Local guide gift

Do we get any gifts or perks by reviews and all, and if we do then how do we get them. Just curious :wink:

Hello @Uri9191

We do get some fringe benefits in the form of perks.

To know more about that, I suggest going through this article.

Hi @The_kumarji

Welcome to Connect. On this forum, you could meet, interact, share, and also read the stories from our fellow Local Guides around the world, including food & drinks, travel, culture, and many more.

Since you are new, please take a look at this awesome post about Your guide to Connect .

Thank you for the response @C_T

I’ve marked you answer as the solution.

@The_kumarji just like the response, we as a Local Guide could get the perks from Google. Please subscribe your email to Perks, and note that perks will be different based on the regions. The time when the perks will be given to you might be different from one Local Guide to another Local Guide.

Hello @The_kumarji ,

Thank you for reaching out and welcome on Connect!

I am going to move your post to the How-tos section of the forum, the place where Local Guides ask questions related to Connect and Google Maps.

When do we achieve perk from google ? And how do we get it?

Hi @GKU ,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

Thanks for reaching out to us!

The Local Guides program is a voluntary program and is all about helping each other with our contributions. There are some rewards, given from time to time as a ‘‘thank you’’ from Google for your quality contributions, however, there isn’t a promised reward for participating or reaching a certain level. You can read more about it in this article. I also recommend that you check this discussion where you will find some of the reasons for being a Local Guide.

To maximize your chances of being eligible for a future reward opportunity, continue to add high quality contributions to Google Maps and make sure to update your email preferences.

Hello

I’ve got an email from Google regarding a special reward for my contributions as a local guide, but they forgot to put the “voucher code” in the email.

I’m attaching the screenshot, so that you can see, please tell me how do I let

them know about this mistake

Same with me

Please help i too face this problem. Why do they even send the mail if they didn’t even want us to redeem it.

I also haven’t received it from google yet what should I do to get it
