Missed the local guide reward mail perhaps

Google Maps tips & tricks

My account is quite old, and I didn’t read mails I just cleared them I’m 75% sure I have missed the email.

But my local guide level was 2 or 3

Now I’m at level 6

Have I missed it? I don’t know, how can I know if I have received a mail or not, is there a link or something?

Hi @ArchiBhalia and @ravikant28

It sounds like you believe there are rewards linked and guaranteed to your level.

I’m sorry, there is not. Please let me know how you came to believe this.

There is no pattern, and there’s no fairness in who gets rewards. It is just a marketing gimmick.

My motivation is the joy of knowing that I’m helping a lot of people and businesses. Also, making new friends here on Connect can be considered a great peek. I find it very rewarding being a Local Guide.

Hang in there, keep up the good work and maybe one day it’ll be your turn.

You can learn more about perks by reading: Questions about Local Guides rewards. Also Why be a local guide? is worth a read.

And finally, make sure Rewards is selected in your email settings found here. And update the location to show your current location.

Cheers
Morten

There is no backup system or link to check if you recieved a rewards email. Sorry. But I have seen some Local Guides mention that they got a reminder email before the deadline for claiming a reward.

All the best

I check my mail twice even thrice a day XD I got no patience… my friend on level 5 he received the mail. Bro has less contribution than me. And I’m super active.

I even enjoy the process I added, edited places and roads which were unnamed or wrong locations.

But sometimes I feel like nothing matters because he did so less work still he got the reward, while here me with no reply.

I agree with @MortenCopenhagen it is just a marketing perk, well I have received the email and code but it showing me expired.

I am a google my business and google publisher product expert. Look into it.

Thank you in advance
