Perks on Google Maps

[Kkumar]

Are there any perks for reviewing on Google Maps. Anyone who has received anything from other partners?

Hi @Kkumar Welcome to Local Guide Connect Community

Nice to meet you 🙂 right now there are no perks rolled out to any one but don't have to worry about that because eventually you'll get one 😉. As you know being a Local Guide, you earn points for sharing reviews, photos, and knowledge on Google Maps. Those points lead to higher levels of the program, as well as benefits like early access to Google features and special perks from partners. Perks and benefits for the Local Guides program are always changing.  Benefits like invites to special events are made available to our high quality and actively contributing Local Guides. Here is a review of our points system. 

Local Guides also enjoy early access to new product features as well as occasional perks from some of our partners and benefits from Google. There is no financial compensation from being a Local Guide as this is an at-will program that you are free to contribute to at your own leisure. 

To make sure you are in the know on future updates, please ensure your email-settings are set to receive updates on 'Perks' and 'News & Product Updates'

Just wait my first you'll get one 🙂 

Happy Guiding ! Happy Mapping.

Reagrds,

I'm also waiting to notice any "perks" as early access to new features isn't exactly thrilling.

Perks would be good.
