Economy

The platform has two currencies. Zeal is earned by learning and competing and measures standing. Jolt is spent on extras such as hints, timer renewals and generated problems. How users earn and spend them is in Zeal and Jolt.

By the end of this page you will know how to investigate any currency movement, which admin actions create currency, and what the Achievements pages do in this release.

Transactions

Admin Panel → Platform → Transactions (/admin/transactions), headed "Transaction Monitor".

A read-only view of every Zeal and Jolt movement.

What you see

Summary cards show Total Earned, Total Spent, Net and the number of Transactions for your filter. Pick a user and a card for that user appears too.

The table shows Date, Direction, User, Amount, Type, Description and Valid.

You cannot grant, adjust or reverse currency here

Transactions is for looking only. There is no button to top someone up, correct a balance or undo a transaction.

Investigating a suspicious balance

1. Filter by the User and the Currency in question.
2. Set Status to All so invalid transactions are included.
3. Sort through the Type and Description columns for repeated or unexpected earnings.
4. Cross-check the user's page, which has a Zeal Earnings Breakdown by type. See Users.

Achievements

Admin Panel → Evaluation & Arena → Achievements (/admin/achievements)

Custom achievements are not awarded in this release

You can create and delete achievement definitions here, but nothing checks them or pays their rewards yet. Do not promise learners a reward based on a custom achievement.

Create Achievement (/admin/achievements/create) asks for:

Field	Meaning
Achievement Name and Description	What learners would see
Cohort	Limit it to one cohort, or Global (no cohort)
Rules	A source (challenge, quiz, Code Arena or Learn AI), a measure, a comparison and a value. Add Rule adds another.
Zeal Reward and Jolt Reward	What it would pay

Custom Achievements lists them with their cohort, rewards and status. Achievements cannot be edited; Delete one (with confirmation) and create it again.
