Eligibility for getting perks

I am a fresh local guide level 6. When will I be getting my perks?

Hi @shankara_narayan ,

There is no fixed criteria for getting perks. If any perk is available in your area, you will get email. Make sure to check the perk email preferences in Local Guide Setting Page.

@shankara_narayan as what Madan shared, there are no fixed criteria for perks for Local Guides.

One thing I can also suggest is that you add high quality contributions consistently on Maps including good photos and useful reviews. That will increase your chances of being identified as a high quality contributor. (Volume of contribution is not as important as quality in my opinion).

Also, you may provide feedback on what perks would be useful by sharing in Idea Exchange.

Happy contributing.

Very well said @StephenAbraham

Moreover, This programme is more about passionate people, who like to contribute towards society for the convenience of others rather than thinking about his/her own good. Who feels happy if their contribution helped others in any possible way. For instance, I started as a local guide when I got misguided by an incorrect place marking and then I had to suffer in scorching summer. Firstly I corrected that place marker and then there was no looking back. It gives a pride feel when people acknowledge your contribution through likes and feedback.
