Partner Validation Explanation
A transparent explanation of server-side callbacks, partner approval, pending states, rejections, reversals, and why Novearn credits rewards only after validation.
What partner validation means
Partner validation is the process of confirming that a user action was eligible, completed correctly, attributed to the right user, and accepted by the reward partner.
Novearn should not credit final wallet balance based only on a browser click, screenshot, or user claim. Final credit requires a trusted partner signal or approved reconciliation process.
Typical reward lifecycle
A task usually moves through several states: available, opened, started, pending, confirmed, rejected, or reversed. Not every partner uses the same wording, but Novearn maps partner statuses into a simple dashboard flow.
- Started: the user opened a tracked opportunity.
- Pending: Novearn is waiting for partner validation or a review window.
- Confirmed: the partner accepted the action and Novearn checks are passed.
- Rejected or reversed: the action is not payable or was later cancelled by the partner.
Server-side callbacks
When available, Novearn uses server-side callbacks or postbacks to receive partner updates. These callbacks may include a user ID, offer ID, transaction ID, reward amount, status, timestamp, and signature or secret validation.
Server-side validation is more reliable than client-side claims because it reduces manipulation and keeps the reward record tied to the partner’s system.
Why delays happen
Validation can be delayed because partners check completion quality, survey consistency, install retention, advertiser approval, anti-fraud signals, or payment settlement. Some tasks can confirm quickly; others may take days or longer.
User transparency
Novearn should show users whether each reward is pending, confirmed, rejected, or reversed, and avoid presenting unvalidated rewards as withdrawable money.
