Actions Verification Methods

While we attempt to verify all actions where possible, it’s always a good idea to check winning entries to ensure action was taken.

You can see what steps were taken to verify the action by clicking ‘show entries’ for the user. In the example below, this user’s winning entry was a refer a friend and the user that was referred is listed.

Action Verification Methods:

    We verify the user has clicked the URL link. Another question we get quite often is can you verify likes and shares. See this article.
