Understanding Points
Points are the primary currency in the Nudj platform, serving as your spendable balance for purchasing rewards, entering prize drawings, and unlocking exclusive content. Unlike XP which tracks your permanent achievement level, points are a consumable resource that you actively manage and spend.What Are Points?

- Earn through challenges and activities
- Spend on rewards and entries

Purpose | Spendable currency | Status and achievement |
Nature | Consumable - decreases when spent | Permanent - never decreases |
