Dot will show you around. Just click the sections — happy learning!

Welcome to wikey.cc — the Intermedial Messaging Service where your ideas, offers and requests ripen into real value. This guide explains every tool step by step, from your first spread all the way to successful trades on the marketplace.

🍎 The Apple Principle — Why all of this makes sense

A teacher teaches 5 students. He distributes his spread — a flyer with NFC & QR. Every interaction generates EVE. With 20 EVE he receives 6 real apples from the gardener through a voluntary in-platform exchange. EVE remain no-cash-value points.

Value = Lived Life + Shared Experience + Common Benefit

This is the self-creation right of value — and you are at the centre of it.

🌱 Create your first spread

A Spread is your multimedia message to the world — a tiny landing page for your idea.

Click + New Spread in the top bar.
Choose a strong title and write an inspiring description.
Upload images (PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP — max 16 MB).
Optionally link a YouTube video, an audio file, or any external URL.
Save — done. Your spread instantly gets its own page and a short URL like /s/xy23ab/your-title.

💡 Tip: The clearer your spread, the more scans and EVE you'll earn. Keep titles short and descriptions punchy.

⚡ EVE & how to earn

EVE is the digital energy of your wikey account — an in-app reward for real community engagement. EVE has no monetary value, cannot be traded, transferred or redeemed outside wikey, and serves as an in-platform exchange point in the marketplace.

👁 Scan of your spread	+10 EVE
👍 Vote for your spread	+5 EVE
💬 Write a comment	+3 EVE
🔁 Share a spread	+2 EVE
❤ Receive a like	+1 EVE
🎁 Welcome bonus	+20 EVE

The table shows gross rewards. While the Futability Fund is active, 2.0% is deducted as a community contribution; fractions accumulate fairly for each member. Your wallet shows gross, contribution and net credit.

✦ What is the EVE Futability Fund?

The EVE Futability Fund is a closed-loop, transparent community pool inside wikey. It is not an external financial product: EVE retains no cash value, fiat peg, blockchain or redemption outside the platform.

Swaps: On transfers and market purchases, the sender or buyer pays an additional 3.0% swap levy.
Rewards: While the Fund is active, 2.0% of every positive platform reward moves from the gross reward into the Fund.
Small amounts: Fractions accumulate exactly per member until they form one whole EVE.
Impact: The pool enables equal periodic grants for eligible members and transparent allocations to projects.

Current status: active. View the Fund balance, rules and statements →

📡 Flyers & QR codes

Every spread automatically generates a QR code (PNG) and a flyer in two print-ready sizes:

A5 flyer — perfect for cafés, coworking spaces or shop windows.
A6 flyer — a handy postcard size for distributing.

Both use the wikey neon aesthetic and Dot mascot, are fully vector-based and ready to print. Visit QR & Flyer for an overview of all your spreads.

💡 Strategy: Post flyers where your audience already is — each scan = +10 EVE for you.

🔗 Hardware & distribution

wikey means a bundle of interests: many small messages gathered into one bouquet. A spread need not be printed on paper.

🖼️ E-ink tag (Waveshare)

Show the QR on a low-power e-ink display and update it from your phone over NFC. One tag, any number of spreads.

💍 NFC / RFID ring

Put your spread on an NFC ring. A tap loads it, with no display required.

⭕ Round 2-inch stickers

Download the round 51 mm sticker, ideal as a two-colour thermal round sticker, optionally with an NFC chip behind it.

📎 Punch & bundle

Print, cut, punch and bundle several spreads on one ring — add a display and ring to make your personal wikey.

💡 Tip: Stickers, tags and rings lead to the same QR; each scan earns the spread owner EVE.

🛒 Using the marketplace

The marketplace is a peer-to-peer barter economy: members offer items or services and others buy with EVE.

📡 Offers vs 🔎 Wanted

Offers — offer an item, service or digital good.
Wanted — seek something and pay EVE for it.

🗺 Location & map

Optionally place a location pin. Others see the distance and sort by “Near me”.

⏳ Expiry

Choose 3, 7, 14, 30 days or unlimited. Expired listings are archived and can be reactivated.

💬 Negotiate

Every listing has a polite, transparent chat with a counter-offer field.

⭐ Reviews

After purchase, the buyer gives 1–5 stars. Great reviews unlock badges such as 5-Star Trader and Reliable Seller.

🏅 Badges & progress

You automatically earn badges for activity — from First Spread and EVE Whale to Market Mogul. There are 16 in total.

Your profile shows each badge with a progress bar.
