GridPass Protocol

On-Chain Engagement Infrastructure for Brands, Artists & Businesses on LUKSO

Version: 0.4

Status: Whitepaper – Ready for Stakeholder Review

---

🎯 Overview

GridPass is a Miniapp on LUKSO's The Grid that any host – brand, artist, business, or creator – can activate on their Universal Profile. Visitors and followers interact with the GridPass, earn XP, reach levels, maintain streaks, and receive rewards – all on-chain, all owned by the participants.

What Makes GridPass Unique

- Plug & Play on The Grid: One click activates the GridPass on the host's profile

- Hosts define the rules: Tasks, rewards, timeframes, and conditions are fully host-controlled

- Premium Pass option: Followers can purchase an upgraded pass with exclusive content

- Time-based modes: Event pass (3 days), monthly recurring, seasonal – freely configurable

- On-chain engagement: XP, streaks, and badges belong to the users – not the platform

- Infinitely extensible: Through LUKSO's LSP17 Contract Extensions
