Reward real users through the Houseyou set the reward, we route it
For founders. Reward campaigns reach people who actually used Grass, verified by what they did in the House, not bots or wallets farmed by scripts. You set the reward and who it is for. The House never promises users a reward; it only routes yours to the people who earned it.
