Read & Reap
You value knowledge—we value you. Every book you read earns you Waisa Points. These points unlock real benefits: borrow extra books, renew your membership, skip waitlists, vote on library decisions, shop our collection at discounts and much more.
As Waisa grows, your points could evolve into something bigger—tradable tokens, ownership stakes, and opportunities we’re just beginning to imagine. Because honestly? Your love for reading deserves way more than just a bookmark. It deserves rewards that grow with you.

Points FAQs
Can I really get free memberships with points?
Yes! Accumulate enough points and redeem them to renew your subscription without paying cash. Read more, pay less. It’s that simple.
What's the fastest way to earn points?
Join early and read more! Pages are your primary point source. But you can boost earnings with our multipliers: take goo care of the books and choose higher membership tiers (Prime or Plus) for better rates.
Can I lose points?
Only if books are returned in significantly worse condition than received. Normal wear never costs you points. Taking reasonable care means you’ll always earn, never lose.
Are there any limits to what I can do with my points?
Hardly any! Use them to borrow extra books, renew membership, get priority access, skip waitlists, and shop our store at a discount. We’re constantly adding new redemption options based on what members want—your points will only get more valuable.
Can I transfer points to another member?
Not currently, but we’re exploring gifting and transfer features for the future. For now, points are personal rewards for your reading journey.
How do I track my points and rank?
Your dashboard shows everything: current balance, earning history, leaderboard rank, badges earned, and how close you are to your next milestone. It’s all transparent and real-time.
Can points be converted to cash?
No, points aren’t currency—they’re rewards within the Waisa ecosystem. But they have real value: free memberships, extra books, shop discounts, and future opportunities like tokens and ownership stakes.
