@Yugali @cloud Could you clarify what you mean by "Prize Counter" and the context of the Google Cloud email? Are you referring to a specific Google Cloud notification or reward system? Or do you need help interpreting an email you received from Google Cloud? Let me know so I can assist!

@AmolChaudhari27 the Prize Counter in question is a place (a webpage rather) where people who have participated in the Google Cloud Arcade (part of the Google Cloud Skills Boost) can claim their rewards. You should have a look at the arcade page in order to understand what it is: https://go.cloudskillsboost.google/arcade

The Prize Counter email is the notification email which contains the exclusive link to the Prize Counter. The link is separate for all and only those who have at least reached the minimum milestone can get this mail (provided you have also subscribed to the Arcade and kept your notifications on of your Cloud Skills Boost account from settings).

The Prize Counter is similar to an Amazon shopping system. Participants can add swags (rewards) to their cart and, after providing their address and personal details, place an order.

To order these swags, participants must first earn Arcade Points by completing Arcade Games, Trivia, and other activities during the 6-month-long campaign.

The Arcade campaign runs twice a year, divided into two cohorts:

1. January to June
2. July to December

During each cohort, participants have 6 months to accumulate as many points as possible. These points can only be redeemed when the Prize Counter opens:

• July for the first cohort
• December for the second cohort

When the Prize Counter opens, participants will receive an email from Google Cloud containing a unique link to access it. This link is account-specific and can only be used once to order swags.

The Prize Counter remains open for 5–7 days, and all orders must be placed within this deadline. After the Prize Counter closes, any unused points will be reset to 0, making them non-redeemable.
