Responsible Play
GeoPulse is designed to make following global affairs more engaging and rewarding. We are committed to ensuring the platform remains a positive experience for everyone who uses it.
Virtual Tokens Only
GeoPulse operates entirely on a virtual token economy. Tokens have no monetary value, cannot be withdrawn, and cannot be exchanged for real currency, goods, or services. There is no real-money wagering on GeoPulse.
How the Token System Works
Every new user receives 2,500 free tokens when they create an account. Tokens can be replenished at any time through the daily rewards system:
- Daily claim: 50-200 tokens available every 24 hours at no cost
- Streak bonuses: Consecutive daily claims earn increasing bonus rewards, with 7-day streaks unlocking the highest amounts
- No paywall: Full access to all markets and features is available without spending any money
Optional token top-up packs are available as in-app purchases for users who wish to increase their balance. These purchases support the development of GeoPulse but are never required to participate.
Designed for Education and Engagement
The core purpose of GeoPulse is to encourage informed engagement with global affairs. By taking positions on geopolitical events, users develop a deeper understanding of the forces shaping the world. The prediction market format rewards careful analysis, not luck.
Push notifications keep you informed when news breaks on topics where you hold positions. The goal is straightforward: the act of predicting makes you a more informed citizen.
Tips for Healthy Engagement
Decide how much time you want to spend on the app each day and stick to it. GeoPulse is meant to complement your news consumption, not replace it.
Use your prediction results as a feedback mechanism. When you get a prediction wrong, examine why. The value is in the analysis, not the outcome.
Explore markets across all seven regions rather than fixating on a single topic. Broader exposure leads to better understanding of how global events interconnect.
If you find yourself feeling anxious about your positions or spending more time than intended, step away. The markets will still be there when you return.
Virtual tokens exist to make the experience engaging. A low token balance has no real-world consequence. You can always replenish through daily rewards.
Our Commitment
As GeoPulse grows, we are committed to:
- Maintaining the virtual token system as the default way to play
- Ensuring free token replenishment is always available
- Never pressuring users to make purchases
- Providing account deletion at any time through the app settings
- Complying with all applicable regulations as our platform evolves
