Arcade: Guide to the Leaderboard, Championships and earning extra Gems for winning

The Championship is Arcade’s overall leaderboard, where all players compete to reach the top positions and win the prizes on offer. The most coveted rewards are awarded, in order of merit, to the top 20 players with the highest number of Gems. Therefore, your position on the leaderboard depends exclusively on the Gems you accumulate during gameplay. You can accumulate Gems more easily in 6 ways:

Completing Quests
With Bonus Gems
Finding Combo Challenges
Collecting Trophies
Holding YNG
Taking part in all Tournaments

Let’s take a look at the prizes on offer and how the Gem accumulation methods work.

Championship duration

The Arcade Championship runs over a period of 91 days:

Start: Monday 20 April at 14:00
End: Monday 20 July at 14:00

You have this time to accumulate enough Gems and reach the top of the leaderboard.

How to climb the Leaderboard

Quests

Quests are specific objectives within the app. By completing a Quest, you will receive Gems, which act as experience points. The more Gems you accumulate, the higher your position on the overall Leaderboard. The number of Gems earned is proportional to the difficulty of the Quest.

Quests are divided according to their duration:

Daily: last 24 hours, refreshed every day.
Weekly: expire after 7 days and reset each week.
Permanent: have no expiry and can be completed at any time.

Bonus Gems

Some special daily quests offer the opportunity to earn extra Gems.

These do not require completing specific objectives but are a reward for players who show higher levels of activity and open the app more frequently. This allows them to achieve better leaderboard positions than those who play less intensively.

We recommend enabling notifications to receive alerts and ensure you don’t miss these extra Gems. As daily quests are only valid for 24 hours.

Finding Combo Challenges

Some quests—daily, weekly and permanent—require the same action. It is possible to complete more than one at the same time with a single action, earning multiple Gems.

Enable newsletters to receive Combo Challenge alerts via email. You can also easily find them by exploring the ongoing tournament and championship quests.

Collecting Trophies

Trophies are the major new feature of this edition and provide a valuable boost to increase the number of Gems you hold.

They are badges that can only be unlocked through active, consistent participation and are divided into 8 distinct categories.

The number of Gems available as a reward is a mystery—it’s up to you to discover it. The only way to reveal it is by unlocking a Trophy.

Note: to secure your Trophy, don’t forget to claim the Gems by tapping the “Claim” button! Skipping this step could cost you dearly, allowing others to overtake you on the Leaderboard.

Holding YNG

Every Monday, players who hold the YNG token receive bonus Gems in proportion to the amount of YNG in their wallet.

Holding a minimum amount of YNG from the start is a significant advantage. These weekly Gems allow for a “quantum leap” on the Leaderboard, helping you progress more quickly throughout the Championship.

You can check your YNG Holder level by scrolling to the bottom of the “Tournament” section.

Taking part in all Tournaments

During the championship, competition is intensified by tournaments. These are additional competitions alongside the championship, but with a shorter duration: each lasts four weeks, at the end of which the winners are announced. Unlike the championship, tournaments also involve an element of luck, although a good strategy can still improve your chances of success.

Each time you accumulate a certain number of Gems, you also earn tickets. These tickets are used to enter the current tournament’s prize draw. It is therefore a matter of luck, but the more tickets you collect, the greater your chances of winning.

If you don’t end up among the winners, there is still good news: you will earn new Gems to move up the leaderboard. In short, you gain Gems by taking part in every tournament, i.e. by completing quests during the four weeks. If you’re lucky, you win a prize; otherwise, you still earn a solid number of Gems to climb the leaderboard.

3% Cashback and Quests

The first chapter of Arcade is linked to the launch of the Young Account with 3% Cashback for everyone and features a series of quests focused on the Young Account and Card: making a deposit, carrying out transactions, and so on.

In short, by using the Young payment account, you can optimise your everyday spending in two ways: by receiving 3% Cashback and earning Gems by completing quests.

For now, the Cashback is only available to users with tax residency in Italy.

We almost forgot one very important detail: the 3% Cashback is a promotion reserved exclusively for the first 1,000 (one thousand!) users who open the Account and activate the Card.

Arcade is live from 14:00 today, Monday 20 April: good luck!

It will be three intense months of healthy competition, fun, and gaining greater awareness of the financial environment around you. If you haven’t done so already, we recommend reading the rest of the rules (link below) to avoid making mistakes that could cost you dearly—have you seen the prizes?

If you already know everything, then all that’s left is to open the Young Platform app and, from 14:00 on 20 April, start collecting as many Gems as possible: good luck!
