You’ve probably seen a few of these boxes popping up from time to time. It might be that you already have a sizeable number of Escudos in your “Mealheiro”. But what exactly triggers the earning of Escudos and how can you spend them?


Spending

At the moment, you can spend your hard-earned Escudos to gain entrance to:

  • “buy” items in the “Mercearia (once you unlock that section of the site). Things like extra exercise modules and Vocabulary Sets.
  • request homework corrections. This can be done directly from the Builders after submitting your work, or from the forum by navigating to your post.

Earning

  • Daily Login to site  5$
  • Comment in a post (outside forums)    10$
  • Starting a Forum Topic    40$
  • Replying in a Forum Topic    10$
  • Uploading a new Avatar (once per month)    30$
  • Uploading a new Cover Image (once per month)    5$
  • Passing a Quiz    10$
  • Passing a Quiz with at least 85% grade    40$
  • Completing a Consolidation Item    50$
  • Completing a Chapter    50$

Other actions on the site would allow you to earn more Escudos, but we'll tell you more about it when the time is right. :)

Alternatively, you can also buy "bags of escudos" for a nominal fee. You can find out the pricing here.
