What is Belong (LONG)?

Belong (LONG) is building the IRL pay-per-visit affiliate system for physical venues – Belong CheckIn, connecting real-world engagement directly to on-chain identity and tokenized rewards. The system enables businesses and creators to measure visits, reward loyalty, and attribute revenue across the digital–physical divide.

Belong is a platform that connects real-world locations and digital services with the blockchain. It enables brands to interact with audiences through tokens, communities to manage membership and access, and users to complete tasks and earn rewards.

The platform supports multiple blockchains, offers gasless transactions, and integrates with payment systems such as Apple Pay and Google Pay. Belong also allows the creation of NFT or SBT passes, access control, and royalty collection on secondary sales.

Belong provides the tools to integrate token-gated access, NFT-based permissions, and event experiences into your application using simple APIs, SDKs, and AI-ready interfaces.

What is Belong (LONG)?

Belong CheckIn is a wallet-optional rewards layer that connects real-world activity to verifiable on-chain rewards. You earn every time you show up, check in, and enjoy what venues offer — no crypto expertise needed.

Belong CheckIn is a simple, transparent system that rewards real visits to real venues. It’s built to make the discovery experience fun, rewarding, and fair — both for you and for the venues you support.

• Wallet-optional: You can earn and redeem rewards without needing a crypto wallet.
• Transparent: Every reward is verifiable on-chain through our proof-of-check-in system.
• Instant: Rewards appear right after your verified visit.
• Private: We use minimal data, encrypt everything, and never sell your information.

What You Earn:

1. Check-in Bonus – a fixed LONG or credit reward for verified attendance.
2. Venue Perk – a benefit the venue chooses (e.g., discount, free drink, or priority access).
3. Spend Reward – a variable percentage based on your actual bill amount, configured by the venue.

Your total reward depends on the venue’s configuration and whether a promoter referred you.

How It Works:

1. Find a Venue: Open the app or scan a promoter’s QR code to view participating venues. Each listing shows what you’ll earn for visiting — your check-in bonus, spend percentage, and any extra perks.
2. Check In: When you arrive, tap “Check In” or scan the QR/NFC tag at the venue entrance. The app verifies your location and creates a temporary on-chain proof of visit.
3. Enjoy and Pay: Eat, drink, or experience the venue as usual. Pay however you like — cash, card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or LONG tokens (where available).
4. Verification and Reward: The system confirms your visit through the venue’s POS data or receipt confirmation. Once verified, your rewards (check-in bonus + spend reward) appear instantly in your balance.

Dual Path Reward Model:

• Direct Discovery: You receive the full check-in bonus, venue perk, and spend reward defined by the venue. The venue covers 100% of the reward cost.
• Promoter-Linked Visit: You receive the standard customer share (typically 70–80% of the venue’s configured reward budget). The promoter receives a separate commission (typically 20–30%) from the same campaign budget. The venue’s total marketing cost stays constant.

Example: Venue allocates $10 reward budget per verified visit.

• Direct customer = $10.
• Promoter referral = $8 to customer + $2 to promoter.

Visits made via community referral links may unlock exclusive perks, faster reward verification, and access to special promotions. These incentives are provided by the platform or venues as part of Belong’s engagement program — they do not affect token value or total venue costs.

Paying With LONG (Optional): Some venues accept LONG tokens as payment — offering you extra value for doing so.

• Instant settlement: No waiting for card processors.
• Lower fees for venues: Helps them offer better perks and higher rewards.
• 3% instant discount: Most venues offer a direct discount when you pay in LONG.
• Circular economy: LONG can be spent, staked for access perks, or redeemed.

Your transaction is processed automatically by smart contracts. These conversions are programmatic operations, not speculative trades or buybacks.

Redeeming and Using Rewards: You can redeem your LONG or credits in three simple ways:

1. Instant USDC Conversion – convert LONG to USDC at the current rate and withdraw to your bank or card via supported partners.
2. Spend LONG – use LONG directly at participating venues for future check-ins and perks.
3. Stake LONG – unlock additional benefits such as loyalty multipliers, faster verification, and premium event access.
