# Boosts

A boost is a temporary increase to your ticket weight granted by a campaign. Where the [odds multipliers](/docs/how-payouts-work/odds.md) build slowly from your own behavior, boosts arrive from the outside, through a partner launch, a new vault opening, or a community allowlist.

### Ways to qualify

| Boost type    | Who gets it                                               |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| Everyone      | All depositors in the boosted vault                       |
| Asset deposit | Depositors of a specific asset on a specific chain        |
| Time window   | Anyone depositing during the campaign period              |
| Referral      | Users who joined through a given referral code            |
| NFT holder    | Wallets holding a qualifying collection                   |
| Allowlist     | Wallets on a campaign list, typically a partner community |

Boosts you qualify for appear on your dashboard automatically. There is nothing to claim or activate.

### The rules

Boost math is designed to stay legible.

* **Boosts add to your multiplier.** A +25% boost adds 0.25, so a saver at 1.20 runs at 1.45x. Addition rather than multiplication keeps campaign stacking from spiraling.
* **Your largest boost applies, alone.** Qualify for three and you get the best one. This keeps campaigns generous without creating a boost-farming meta.
* **Every boost has a start and an end.** Expired boosts leave your ticket math immediately.
* **The $25,000 ticket-weight cap still applies.**

[Teams](/docs/rewards-and-social/teams.md) carry a separate, longer-lived boost that grows with your team's size and combined deposits, up to +25% at the top level.

{% hint style="info" %}
A boost raises your weight relative to the pool. The draw itself stays random. Boosted tickets improve odds, they don't reserve outcomes.
