# Activations (Actions & Rewards)

Each Activation is a programmable pair that defines:

* What users need to do (**Actions**)
* What they'll earn for doing it (**Rewards**)

## Activation Structure

When creating an Activation you'll configure three key components:

### 1. Activation Details

* Title and description
* Duration and scheduling
* Visual assets

### 2. Actions

Actions are verifiable steps users must complete. You can choose from a library actions, in categories including:

* **User Identity** - Verify user credentials, proof of humanity and social connections
* **Onchain** - Validate user onchain actions and holdings (no code required)
* **Knowledge & Feedback** - Educate users and collect insights via Quizzes and Polls
* **Social Engagement** - Drive community participation
* **Custom Integrations** - General purpose actions to connect/verify any external system

No code is required to configure any actions, including the verification of onchain actions.

See the Action Types Reference for a full guide.
