Questing Platforms Task Cards let you connect external quest ecosystems—such as Galxe and Zealy—directly into your Absinthe campaign and stream that activity into your own white-labeled experience. In Web3 today, questing platforms are primarily distribution channels, not destinations. Their value lies in their user bases, not in the mechanics of the quests themselves. Similar to paid acquisition, quests are a way to drive traffic. The real objective is to pull that traffic into your own product, hold attention there, and convert participation into long-term engagement under your brand. Absinthe enables this by converting points or XP earned on questing platforms into native campaign points, which can then participate in tiers, referrals, tokenization, and tradability. See the Tokenization section for more details on extending these incentives further.

​
Adding a questing platform task card

To add a quest-based Interactive Task Card:
  1. Navigate to the Task Cards section in the campaign sidebar
  2. Select the Questing Platforms tab in the top-right
  3. Click Add Quest
  4. Choose the questing platform you want to connect (Zealy or Galxe)
Each questing platform is configured as its own task card.

​
Zealy quests

When you select Zealy, you are first prompted to choose which Zealy community you want to reward. Zealy communities are configured at the workspace level under Data Integrations. The dropdown lists all Zealy communities currently connected to your workspace. If the community you want does not appear, you can click the plus (+) button to add it under Data Integrations and return to the campaign afterward. After selecting a community, you can optionally select a Zealy Sprint. Sprints are sub-sections within a Zealy campaign that scope activity to a specific set of actions. Selecting a sprint ensures that only XP earned within that sprint is streamed into your campaign.

​
Galxe quests

Galxe follows the same configuration pattern as Zealy. You select a connected Galxe campaign from the dropdown. If the campaign is not available, you can use the plus (+) button to add it under workspace Data Integrations. You can also optionally select a specific Galxe Sprint to limit which quest activity is converted into campaign points.

​
Converting quest XP into campaign points

XP or points streamed from questing platforms can be converted into campaign incentives using a configurable conversion rule. Two conversion methodologies are supported: Direct conversion (scaling factor = 1) Each point or XP earned on the questing platform converts 1:1 into a campaign point. Scaled conversion You define a scaling factor to normalize external XP into your campaign economy. For example:
  • A scaling factor of 0.5 creates a 2:1 ratio
  • A scaling factor of 0.1 creates a 10:1 ratio
This is useful when quest platforms issue XP at a much higher volume than you want in your native campaign. You also select which campaign currency the converted points are issued in (XP, Gold, or Gems).

​
Caps and limits

As with other Task Cards, questing platform rewards support caps. You can configure:
  • A per-user cap, limiting how many points an individual can earn from the quest source
  • Source-level caps, limiting total issuance across all users on a daily, weekly, monthly, or all-time basis
Caps are strongly recommended when importing external XP to maintain a controlled incentive supply.

​
Verification and tracking model

Questing platform activity is campaign-page initiated. Absinthe does not continuously ingest or monitor Galxe or Zealy activity in the background for campaigns. Only users who visit the campaign webpage and explicitly fetch their quest progress are rewarded. This ensures clean attribution, prevents accidental over-issuance, and reinforces the campaign page as the canonical engagement surface.

​
Why questing platforms work best with campaigns

Questing platforms are effective at discovery, but weak at retention. Absinthe campaigns turn that discovery into ownership by anchoring quest activity to your own incentives, branding, and progression mechanics. By pulling quest XP into your campaign, you convert rented attention into a system you control—one that compounds across tiers, product usage, and long-term participation.
