Get Honest Book Reviews without Review Swaps discussion

What does 200+300 mean for Boost? I thought it’s probably for Goodreads+amazon but even for reviews for which I didn’t ask Goodreads link it’s still showing 200+300 for boost.
When I look at posted books to pick from though I only see +300 for boost. So what’s the additional 200 for?

Hi Shilpa,
This feature lifts the review request to the top of the review pool and also offers additional coins. Initially, these were planned as two separate features, but then it was decided to combine them. They may be separated into two different features in the future.

Okay, so the 200 is to put your book at the top, and the 300 is to offer more coins to the reviewer?

@Maggie, so is it 200 or 300 or 500? Because when I go to boost my book I am being asked for 500 but every book that is available as Boost, only gives me 300 when I go to select it.

Hi Angela,

Yes, that’s correct. In the future, both options will be priced the same (either 200 or 300) and will become separate features. The 200/300 would be the price for the boost, and an additional 200/300 would be the price to lift the request higher in the review pool

So why am I being asked for 500 in one go to boost my book?

SA, 200 to put the book at the top, 300 offered to the reviewer

200 coins are for putting the book at the top of the review pool and the remaining 300 coins go toward a reviewer boost.

Hi Shilpa,
as I mentioned, part of the coins is spent to lift the book in the review pool, and the second part is spent to boost the book’s price in coins. I’ll ask our developers to add a detailed explanation on the platform as well.
