Spending Gems in the Vault Store

Gems are the currency you spend, and the Vault Store is where you spend them. Open The Quest and pick the Store tab. Your Vault and the Vault Store live on one page.

Your Vault, up top

The top of the page is your Vault at a glance: your spendable Gem balance, your season Zaps and streak, your Amplitude (your lifetime total; it never resets), anything you've got equipped, and a link to the full earning log (more on that below). What's free vs. member is covered in Membership & the Vault.

What's for sale

• Profile cosmetics. Borders and flair icons that dress up your profile.
• Custom titles. A special title displayed on your profile.
• Collectible badges. Exclusive badges for your collection.
• Membership credits. Redeem Gems for free membership months.

How redeeming works

• Your balance is everything you've ever earned minus what you've spent. Gems never reset, so the wallet only grows between purchases.
• Hit Redeem on an item you can afford. Cosmetics and titles apply to your profile right away, and you can own each one only once.
• Some items are limited stock: the card shows how many are left, and when they're gone, they're gone.
• Some items are season exclusives: they stop selling when the season closes, and a few retire on a set date. If you want one, don't sit on it.
• A few items ask for a rank first (the Founders' Table seat needs Conduit or above). Earn the rank, then redeem.
• Can't afford something yet? The button tells you exactly how many Gems you're short. No surprises.

Anyone can browse the whole store; spending is the membership benefit. During the beta everything is open to everyone.

"How you earned": your ledger

From the Vault (or by tapping your Gem balance), open How you earned: a running log of every Gem and Zap you've banked, grouped by day, each entry labeled with what earned it and when. Above the timeline sit your four weekly rhythms (attendance, posting, hosting, and activity) with your current and best runs.

The rule that organizes it all: online care earns Gems, real-world showing up earns Zaps (see Zaps & Gems). If a number on your profile ever surprises you, the ledger is where the answer lives.
