In the upper-right corner, select Create Reward Unit.
Select a Reward unit type.
Enter a descriptive Name.
Complete the setup steps specific to the reward unit type.
From the Currency drop-down list, select a currency for this reward unit. Only one currency can be selected.
If you selected USD as your currency and W-9 Compliance is turned on for your Advocate program, then participants who earn rewards based on this reward unit will have the value of the reward unit counted toward their taxable total for the year.
