Frequently Asked Questions

Bluetick is a community-powered ranking platform. Members vote for the candidates they think deserve to rank — in Music, Movies, Sports, Finance, Countries, and more — and the community vote decides each Top 100. Bluetick does not editorially pick winners.

Yes — core features are free. Premium features such as advanced analytics and an ad-free experience are available with a premium subscription.

Candidates are ordered by the community votes they receive inside an open voting period, and vote share shows a candidate's share of all valid votes. Positions change as people vote, and movement is always read from stored historical snapshots. Factual information about an entity comes from external sources and never affects its rank. Full detail lives on the methodology page.

One verified user can cast one vote per candidate per voting period, and duplicates are rejected. Automated or manipulated voting is prohibited and may lead to account suspension.

Rankings move as votes come in during the voting period, with daily snapshots recording each position. When a period closes the ranking is frozen and preserved as a final historical record — see final rankings.

Each ranking runs on a voting period (monthly by default). Votes only count inside the open period, and when it closes the resulting ranking is preserved rather than overwritten. Periods closing soon are listed here.

XP (experience points) rewards genuine participation — casting votes, commenting, saving and sharing rankings, following members, completing missions, and other community actions. XP recognises activity only: it never changes your voting power or any candidate's position in a ranking.

As your XP grows you advance through named levels. Your current level, name, and progress to the next level are shown on your gamification dashboard, along with your weekly XP and streak.

Badges recognise milestones such as your first vote, reaching vote totals, exploring categories, or keeping a streak alive — you can see them on your profile's Badges tab and on your dashboard. A streak counts consecutive days of genuine activity, with bonus XP awarded at milestones like 3, 7, 14, and 30 days. Badges and streaks are decorative achievements; they carry no special privileges in rankings or voting.

Missions are daily and weekly goals — for example voting in a few rankings or casting a set number of votes — that reset on their own period. Completing one credits a one-time XP bonus to your ledger. Today's missions and your progress appear on the gamification dashboard.

The public community leaderboard ranks members by XP — and can be sorted by streak or badges — and shows your own rank when you're signed in. Your private analytics page breaks down your XP by source, your last 14 days of XP, community totals (followers, topic views, shares, comments), mission performance, and recent activity.

No. XP, badges, levels, streaks, and mission rewards have no cash value, cannot be sold, traded, or redeemed, and are not transferable between accounts. Daily limits apply to how much XP certain actions can earn, and rewards obtained through manipulation or automation may be adjusted or removed — see our Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.

The most common reasons are daily XP caps being applied to a new day, a correction or audit of activity that was flagged as manipulation, or an adjustment made by moderators. Your analytics page shows exactly which sources your XP came from. If something looks wrong, contact [email protected].
