Hi everyone,
in the past few weeks, likely also due to the extended 30-day free trial, we’ve noticed some users booking assignments to unlock promotions and then letting those assignments expire.
When this behavior repeats, we monitor, contact the users, and in more serious cases, proceed with bans. The problem is that this affects serious users, who may wait days for a review and then see the promotion return active because it wasn’t completed.
For this reason, we are introducing the following change:
👉 Booking an assignment will no longer unlock a promotion
👉 A promotion will be unlocked only once the assignment is completed
Important: an assignment is considered completed when the review is submitted on BookVillage, not when the Amazon link is added.That step counts as verification, not completion.
This may be a temporary change, and we will monitor it over the next few weeks.
