Responsible Participation
For shared opportunity — never guaranteed gain.
Set expectations honestly — participation is for shared opportunity, never a path to guaranteed gain — with support and limits.
Veraq exists for shared opportunity, openly recorded — not for promised gain. Participation runs in waves, and the mechanism that decides each one is published before it runs and provable after. That openness sets expectations honestly: you can see how a wave works, but no wave promises you a particular outcome.
This page describes how Veraq is built to be participated in carefully. It sets out our stance, what we will and will not say about outcomes, the tools and limits available to you, where to find support, and the eligibility we apply. Care is part of the design, not a notice bolted on afterward.
No promised outcomes
An outcome is the recorded result of a wave. It is not a promised return, and it is never described as one. The mechanism is verifiable; the outcome of any single wave is not predetermined for any participant.
We make no promise of a financial result. Some participations produce an outcome and some do not, and a defined share of every outcome flows to verified causes regardless of who took part. Participation is a way to take part in shared opportunity on terms you can check — not a route to a promised result.
Open about the mechanism. Honest about the outcome: no wave is a promise.
How we design for care
Participate within your means
Participation is intended to fit comfortably within what a participant can afford. We design against pressure to commit more, and against framing any wave as something not to be missed.
Plain expectations
Each wave shows how it works before you take part. The mechanism is on the open record, so the terms of participation are legible rather than implied.
No urgency tactics
No countdowns, no streaks, no pressure to return. Calm over loud is a design rule here, not only a tone.
Care built into the mechanism
Limits, eligibility checks and support routes are part of how the system is built, so responsible participation does not depend on a participant reading the fine print.
Tools and limits
- Participation limits
- Controls that let a participant cap how much and how often they take part over a chosen period. Intended to keep participation within means.
- Self-exclusion
- A way to pause or step away from participation for a set period, honoured by the system rather than left to willpower.
- Activity on the open record
- Your own participations are recorded, so you can review what you have taken part in rather than relying on memory.
- Eligibility checks
- Identity and age verification applied before participation, described in plainer terms on the compliance page.
Where to find support
If participation stops feeling like it is within your means, support should be easy to reach. This section will list routes to our participant-support team and to independent organisations that help people who are concerned about their participation, including those a participant can contact without going through Veraq.
The specific organisations, regions and contact details are being finalised so that what we list is accurate for the places Veraq serves. Until then, the Contact page routes a care or support enquiry to the right team.
Age and eligibility
Participation is limited to people who meet the minimum age and eligibility rules for their jurisdiction, confirmed through the identity and eligibility checks above. Veraq does not knowingly allow participation by anyone below the applicable minimum age.
Exact age thresholds and availability vary by jurisdiction and are set out alongside the compliance and terms documents rather than asserted here, so that the binding rules and the plain-language summary never drift apart.
On the status of this document
This page is a plain-language summary of how Veraq approaches responsible participation. It is written to be read, not to bind. The binding text — the limits we are obliged to offer, the eligibility rules, and the support commitments — is being drafted and reviewed with legal counsel and is not yet final.
Where this summary and the final reviewed documents differ, the reviewed documents govern. We would rather state the structure honestly now than publish specific commitments, dates or jurisdictions before they are settled. Care is built into how the system works, not asked of you after the fact.
