Discovery Queue

The discovery queue is how the ReviewBay network stays fair. It surfaces active members to other active members — no credit balances, no caps, no spending. The rule is simple: show up daily, stay visible daily.

How it works

Leave one genuine review for another member each day. That single action keeps you active in the discovery queue for that day, which means other members looking for someone to review back can find you.

Stop showing up, and you drop out of the queue until you're active again. There's nothing to redeem and nothing to lose — just daily reciprocity.

Why we removed credits

The old credit system rewarded hoarding. Members would stockpile balances and disappear, then cash in all at once. That's not what a healthy review network looks like.

Daily activity is honest. It rewards members who are genuinely participating in the network week-over-week, not members who showed up once and left.

What counts as activity

A genuine review for another member business — written by you, based on real knowledge or experience of that business. One per day is enough. More than one is welcome but doesn't compound.

Profile completeness, referrals, and a complete business listing all still help your visibility independently — they make your profile worth recommending — but they don't replace daily activity in the queue.

What this means for you

You don't need to track a balance. You don't need to plan your reviews around a quota. Open ReviewBay, find a business you actually know, leave one honest review, and you're in the queue.

Skip a day? Tomorrow's a fresh slate.
