1. What Suede Quests is

You are a Suede ambassador. The work you complete is tracked as quests.

Suede Quests pays verified people to publish original, disclosed X posts for the campaign sponsor named in the brief. Sometimes that sponsor is Suede. Sometimes it is another approved project, artist, launch partner, or sponsor. You connect X, link a payout wallet, claim a quest, post during the active window, submit the link, and verification decides whether it becomes claimable.

This is peer-to-peer marketing done in the open. It is not engagement farming, bot spam, or anonymous shilling. The bar is real posts from real people who can talk honestly about the paying campaign.

2. Who can join

You must:

  • Have an established X account that passes the current campaign eligibility gate.
  • Use the same real account consistently. Handles can change, but the permanent account ID is what matters.
  • Connect that X account to Suede Quests. We bind to your account's permanent ID, not your handle.
  • Link and verify a payout wallet from that connected X account. The wallet and X identity have to belong to the same person.
  • Accept the Ambassador Agreement.

One person, one identity. See Section 8.

3. How a quest works

01

Claim a slot

Open the Quest Board. Live quests show the target, reward, active window, and brief. Claiming a slot starts your clock.

02

Post original work

Publish on X during the active window. Include the disclosure and whatever the brief asks for.

03

Submit the link

We verify that you authored it, posted it in the window, included the disclosure, that it is original, and that it stays live.

04

Clear verification

If it passes, it counts as one successful quest.

Quests run on staggered windows, not synchronized drops. You post on your own clock. There is no "everyone post the same thing right now" moment, ever. That protects your account and ours.

4. Quest conduct, what not to do

A quest is coordinated distribution, not permission to spam. The goal is useful public attention from real accounts. These rules apply to every reply, quote, repost, comment, and campaign link.

  • Do not paste the same link or phrase into comment sections over and over. One repeated link across many replies reads as spam and can disqualify you.
  • Do not flood one target post with multiple replies from the same account. If you have a second thought, make it meaningful or skip it.
  • Do not reply under unrelated threads just to push a campaign link. Stay where the brief says to post, or where the topic naturally fits.
  • Do not mass-tag random people, founders, influencers, investors, creators, or Suede team members to force attention.
  • Do not harass, insult, threaten, brigade, or dogpile people. Push the campaign, not abuse.
  • Do not use bots, reply automation, engagement pods, bought likes, bought views, or coordinated fake accounts.
  • Do not copy another ambassador's post, lightly rewrite it, or use a template that makes many accounts sound identical.
  • Do not hide that you are being rewarded. If the brief is sponsored, disclose it clearly in the post text.
  • Do not delete and repost to farm another claim, reset metrics, dodge a rejection, or make the same work look new.
  • Do not evade platform limits, blocks, mutes, rate limits, or moderation decisions.

Good quest work looks like a real person adding context, commentary, a useful clip, a relevant reply, or a clear callout. Bad quest work looks like link spam. Link spam does not get paid.

5. Disclosure, required every time

Every paid post must clearly say it is a paid partnership. This is the law, and it protects you. It does not have to look like an ad. Plain language is perfect:

  • "Paid partner of @[sponsor]"
  • "Working with @[sponsor]"
  • "Partnered with [sponsor]"

Put it where people will actually see it, in the post text, not buried. A post without a clear disclosure does not count and is not paid. Removing the disclosure after posting forfeits the quest.

6. The bar, how posts are graded

We grade every post. To count, a post must be:

A

Original

Your own words and angle. Not copied, not spun, not a near-duplicate of another post, yours or anyone else's.

B

On topic

Actually about the campaign sponsor, target, and brief.

C

Real quality

A human wrote this and meant it.

Use image or video when the brief calls for it, and keep your work from becoming text-only over time.

No em-dashes and no obvious AI tells. Posts that read as AI-generated are rejected outright, and a pattern of it is a disqualification.

Low-effort, spammy, or egregious posts are rejected. Repeat offenders are disqualified.

7. Payouts

State What happens
Verified Successful quests become eligible for USDC payouts after verification.
Bound Your verified payout wallet is linked to your connected X account. That binding is how claimable rewards are released.
Claimable When claim windows are open, you claim eligible USDC yourself, including daily claim cycles when campaigns enable them.
Held Rewards unlock after a short hold, because posts have to stay live first. There is a normal delay between earning and withdrawal. That is by design.
  • No chasing staff, no waiting for a one-off manual send, and no extra conversation beyond doing the work correctly.
  • Your post must stay live through the hold period. Delete it early and you forfeit it, and see Section 8.

Live withdrawals switch on once payouts are funded, connected, and explicitly enabled. Until then you can earn and stack successful quests; verified rewards stay recorded.

8. Disqualification, the hard rules

Some things end your participation. These are permanent and they follow you to any future or linked account.

Permanent disqualification, including any future or sybilled accounts:

  • Deleting a counted post. Deletions are a permanent disqualification from future campaigns.
  • Operating more than one identity. One person, one account. Any duplicate, alt, or coordinated cluster is disqualified permanently, and so is every account tied to it.
  • A pattern of AI-generated or templated posts after warning.

Disqualification also applies for comment spam, repeated link dumping, mass tagging, platform-rule evasion, posting excessively for other projects in a way that reads as paid shilling, a compromised or hijacked account, faking or buying engagement, or gaming verification.

We detect duplicate identities through several independent signals. Households and shared networks are fine. Coordinated multi-account farming is not.

9. Support and tickets

We can support a large ambassador network only by keeping support narrow and automated.

  • Tickets are only for something broken on our end: a withdrawal that should be available and is not, verification stuck, a wallet that will not save, or a technical error.
  • Open a ticket through the ticket button in Discord or the support form. One open ticket at a time.
  • Tickets are answered in reasonable time. Filing more tickets does not make it faster and will not help.
  • Do not DM or tag Suede team members. Ever. Tickets are the channel. Reaching out directly does not speed anything up and may pause your account.
  • Disagree with a rejection? That is an appeal, not a ticket. Use the appeal link on the rejected quest.

10. The agreement

You take part as an independent contractor, not an employee. The grading, forfeiture, and disqualification rules above are terms, not suggestions. The full terms are in the Ambassador Agreement you accept when you connect.
