Credits-Based Voting

Dear PollUnit Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

We are exploring the use of PollUnit for an upcoming art competition and are particularly interested in the "Sell votes" feature. I have two questions regarding its functionality, based on our specific use case:

Credits-Based Voting:
We would like participants to be able to purchase credits (e.g., $20 for 20 credits), and then allocate those credits as votes to different artworks. For example, a participant could buy $20 worth of credits and vote 5 credits for Artwork #1, and distribute the rest among other entries. Is this scenario supported by your “Sell votes” feature?

Daily Voting Limit per Entry:
We also hope to allow participants to vote for the same artwork once per day, with a maximum of 20 credits per day. Is there a way to configure this daily voting limit per participant per entry?

We would greatly appreciate your clarification on whether these configurations are possible within PollUnit, or if there are recommended workarounds.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Best regards,

Hi Ray,
with the "Sell Votes" feature you can purchase an amount of votes for one entry. So if you want to vote for multiple entries, you would need to do separate purchases.

We also have no daily limit for voting. You can either restrict it totally, so voted once, cannot cast another vote. Or open it entirely to allow multiple votes per device without time limit.

Kind regards
Philipp
