Hello @Enigmatic

The kind of perks offered by Google depends upon the region.

Further, nobody can figure out what would be the next. Keep on making consistent and all round contributions & the offers will continue to come.

Nevertheless, here are some which I observed in the past.

Cloud storage - complimentary for one year

Concession in bus tickets

Fashion-wear on concessional rent.

Discounts on hotel accommodations.

The list will go on. But finally, the most popular one was- a pair of socks.

Hello @Enigmatic ,

There are various perks but they are not specified for every level. The points that you earn lead to higher levels of the program, as well as to benefits like early access to Google features and special perks from partners. Please bear in mind that perks and benefits for the Local Guides program are always changing. Check out this article Question about a Local Guides perk email? Read this first.

Perks for different locations may be offered from time to time. To maximise your chances of being eligible for a future perk opportunity, continue to add high quality contributions to Google Maps.

Please make sure you update your email preferences, visiting your setting so you will receive eventual news involving new perks that we might offer from time to time to Local Guides and which may be offered in your country. This is the best way to be updated about perks.
