About Membership

What constitutes an Invited Member?

An Invited Member is a wallet that has redeemed an Invite Code and paid the Geist membership dues.

Is Geist membership permanent?

No, Membership is not permanent. It must be renewed once the membership period expires.

Is there a free trial?

Yes, every user that redeems an Invite Code will get a free 7-day trial of Geist Membership. After the trial period is up, the user may opt to pay the Membership dues and become a full Member, or let the membership expire.

How many Invite Codes will there be?

There is no maximum number of Invite Codes, but initially they will be relatively scarce, to prevent unbounded multi-accounting.

How do I get an Invite Code?

From a Holder

Initially, Invite Codes will be airdropped to Aavegotchi NFT holders, at a rate of 1 Aavegotchi = 1 Invite code. This airdrop may become recurring, but initially it will be a one-time event.

Before the airdrop, we will announce a Snapshot in the official Aavegotchi Discord and on the @aavegotchi and @geistnetwork X accounts.

If you do not hold an Aavegotchi, you are welcome to join the Aavegotchi Discord and connect with individuals who may be willing to share their extra codes.

By Applying

A limited number of Invites will be given to users with good onchain history. To apply for an Invite, visit the Geist website, submit your email and wallet address, and mint the commemorative “Members Only” NFT on either Base or Arbitrum (or both, if you are really serious).

What benefits will Members have?

While anyone can transact and play games on Geist, only Members will be able to access the rewards programs associated with each game.

Reward programs include airdrop campaigns, giveaway, and exclusive content.

Stay tuned for more information on these campaigns.

I have Aavegotchi NFTs. Do I need to pay to become a Geist Member?
