What you can redeem for

Dashboard · New user

Solid #5d57fb cockpit with iOS-style glass cards (backdrop-filter blur + semi-transparent white border) — the meter, comeback nudge, and progress strip all float on the brand color without competing with it.

Dollar-first progress meter replaces "0 BP" with "$0.00 toward student loans" and a milestone bar to $22.50. Value is legible from the first second.

"Come back Thursday" anchors the user to a future event before they leave — converting first visit to second visit.

One action card, not 329 scholarships. Match quality, time to complete, and win probability in a single glance.

Mobile app CTA framed as "earn more, faster" with the explicit 30–50% stat — a revenue driver, not a banner.

Dashboard · Partially engaged

Specific weekly target: "Earn 200 more BP this week" — not "3,000 to redeem." Makes progress feel achievable, not a treadmill.

Projected pace: "One partner offer today gets you there in 5 days." Gives a concrete shortcut back to momentum.

Partner offer framed as debt payoff: "gets you 45% of the way to redemption" — not an ad. The loan connection is explicit.

3 curated scholarships instead of 329. "View all" is available but deemphasized — best match first, no overwhelm.

Dashboard · Returning user

Near-redemption urgency: "$3.75 away" leads the page. Redemption card dominates when the user is close to cashing out.

Streak + top 12% builds identity and FOMO. "Come back tomorrow" is implicit in the streak count — not stated as a nag.

"New since your last visit" keeps the feed fresh — a reason to return every session, not a static list.

Lifetime redeemed ($45.00) reinforces that Bold has paid real money toward their debt — the core trust anchor for long-term retention.

Rewards page

Balance in dollars first: "0 BP = $0.00 toward student loans" — the equivalence is stated immediately, not buried below the fold.

Glass card holds the progress bar, redeem CTA, and pace projection — all critical actions float together on the solid brand hero.

Redeem options visible from day 1 — not hidden behind a threshold wall. Students know what they're earning toward (loans, tuition, cash) before they earn a single BP.

Merchant earn amounts in dollars (TopResume: $6.00, Verizon: $19.50) — not raw BP. Value of each action is instantly comparable.

"These aren't ads. They're the partners that fund your loans." — transparent framing replaces "Vetted Partner Program."

Scholarships page

Default: Best Match — not "All 329." Curated to 3–5 high-fit cards. The firehose is opt-in via tab, not the default view.

Win probability on every card: "Best match," "Few applicants," "New." Replaces abstract eligibility percentages with legible signals.

"Opening soon" + Remind me gives users a forward anchor — pairs with the dashboard "come back" nudge to drive return visits.

No-essay / essay separation by section divider — quick wins first, investment scholarships below. Reduces cognitive load on every visit.

Profile nudge in context with a specific benefit ("8× more likely to win") — not buried in settings where no one finds it.
