How Points Work
Understanding the ChoreSplit point system
Points are the core currency in ChoreSplit. Earn them by completing tasks, spend them on rewards.
Earning Points
- Complete a task — Earn the task's point value
- Maintain streaks — Bonus points for consecutive days
- Achievements — One-time bonus points for milestones
Point Values
Tasks have different point values based on difficulty:
| Task Type | Suggested Points |
|---|---|
| Quick & Easy | 5-10 points |
| Medium Effort | 10-20 points |
| Time-Consuming | 20-50 points |
| Major Chores | 50+ points |
Spending Points
Points can be redeemed for family rewards:
- Small rewards: 50-100 points
- Medium rewards: 100-300 points
- Big rewards: 300+ points
Point Balance
Your point balance shows:
- Total earned: All points ever earned
- Available: Points you can spend now
- Spent: Points used on rewards
Tips
- Points never expire
- Parents set point values when creating tasks
- Bonus points from streaks add up fast!
For Parents
Adjust point values to match your family's economy. If rewards are being earned too fast or slow, tweak task points accordingly.
