October Room RewardsNo spooky changes this month - you can expect the same metrics + rewards as September! Be prepared for some potential big changes to the program in the coming months, though, and we'll do our best to communicate them to you early and often (starting today).Want to know when reward boxes are arriving? Scroll down to the FAQ for more info. Plus, keep reading to learn about a new feature coming to the Room Rewards Creator Hub page.
What's New(ish)?A change is coming to the Room Rewards page on Creator Hub! Soon there will be a new tab that displays a summary of your Room's results from the most recent month of Room Rewards.This means you'll be able to see the final number of users across all metrics and what Tier you reached, anytime you want! Just to clarify, this is only for the previous month and for C Tier and higher. For example, in December, you'll see your final results for November Room Rewards, and in January, you'll see the final results for December. If any of your Rooms didn't reach at least C Tier, they won't show up on the Summary tab.This was on oversight on our part that we're working on fixing thanks to feedback you all submitted in surveys and support tickets. Let us know how you like this feature and keep suggesting things so we can make improvements like this one!
What's the same?
  • The Rooms 2.0 Hoodie and additional tokens are still available to earn for the Rooms 2.0 Bonus metrics, and Seller Swag bubbly can still be earned for the Commerce metric. See the program details page to learn more.
  • Metrics remain the same as they were in September:
    • Engagement: a user must spend 120 minutes or more in a Room during the month

FAQQ: When will Reward boxes be sent out for September?
A: Boxes are planned to go out no later than October 4th. If there are no issues with the final results for the month (ex: investigations for exploitative behavior), they could be sent as soon as October 2nd. Please ensure you have your desired Earnings Distribution settings by the end of September. We'll update on the Creator Hub Discord if anything changes.
Q: What do you mean by "big changes to the program"?
A: We don't have anything ready to share yet, but it could mean significant restructuring of the metrics and reward system.
Q: How do I participate in future Room Rewards surveys?
A: You can join our Research Lab to be notified as soon as a survey is available! Also keep an eye out for any in-game announcements. In most surveys, you must have a Room that qualified for rewards.
Q: I really want the Seller Swag Bubbly! How do I make sure I get it?
A: Your Room must reach B Tier on the Commerce metric and you must be an Owner, Co-owner, or Contributor of that Room with Earnings Distribution. You must have a percent of earnings distributed to you to be eligible, you will not receive the item for just being an owner or contributor.
Q: I've never heard of the Seller Swag Bubbly. What is it?
A: It's an exclusive bubbly that's usually only rewarded for selling content in Rec Room. The last time we gave it out was over a year ago in January 2023 for a Custom Shirt Sellathon.
Q: Are the Tokens stackable from each Tier?
A: No. Rooms must meet the minimum Tier threshold to unlock the reward. That means the tokens per user is calculated at which ever Tier your Room makes it to. The max is 200 per eligible user for S Tier Bonus Rooms 2.0 - Engagement Rooms and 2500 per eligible user for S Tier Bonus Rooms 2.0 Commerce Rooms.
Q: I really want the Rooms 2.0 Hoodie! How do I make sure I get it?
A: Your Room must reach C Tier on any of the Bonus metrics and you must be an Owner, Co-owner, or Contributor of that Room with Earnings Distribution. You must have a percent of earnings distributed to you to be eligible, you will not receive the item for just being an owner or contributor.
Q: Is the Rooms 2.0 Hoodie only available for C Tier or will the higher Tiers also get the hoodie?
A: C Tier and higher will get the hoodie.
Q: How long is the Rooms 2.0 Hoodie available?
A: The Rooms 2.0 Hoodie is planned until Rooms 2.0 enters Beta. We're not sure when exactly this will be, so get it while you can! We'll update you if this changes.
Q: Is the Rooms 2.0 Hat available?
A: Not through Room Rewards. Please see the Rooms 2.0 Incentives page for the most up-to-date information.
