Reward Engine (DeCharge Points)
The DeCharge network is not just a charging solution, it is an infrastructure model that aligns economic incentives with energy access. The Reward Engine is what makes this possible. It translates real-world energy output into measurable, verifiable, and performance-based rewards distributed across a decentralized community of hosts, contributors, and operators.
At its core, the DeCharge Reward Engine ensures that those who build and maintain the network are fairly and transparently compensated for their role in powering electric mobility.
A Data-Driven Model
Unlike fixed pricing or central operator models, the DeCharge Reward Engine is dynamic. It adapts to:
How much energy a charger dispenses
How consistently it stays online
Where it is placed geographically
When it was deployed (early adopters receive multipliers)
How well it complies with operational guidelines
All of these parameters are captured via telemetry and processed through a deterministic reward formula.
The Reward Formula
Each charger earns DeCharge Points based on its performance and through A Data-Driven Model, which contributes to the revenue a charger owner receives and can be converted into future network incentives.
Key Incentive Levers
To make the system inclusive, transparent, and effective, DeCharge’s reward logic is built around five core levers:
Energy Dispensed
The more kWh your charger delivers, the more points you earn.
Encourages proactive use, community sharing, and optimal placement.
Uptime Consistency
Chargers must stay online and responsive.
Helps ensure the network remains reliable for users at all times.
Geographic Prioritization
Higher multipliers for devices installed in underserved or high-demand regions.
This brings infrastructure to where it is needed most.
Deployment Cohort
Early adopters are rewarded for taking the initial risk.
This applies a time-weighted bonus to incentivize early growth phases.
Reliability Bonus
Devices with no faults for multiple epochs receive compounded bonuses.
Encourages long-term care and operational diligence.
Who Earns Rewards?
DeCharge rewards are distributed to the following participant groups based on real-time activity:
Hosts
Power provision, space, uptime and maintenance
Fiat / Stables
Reimbursement of electricity costs and share of revenue
Device Buyers
Ownership and deployment support
DeCharge Points
Investing in devices
Community Referrers
Device referrals and deployment growth
Stables / DeCharge Points
for onboarding new device buyers
Partner Projects (DePIN Collabs)
Joint deployments in shared infrastructure zones
DeCharge Points and Partner Rewards
For being supporter in partner bundles
Each participant’s earnings are linked to the performance of their associated charger pool(s), not just purchase or registration.
Examples: Earning Scenarios
Let’s walk through couple of sample scenarios to understand how rewards play out:
Example 1: Residential Host in Tier 2 City
Device: DeCharge Mini (3.3 kW)
Usage: 25 kWh/day
Uptime: 59/60 hours
Location: Underserved suburb
Reward Outcome: Receives high uptime multiplier + location bonus. Total reward = 3x base point value.
Example 2: Beast Charger at Commercial Site
Device: DeCharge Beast (7.4 kW)
Usage: 100 kWh/day
Uptime: 57/60 hours
Location: High-density urban area
Reward Outcome: Large energy output but average multiplier due to well-served area. Total reward = 2x base point value.
Example 3: Titan Mini at Fleet Depot
Device: Titan Mini (30 kW)
Usage: 350 kWh/day
Uptime: 60/60 hours
Location: Intercity logistics corridor
Reward Outcome: High throughput + location multiplier = 4x base point value.
This ensures that both high-usage and high-impact deployments are meaningfully rewarded.
DeCharge Points
DeCharge Points, earned by chargers, can be:
Viewed via the Host Dashboard
Used to qualify for future campaigns or referral incentives
Logged transparently on the backend for community audits
The DeCharge Points are convertible to Future Network Incentives.
Transparent, Auditable, and Aligned
The DeCharge Reward Engine is not just a backend script, it is the economic heart of a community-run energy infrastructure.
Its principles:
Reward real-world value creation
Encourage healthy, long-term behavior
Stay deterministic, auditable, and fair
Minimize reliance on central approval
Incentivize sustainable growth of the network
Every DeCharge charger earns in a transparent, rule-based, and geography-aware system. And that makes it possible for real-world infrastructure to grow without needing corporate control.
Ways to Earn DeCharge Points in DeCharge Ecosystem
The community’s support is quantified through DeCharge Points, which are awarded for various activities, including owning a device, contributing to growth, engaging on social media, and participating in campaigns. Below are the key ways to earn DeCharge Points:
Owning a DeCharge Device: Owning a Beast or Mini charger makes you eligible to earn base and consumption rewards in DeCharge Points on a daily basis.
Participating in Quests: By participating in the native quest platform on the DeCharge website and supporting DeCharge in various ways, individuals can earn DeCharge Points.
Participating in DeCharge Points Program: The DeCharge Points Program is a newly launched initiative introduced during our recent community call. It highlights specific tasks for the community to complete in order to earn points.
Activities like Spin App: We created a fun and engaging DeCharge Points earning app at https://fun.decharge.network.
Being Ambassador: Being a DeCharge's advocate will also makes you eligible to earn the DeCharge Points in addition to other perks. Check out our discord for more details on the program.
Be an active contributor in the DeCharge ecosystem by opting your favourite contribution is going to be a recognition of your activities through the DeCharge Points. The more you stack, the more Chargooor you are in making.
