Rewards

Make sure to update your app to version 7.62 or later. For help updating your app, check out our support article. Most Season 1 rewards had an expiration date of February 23rd, 2026. If you did not claim them before the expiration date, you will not be able to do so now. To see if a reward is still available to claim, check out the 'Rewards' tab on MetaMask Mobile, and you'll see a countdown timer for available rewards.

Linea allocation

The Linea allocation is now available for distribution. You will need to have ETH on Linea to cover the gas cost for the claim. To get ETH on Linea, you can use MetaMask Swaps, or click 'Buy' in MetaMask Mobile.

* Token allocation is proportional to the points you earn compared to the total number of points earned by all users in Season 1.


How were points calculated?

The following table shows what actions were eligible for points during Season 1, and how many points you earned based on the transaction’s USD value.

ActionPoints earned
Swaps8 points for every $10 swapped on supported networks with MetaMask Swaps*
Perps trades1 point for every $10 traded when manually opening or closing a position, or a TP or SL trade is executed
Prediction trades2 points for every $1 trade placed on eligible prediction markets
MetaMask Card transactions1 point for every $1 spent with MetaMask Card
Referrals10 points for every 50 points generated by a referred user from trading activity

* Supported networks are Ethereum Mainnet, Linea, OP Mainnet, BSC, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, Avalanche, zkSync, TRON, and Solana.

The above amounts scaled in proportion to the transaction amount. For example, if you swapped $50 worth of USDC on Ethereum Mainnet, you’d have earned 40 points.

Technically speaking, points were calculated based on the fee paid for the transaction, which scaled with the value of the transaction. When you paid a full fee, you earned the full number of points for the transaction. If you paid a discounted fee, you earned a proportionate number of points. For example, when you reached level 4, you received a 50% perps fee discount, so you earned 50% of the points for those discounted transactions.

Points were only awarded for transactions that included a fee. Certain transactions may not have fees at times, including certain prediction market trades, in which case no points were awarded for those transactions.

How did MetaMask calculate points across different tokens and currencies?

MetaMask calculated the USD value of the token you’re transacting with at the time the transaction was confirmed on chain.

For example, if you swapped 2 ETH into USDC, your points were calculated by the value of ETH in USD when the transaction was confirmed on chain. Because of this, the estimated points shown on the transaction’s confirmation screen may differ slightly from the actual points earned.

Timeline

Season 1 ended on Thursday, January 22nd at 11:00pm EST. End of season rewards are available to redeem until February 23rd, 2026.

The $LINEA allocation follows a slightly different timeline. It is now available for distribution.
