete a 5th month, your streak resets and the next month you do complete you\u2019ll be back at the baseline 2,500 SPTC and considered in \u201cmonth 1\u201d<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><em>How do I know how many challenges I\u2019ve completed each month?<\/em><ul><li>Open your app, and click on the \u201cAccount\u201d tab at the bottom right of your screen. Then click \u201cProfile,\u201d then scroll down and you\u2019ll see \u201cChallenges Completed.\u201d That number will reset on the first of every month<\/li><li>Make sure your app is updated to the most recent version!<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><em>What do I do when I complete 50 challenges?<\/em><ul><li>Nothing!

Another way to look at it is less than 2 challenges a day &#8211; you could do this while you walk to and from your car!<\/li><li>There is a section of this doc called \u201cChallenge Inspiration + Tips\u201d where you can find more tips, tricks, and inspiration for completing challenges<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Challenge Inspiration + Tips<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">50 challenges can sound like a lot, but it\u2019s actually quite doable. A challenge is just adding one piece of parking info, like taking a photo of a sign, confirming existing info, reporting an open spot, etc. It should be easy to complete 50 challenges in 1-2 long walks around your neighborhood. Another way to look at it is less than 2 challenges a day &#8211; you could do this while you walk to and from your car!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To complete challenges, head over to the \u201cEarn\u201d tab to see a list of challenges nearby. Alternatively, you can use the Map view, and click on specific blocks to see if there are challenges on that block (if there are challenges, you\u2019ll see a prompt like \u201cAny open spots on this block?\u201d or \u201cThe rules here need verification.\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are a few more ideas to make completing challenges easy and fun:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Get in the habit of doing challenges daily when you let your dog out, or walk to your car, bus stop, or grocery store &#8211; it takes less than a minute to open the app and complete a challenge<\/li><li>Some challenges are extremely quick and easy, like reporting if your block has open parking spots, or sharing your parking spot when you\u2019re leaving &#8212; if you build a habit of doing these in your day to day, you\u2019ll quickly tally a lot of challenges<\/li><li>One long walk, or two medium walks should be enough time to complete 50 challenges. Use that 30m-1hr to catch up with someone you haven\u2019t spoken to in a while!<\/li><li>Bring a friend and get your steps in- think of it like a way to get your steps in and get paid. Bet your friends that you can get more steps in than them<\/li><li>Make it scenic &#8211; take advantage of your city&#8217;s beautiful walking routes, and complete challenges while you walk.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Other Local Outreach<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to take a break from doing challenges? You can elect to help us with other local outreach instead. The goal for these additional challenges should be&nbsp;<strong>securing 10 new users and them each making a contribution.<\/strong>&nbsp;You have a unique signup code you can share that people can make an account through. Here are a few ways to share your code and get signups:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Flyering &#8211; We\u2019ll pay for flyers with your unique signup code, you distribute them however you like<\/li><li>Get coworkers signed up &#8211; Share your signup code with your colleagues on internal communication channels<\/li><li>Party Event &#8211; We may be able to secure a small budget if you want to throw a small party at your favorite local bar or restaurant<\/li><li>Walking event &#8211; Invite 10 friends or coworkers to go on a challenge walk together! Think Pokemon GO style<\/li><li>Farmer\u2019s market &#8211; Pass out your code at your favorite farmer\u2019s market and spend some time chatting with folks who are interested<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you get more than 10 signups and contributions, each one over 10 will count towards a future month! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please reach out to support@spotangels.com or join our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/discord.gg\/jfTqz4V44B\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discord server<\/a> and tag @Admin if you&#8217;d like to choose one of these local outreach options instead of challenges.
