What are Submit an email tasks?

The Submit an email task allows you to collect verified user emails by requiring participants to submit their email address and confirm it via a one-time code. This ensures that only real users with valid emails can complete the task and earn points. Use Submit an email tasks to:
  • Grow your email list: Capture verified user emails for future marketing or community engagement.
  • Gate access to features: Require email submission before showing high-value tasks or content.
  • Validate users: Add an extra verification step before rewarding points or tokens.
For detailed information about general task settings, including task name, header, description, rewards, dependencies, and more, refer to our Task Settings article.

How it looks to users

Once the task is live, users will see a simple form:
  • A field prompting them to submit their email (with a placeholder such as e.g., me@mail.com)
  • A Submit button (disabled until the user accepts the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy)
  • A required checkbox for legal consent
After submitting their email:
  1. The system sends a one-time code to the provided email address.
  2. The user must enter this code to verify their submission.
  3. Only after entering a valid code is the task marked as complete and points awarded.
This two-step verification ensures higher quality email capture and minimizes fake entries.
