Chainers launches UGC Referral Tournament
Chainers has initiated a UGC Referral Tournament to expand its creator community, running from July 23 through August 2. The tournament offers 500 USDT and 5,000 CFB, encouraging creators to bring new players into the game.
Instead of relying on in-game activity, the competition rewards creators for driving sign-ups, establishing a clear incentive structure. The more players a creator brings in, the higher they climb on the leaderboard.
Tournament mechanics
The tournament’s mechanics are straightforward. By sharing referral links, creators gain points based on their referrals, affecting their standings in the prize pool. The pool includes both a stablecoin—500 USDT—and 5,000 CFB, the game’s in-game currency. This arrangement provides creators with external financial rewards and tokens usable within Chainers.
The Chainers Creator Program
The event serves as an on-ramp for prospective creators. Those not yet part of the community can join the Chainers Creator Program to participate in similar events and gain access to exclusive rewards. The focus is on engagement, encouraging players not just to play but to create, lead, and earn.
This strategy aims to transform active players into community leaders while boosting the game’s player base. Detailed entry instructions are available on the game’s program page.
Inside Chainers
Developed by 51 Games, Chainers is a browser-based MMO where players create customizable characters and explore a 3D isometric world. The sandbox-style gameplay emphasizes creativity and collection. Players can easily start by signing up, claiming a free Chainer hero, and accessing a farm starter pack. Daily logins reward players with additional NFTs to enhance their gameplay.
The game operates on the Chainers Chain, a Polygon sidechain designed for Ethereum compatibility. In-game currencies adhere to the ERC-20 standard, while NFTs follow ERC-721, ensuring players retain ownership of their assets. This framework supports a diverse in-game economy involving CFB, POL, and BNB.
The CFB token and reward structure
The current in-game token, CFB, can be earned and spent within the game, but it will eventually transition to a foundational token called CHU, establishing a bridge to the long-term economy. Hence, the 5,000 CFB in the tournament serves a broader purpose within the game’s ecosystem.
This referral event marks a continuation of recent updates for Chainers. The game has enhanced its Reward Pools by introducing a new Tier 4 and significantly increasing payouts for Tier 1. Chainers also rolled out Season Pass V2 with unlimited Infinity levels and collaborated on a leaderboard event with Immutable Play that attracted over 25,000 competitors.
Significance of referral events
For a free-to-play game, using referral events is a cost-effective strategy for growth. By aligning creators’ rewards with player acquisition, Chainers strengthens both its community and economy. The tournament incentivizes both established and new creators to mobilize their networks.
With the tournament officially underway, creators have a limited timeframe to leverage this opportunity, encouraging community engagement and participation in the evolving world of Chainers.
