Pal Points™
The Pal Points™ reward system rolled out a few weeks ago.
Since launch, the Pals have completed over 1,000 quests and collected nearly one million Pal Points. We’re still working out some kinks to improve the redemption process, so please bear with us.
Overall, we’ve been happy with the points system. More quests are coming soon! If you have questions or ideas regarding Pal Points™, please get in touch.
Praise Media™ is a Wholistic Marketing Agency for Web3 Projects and Brands
Prior to focusing on Praise, we operated LaunchTeam, a boutique marketing agency. Since 2016, we’ve helped 50+ companies go to market in the blockchain space — and those companies have raised $500M+. We also incubated Praise. LaunchTeam is now merging with Praise to power the media pillar of our business.
Praise Media brings us a new revenue stream, and will strengthen Praise as a valued growth partner in Web3. The agency will run our events, create content, organize giveaways, and consult with clients to execute major launch campaigns.

His notable shoots include celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio, Zendaya, and the Kardashians; magazine covers for Vogue and Vanity Fair; and TV commercial campaigns for clients like Mercedes Benz, Warner Brothers, J.Crew, and many more.

Award Pool helps brands and creators gamify their marketing campaigns with custom tasks to build, engage, and monetize their communities. Fans can participate in challenges, earn points, and redeem NFT-based rewards through a custom-designed white-label widget. We love this solution.
