Rewards, Leaderboards, Season Rewards, and More - MoonKarts Offers Variety of Rewards

In Moon Karts, the earnings and rewards structure is designed to both reward skill and incentivise longer-term engagement. The game uses a multi-factor system: how good you are at racing, how much time you spend playing, the quality of your NFTs, and how many governance tokens you’ve staked — all of those matter. If you’re a high-performer with a top card set and you’ve staked governance tokens, you’ll be at the front of the pack. Miss one of those factors and you’ll likely lag.

Tokens called COLONY are allocated daily and divided among several key pools. Forty percent go to the “Orbitals” pool, twenty-five percent to the ranking pool, ten percent to tokens found on the racetrack, five percent to the referral pool, and twenty percent to a seasonal pool. The seasonal pool (over a ten-day cycle) is especially interesting: it accumulates from that 20 percent share and rewards players based on their leaderboard position at the end of the cycle — therefore consistent performance is rewarded, not just a one-off win.

When it comes to earning via racing, there are three main mechanisms: first, picking up COLONY tokens on the track and winning the race without losing them; second, achieving a high ELO (skill) ranking and earning from daily/seasonal leaderboards; third, collecting “Orbitals” tokens on the track and using high-quality NFTs so you earn more orbitals, which in turn convert to COLONY rewards.

On the side, there is a referral programme: each new player who registers with your invite link and spends at least $20 gives you referral “points”. Every additional $20 they spend adds more points. These points become your share of the referral pool (5 % of the token distribution). Note that only fiat or non-Arcade-Colony token spend counts — if they spend COLONY or SCRIPT, it doesn’t count. Also, to avoid abuse, a daily cap limits any one account to a maximum of 0.5 % of the total rewards pool or 10 % of the referral pool per day. Unused referral tokens roll over to the next day.

In sum: Moon Karts isn't just about winning races — it’s a layered ecosystem where skill, NFT investment, and strategic participation all pay off. For players looking to maximise their earnings, focus on building strong cards, playing consistently, staking governance tokens, and if you like, referring new players. When all those cogs turn together, the rewards engine really hums.
