I see you are fairly new on the connect forum. Therefore I’ll endeavour to extend a welcome to connect hands to you. Maybe a **Welcome-to-Connect-Card **is also appropriate for you at this stage. The card is a post that quickly shows you around connect. It also contains links that should be useful to you. To help you navigate and operate well on connect as a forum.
That’s said I’ll just letting you know that there is a possibility of a thank you token,perk or rewards items. It’s unpredictable really. Nevertheless please find in this thread post replies etc regarding perks. Please read this post Question-about-a-Local-Guides-reward-email-Read-this-first .
Lastly please be informed that I’m merging your post in here. To keep connect organised and also to let you know how it goes regarding your question about perks. Our services as a local guide os quite priceless and well appreciated though. The greatest perks you get as a voluntary contributor is the fact that millions are benefiting from your contributions.
Lol I got a mail in 2019 and Never received it even after filling up all required information. It got lost, god knows where or even if it was shipped at all or not. Only some out of many who get these reward mail, actually get the reward. Rest it’s luck! and no one in this community have any answers for the same. I’m level-7, but after contributing so much and getting absolutely nothing in return, except some fake reward mails - I lost Interest in contributing!!
I too haven’t recieved any perks and benefits or gift as told by this program. I am contributing for 5 year now once got socks gift link but not received yet a years passed . No value for contributor.
Please be informed that am merging your post into the thread about Rewards and perks . Please feel free to go through the main thread and comments. It will help answer your questions.
Don’t take all the posts of my channel personal
And I have successfully removed all the photos which could be controversial
I am not a copier
Not all the photos which I have uploaded are copied
There are a bunch of other photos on my account that are clicked by myself only
I was asking about reward for my earlier contributions
Need more proof? In my opinion, if you really want to be a part of Local Guides Connect, you should start from zero, clean up your profile of stolen photos, and really get familiar with the ground rules of the program you have accepted and start following them.
Local guide is a volunteering program, you won’t get anything for contributing on Google maps but Google will recognize you as a Local Guide for your contribution. Anyway, you will get points for your every contributions on Google Maps and you can raise up your local guides levels.
However, Google Local Guides perks depends on quality contribution on Google Maps; Google sends some perks to Local Guides for high-quality contributions. Moreover, to receive perks, you must be subscribed to emails about them and contribute regularly on Maps. Please be sure that your email preferences have perk emails enabled by visiting your Local Guides settings .
