Achievements and Premium
This section explains the achievement system, premium subscription benefits, and how to unlock special features.
What it is
Core elements
- Achievement badges: special recognition for moderators, verified practitioners, and content creators.
- Premium subscription: time-limited access to enhanced features and content.
- Badge display: achievements shown in your profile and next to your name in sessions.
- Premium status: displays subscription duration and days remaining.
Achievement types
The platform has three achievement badges:
Team (MOD): - Description: "Moderator" - member of the platform team. - Access: unlocks the Moderation panel with tools for managing promo codes, sending notifications, and moderating content. - How to get: granted by platform administrators to team members. - Visibility: displayed as "MOD" badge in your profile.
Pro (PRO): - Description: "Verified practice" - certified or verified practitioner. - Access: enhanced profile visibility and professional recognition. - How to get: earned through verification process or granted via promo code. - Visibility: displayed as "PRO" badge in your profile.
Contributor (CONTR): - Description: "Content creator" - the author of published decks or rooms. - Access: the badge itself does not unlock the editors - those are open to anyone signed in. The badge marks the author for other users. - How to get: granted to users who contribute quality content or via promo code. - Visibility: displayed as "CONTR" badge in your profile.
Premium subscription
Premium is a time-limited subscription that you can buy with pearls or activate with a promotional code:
What Premium includes: - Ten slots for your own decks and ten for rooms instead of one (the PRO badge adds five more of each) - Persistent sessions: up to 20 slots for Premium, up to 5 for PRO - A session password, plus the "Hide participant cursors" and "Move own items only" rules - Air with no weekly minute limit - Higher Public API limits
Subscription properties: - Time-limited: Premium is granted for a specific number of days (e.g., 30 days, 90 days, 365 days). - Countdown: your profile shows "Active until" date and days remaining. - No auto-renewal: Premium does not automatically renew - buy more days with pearls or activate a new promo code when it expires. - Activation: buy with pearls (from 150 pearls for 1 day to 10,000 for 365 days) or activate a promotional code. See Pearls and Marketplace.

Multiple achievements
You can have multiple achievement badges simultaneously. For example, a team member could have both MOD and PRO badges.
Understanding Premium status
The Premium status section shows your subscription state:
Active subscription: - Status: "Premium Subscription" - Active until: exact date when Premium expires (e.g., "Active until: April 15, 2027") - Days remaining: countdown indicator (e.g., "45 days") - Visual: green or highlighted styling to indicate active status
Inactive subscription: - Status: "Premium Subscription" - Message: "No active subscription" - Call to action: "Activate a promo code to get Premium access"
Unlocking achievements and Premium
Premium can be bought with pearls or activated with a promo code; achievements are unlocked through promotional codes. To redeem a code:
- Obtain a promo code: from platform administrators, promotions, or partnerships.
- Sign in to your account (required for activation).
- Open Profile panel and scroll to "Activate promo code" section.
- Enter the code (minimum 8 characters, case-insensitive).
- Click "Activate": the system verifies and applies the code.
- Success notification: shows what was unlocked (Premium days, achievements).
- Profile updates: new badges and Premium status appear immediately.
See the Promo Codes section for detailed activation instructions and error handling.
Using Team features (MOD badge)
If you have the Team achievement:
- Moderation panel becomes available in the sidebar.
- Open Moderation panel to access team tools.
- Manage promo codes: generate, check, apply, and revoke codes.
- Send notifications: create custom notifications for users.
- Moderate content: review user-submitted decks and rooms, and handle reports and copyright notices.
See the Moderation Panel section for complete team tools documentation.
Creating your own content
The editors are open to anyone signed in:
- Deck editor: create custom card decks with image and word cards.
- Room editor: design custom room backgrounds with colors, images, and tile patterns.
- Upload and publish: share your creations with the community after moderation.
- Manage your content: edit or remove your published decks and rooms.
How many decks and rooms you can hold at once depends on status: one slot without a subscription, ten with Premium, plus five with the PRO badge. The Contributor badge appears for authors of published content and does not affect access to the editors.
Scenarios
- Check Premium expiration: open Profile to see days remaining and plan code activation.
- Team member workflow: use Moderation panel to manage promo codes and notifications.
- Content creator: publish a deck and get the Contributor badge on your profile.
- Professional recognition: Pro badge indicates verified practitioner status to session participants.
- Multi-badge user: combine Team and Pro badges for full access and recognition.
Tips and errors
- Achievements are permanent: once unlocked, badges remain on your account forever.
- Premium is time-limited: subscription expires after the granted period ends.
- Sign-in required: both achievements and Premium require an authenticated account.
- Badge visibility: your badges are visible to all participants in your sessions.
- No stacking: activating multiple Premium codes adds days together (e.g., two 30-day codes = 60 days total).
- Expiration reminder: check your Premium status regularly to avoid service interruption.
- Team access: MOD badge is the only way to access moderation tools.
- Buying Premium: Premium can be bought with pearls or activated with a promo code. Achievements are earned or granted via promo code (not sold).
- Profile synchronization: badges and Premium status sync across all your devices.
