What it does
We want people to be rewarded for doing what they love. Often times that's just sitting back and playing video games. So we figured why not find a way for people to earn currency and rewards for doing exactly that? For every hour you play you get paid.
Airmiles for gamers. Sign in with Steam, play whatever you already play, and every hour becomes Credits you spend on brand ladders: real discounts and freebies from 200+ brands. Free. We never sell your data.
Airlines reward you for hours in the air. Gamerperks rewards you for hours in the game. Sign in with Steam, play anything you already own, and every hour becomes a Credit. Spend Credits on brand ladders : real discounts and freebies that get better with every tier you climb, like status on an airline but per brand. Steam sign-in reads your public playtime only. We never sell your data, never post as you, never touch your wallet. How we make money Three steps. No app to install, no purchase to make, no game to switch to. One click. We read your public playtime and match ladders to the games you actually play, not a broadcast list. Every hour of playtime is one Credit, claimed on a weekly…from gamerperks.com
