What is an Earner?
An Earner is anyone who earns points in your system - a child, student, team member, or even yourself for personal habit tracking. Each earner has their own point balance, tasks, and can redeem rewards independently.
Earner Examples by Profile Type:
- 👨👩👧👦 Family: Each child is an earner
- 🏫 Classroom: Each student is an earner
- ⚽ Sports: Each player or the whole team can be earners
- 🎯 Personal: You are the earner tracking your own habits
How Earners Look on the Dashboard
Each earner gets their own card on the dashboard showing their points, tasks, and rewards:

🏆 Badges

Task Suggestions Modal
When you add an earner with an age selected, you will see a modal with suggested tasks:
Key Points:

Enabling & Disabling Earners
Instead of deleting earners, you can disable them to hide them from the dashboard while preserving their data.
Why Disable Instead of Delete?
- Preserves all point history and redemption records
- Earner can be re-enabled later if needed
- Useful for seasonal participants (summer camp, sports season)
- Frees up an earner slot without losing data
How to Disable
Click the pause button next to the earner in Settings. They will be moved to the "Disabled Earners" section.
How to Re-Enable
Find the earner in the "Disabled Earners" section and click "Enable". Note: You must have an available earner slot.
⚠️ Plan Limits: If you are at your earner limit, you will need to disable another earner or upgrade your plan before re-enabling.
Deleting an Earner
Deleting an earner permanently removes them and all their data (points, history, redemptions). This cannot be undone.
💡 Recommendation: Consider disabling instead of deleting. You can always delete later, but you cannot recover deleted data.
