The site provides cash rewards to authors and editors of answers via a point system. 30 points are awarded to authors of answers for every 1000 times a user views their answer, and points can be converted into real currency after five working days given that 150 points have been accrued on author’s account.

Views on answers with pending feedback reports will cease to yield points for the author until the information has been corrected.
If a question is missing an answer, users can press the “Get an answer to the question” button and enter an email address to be notified when the question has been answered. Alternatively, registered users can select the “Get points for answers” button and author the answer themselves.
