What are Custom tasks?
Use Custom tasks to confirm that a user has completed an instruction that isn't directly trackable. These tasks let you define a required action (submitting a wallet address, pasting an ID, or entering a response) and optionally review it before approval. They're useful when you need flexibility, optional manual validation, or a free-form response.
Use Custom tasks to:
Ask users to complete an off-platform action and paste proof
Collect responses in a short or long text field
Set up manual review with pending approval
Add flexible steps between or after verified actions
For detailed information about general task settings, including task header, description, rewards, dependencies, and more, refer to Task settings.
Configure a Custom task
To configure a Custom task in claimr:
From your campaign dashboard, go to the Quests tab and click on the quest where you want to add a Custom task.
On the quest settings page, click + Create new task.
In the Category section, click General.
In the Groups section, click Common.
Select Custom Task from the Tasks list.
Click Continue.
Task settings
After selecting the task type, move to the next page and configure the following fields:
Completion points: The number of points awarded when the user completes the task.
Points multiplier (%): Add a percentage-based bonus to the total reward. For example, a 20% multiplier increases the final reward by 20%.
Recurrence: Control how often users can complete the task: Once – can only be completed one time per user. Daily – available once every 24 hours. Weekly – available once every 7 days. Multiple – the task stays open and can be completed as many times as needed, one after another, without any waiting time.
Now configure options specific to Custom tasks.
Message – Add a short instruction that will appear above the input field. This can include context about what the user should submit (e.g., “Enter your email” or “Paste your transaction ID”).
WIP Message – Add a message that will be shown while the task is pending approval. For example: “This task will be completed once your submission is reviewed.”
Auto confirm? – Enable this toggle if you want the task to be automatically marked as complete once the user submits a response. If disabled, the task will stay in a “pending” state until manually approved.
Long Text? – Enable this toggle to change the input field from a single line to a multi-line text area. Useful for collecting longer responses.
Button text – Customize the label on the confirmation button (e.g., “Submit” or “Confirm”).
Resubmit button text – Customize the label for the button that appears if the user is asked to submit again.
How Custom tasks appear to users
When users encounter a Custom task, they see the following elements:
The instruction you set in the Message field
A single-line input or multi-line text box, depending on whether Long Text? is enabled
A button to confirm the submission
If Auto confirm? is enabled, the task will be marked as complete immediately after the user clicks the button. If disabled, the task remains in a pending state until it is manually reviewed. The user will see the WIP Message during this period.
If recurrence is set as Multiple, users can repeat the action once it’s confirmed — with no cooldown between submissions.
Pro tip: Custom tasks are perfect for collecting user-generated information like wallet addresses, social media handles, or completion confirmations for off-platform actions. Enable manual review when quality control is important.
