Within SmartDollar, we assign you "SmartDollar Points" for completing different activities and generally interacting with the site. For example, listening to a three-minute Ask Dave call will earn you 20 points, but watching a main lesson video will earn you a whopping 250 points!
Points help you understand how you are using SmartDollar and give you something to aim for as you work through the course. Working through all the video lessons and using the tools, like the Debt Snowball tool and EveryDollar, can help you to reach your goals. Earn as many points as you can and know you're taking the right steps to improve your money situation!
Some employers also use the points system to reward employee participation. Please check with your HR or Benefits team to clarify if they are running any incentives. We report the number of points you earn to your employer on a regular basis. They will then update any third party "wellness" or benefits site that rewards or tracks your participation.
