YieldFi Points
This page is specific to the ongoing Points Program
YieldFi Points
YieldFi Points are earned through on-chain activity and community participation within the YieldFi ecosystem. These points will form the foundation for current and future rewards, multipliers, and community benefits.
YieldFi Points are distributed across multiple Seasons
Seasons
Season 1 (LIVE)
Season 1 rewards early participants who actively contribute to the YieldFi ecosystem through minting, staking, lending, LPing, and engaging with partner protocols.
Duration: Ongoing
Key Focus: On-chain activities and marketing campaigns
Season 1 sets the foundation for future reward programs. Your points earned in this season may carry forward benefits.
How Points Are Earned
Points can be earned through various activities:
Minting & Holding yUSD or vyUSD
Supplying borrow assets to lending markets
Buying or LPing Yield Tokens (YT) on Pendle, Spectra, Napier
Referral program
Participating in quests, campaigns, and social engagement
Each activity earns a base points payout, with additional multipliers applied where relevant.
You can track all eligible activities and strategies on the DeFi Dashboard.
1. DeFi Ecosystem Participation
Users earn points by minting and using YieldFi products such as yUSD and vyUSD, and by deploying them across integrated DeFi platforms.
Check the DeFi Dashboard to see the full list of active strategies and associated point rewards.
Only active strategies are eligible. Deprecated strategies are excluded from points accrual.
2. Campaigns
YieldFi periodically runs short-term campaigns where users can complete specific actions to earn bonus points.
Stay tuned to our Telegram and Twitter for live campaign announcements.
3. Community Support
Users who actively support the YieldFi community through meaningful engagement (e.g., Discord activity, Twitter posts, quest completions) can earn points at the team’s discretion.
4. Referrals
Earn additional points by referring new users.
You receive 10% of the points earned by the person you referred.
These are bonus points — your referral does not lose any of their points.
Referral codes must be applied before a wallet mints yUSD or vyUSD. Codes are permanent once applied.
Generate and manage your referral code in the Referral page.
Multipliers
Each activity using a whitelisted asset has an associated multiplier. Multipliers define how many points you earn per day.
