i am a level 4 local guide. please tell me how to use my points on items.
@dcooljoshua37 Local Guides is a voluntary program for everyone, including yourself and myself to share our local knowledge and experiences to Maps. The contributions points are just there to show and remind us how far we have contributed. Local Guides contribution points cannot be used to redeem gifts or items.
However, once a while, there could be small perks provided to help motivate contributors. Sometimes perks could be announced in LG Connect, so stay active here. And sometimes announced through email.
To set email notification for perks, contributions, product updates etc, head to https://maps.google.com/localguides/home/settings
And you can have a look at this post also which many of the current/previous perks, you can check the details under each link and note the expiry/end date of each
And, there are always Local Guides achievement badges to be obtained and unlocked.
