How to Earn Points

You can gather membership points through three main activities:

Staking - Earn points for staking ETH (eETH/weeth, weehts and weethk), BTC (eBTC), USD (eUSD, frxUSD), ETHFI or beHYPE
Liquid Vaults - Points for holding and using Liquid
Using your Cash Card - Points for transactions with your Ether.fi Cash card

How the Point System Works, Monthly Reset and Tier Updates

Points reset every calendar month - Your points balance resets at the beginning of each month, and you start earning points from zero again.
Immediate tier upgrades - As soon as you earn enough points for a higher tier, or hold the required amount of staked ETHFI, your membership tier is upgraded automatically. If your tier does not update after meeting the requirements, please contact our support team and we'll be happy to review it for you.
Tier maintenance is required - Meeting the required point threshold this month secures your membership tier for the next month. Since points reset at the start of every calendar month, you must continue meeting the required threshold each month to maintain your desired tier.
Tier downgrades - If you do not meet the required points threshold by the end of the month, your tier will be adjusted for the following month. For example, if you are on Luxe tier and do not earn enough points to maintain Luxe status, your tier will be downgraded at the end of the month, and you will begin the next month at the applicable tier level (Core).

Membership and other rewards

Having an ether.fi membership gives you access to events and campaigns that may offer multiple rewards.

Membership does not guarantee rewards by default. Instead, it allows you to participate in eligible events where rewards can be earned based on defined rules.

Depending on the campaign, events may generate different types of rewards, including:

Tokens
Cashback bonuses
Points multipliers
Partner or promotional rewards

Each event has its own:

Eligibility requirements
Reward structure
Duration and limits

Rewards are only distributed when an event is active and announced. Participating in one event does not guarantee rewards in future events.

Your membership tier and activity may affect eligibility or reward size, depending on the specific campaign rules.

Details for all active and upcoming events and campaigns are published on the official ether.fi Events page: https://etherfi.gitbook.io/etherfi/events

How to link External Wallets (EOAs)

When you link an external wallet to your Ether.fi account:

Immediate point assignment - all eligible points from your linked wallet are instantly added to your membership account
Historical activity counts - previous staking and liquid token activity is recognized such as ETHFI staking

How to Link a Wallet

Click on the Account Icon on either mobile or web, and select "Manage Linked Wallets."
You’ll see two options:
- "Connect Another Wallet" – use this if you want to connect a new wallet
- "Link a Wallet" – use this if you're already connected with the wallet you want to link
To connect a new wallet:
- Make sure to connect your desired external wallet using WalletConnect or your browser wallet (like Rabby Wallet, Binance Wallet or MetaMask).
- Once connected, click "Sign to Authenticate" to confirm and link your wallet.
If you’ve already selected your wallet, you can skip the “Connect Another Wallet” step and proceed directly to linking.
Once your wallet is linked, all eligible past and future activity from that wallet will count toward your membership points.

Tier changes and physical cards

Cards issued will always work - your physical card continues functioning regardless of tier changes, it will just self adjust to the current tier.
Benefits adjust automatically - cashback percentages and other perks update to match your current tier
No card replacement needed - upgrades and downgrades happen seamlessly. You don't need to change your card to obtain tiered benefits.
