Playing on BOXED earns XP, XP raises your level, and your level unlocks Daily Reward Boxes you can claim every day. A daily streak makes those boxes worth more. This article explains how each part works and how they fit together.

Every gem you spend on an experience earns XP, and every level you reach gives a reward. Daily Reward Box slots unlock at levels 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70, for a maximum of 10 slots. Everything on BOXED resets at 00:00 UTC, including your Daily Reward Boxes and your streak day, so there is a single daily cutoff to remember. A streak is built by opening boxes or playing battles on consecutive days, and it adds between 1% and 10% to the value of your Daily Reward Boxes. Your reward pool grows the more you play and shrinks during long periods of inactivity, but simply missing a day of claiming does not shrink it. You can speed up XP with purchasable XP Boosts and with a subscription, which adds a permanent XP percentage.

You earn XP by using gems on experiences across BOXED. Every gem you put into an experience earns XP, so opening boxes, playing Box Battles, using Vending machines, building in Forge, and playing Hop or Drop all contribute. There is no single activity you have to choose, because XP accrues from whatever you actually play. Your current level is shown on your profile.

Every level you reach unlocks a reward. Rewards vary by level and can include:

Certain levels also unlock a new Daily Reward Box slot, which is covered next.

Daily Reward Boxes are boxes you can claim each day at no gem cost. You start with one slot and unlock additional slots as you level up, at these levels:

Levels 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70.

That is a maximum of 10 Daily Reward Box slots once you reach level 70. Each new slot is added automatically the moment you reach the level, with no claim step to complete. Daily Reward Boxes reset at 00:00 UTC, and once they reset a fresh set is available to claim.

There is one daily cutoff on BOXED and it is 00:00 UTC. Your Daily Reward Boxes reset then, and your streak day rolls over then. Your local clock does not affect either one, so if you are several hours behind or ahead of UTC, the daily rollover will fall at a different local time for you than for someone in another time zone. It is worth working out once what 00:00 UTC is in your local time and using that as your reference point from then on.

A streak counts the consecutive days on which you open boxes or play battles. The longer the streak, the more your unlocked Daily Reward Boxes are worth, so a 10% bonus means your Daily Reward Boxes carry 10% more value.

The bonus starts at 1% and increases every three days, capping at 10% from day 28 onward:

Two things do not count toward a streak: demo opens and claiming a Daily Reward Box. What does count is a real box open paid for in gems, or playing a battle. So if you want to keep a streak alive on a quiet day, one real box open before 00:00 UTC is enough.

The value pool behind your Daily Reward Boxes is not fixed. It grows as you play more and shrinks during extended inactivity. Importantly, missing a day of claiming does not shrink your pool. Forgetting to claim costs you that day's boxes, and it breaks your streak if you also did not open a box or play a battle, but it does not reduce the pool itself. The pool responds to how much you play over time, not to whether you remembered to press claim.

If your pool has shrunk, you can build it back up by playing regularly again. There is no separate reset or appeal needed, because the pool recovers as your activity recovers.

XP Boosts are purchasable consumables priced between 99 and 699 gems, with the higher-priced boosts giving a larger effect. A boost activates immediately when you buy it, so there is no way to hold one in reserve for later. The practical consequence is simple: buy a boost at the start of a session you are about to play, rather than in advance.

Only one boost can be active at a time. Buying a new boost while one is already running replaces the active boost rather than stacking with it, so it is worth letting a boost run out before buying another if you want the full benefit of each.

A subscription adds a permanent XP percentage for as long as the subscription is active:

You do not need a subscription to level up or to unlock Daily Reward Boxes. Every level and every Daily Reward Box slot is reachable without one, and a subscription only changes how quickly you get there.

Your Daily Reward Boxes and your streak both reset at 00:00 UTC. There is only one daily cutoff on BOXED, and it does not follow your local time zone, so it is worth checking what 00:00 UTC is where you are.

You build a streak by opening a box with gems or playing a battle on consecutive days, with each day ending at 00:00 UTC. Demo opens and claiming a Daily Reward Box do not count toward it, so one real open or one battle is what keeps a streak alive.

The streak bonus increases the value of your unlocked Daily Reward Boxes. It starts at 1%, rises every three days, and caps at 10% once your streak reaches 28 days and beyond.

New Daily Reward Box slots unlock at levels 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70, giving you a maximum of 10 slots. Each slot is added automatically as soon as you reach the level.

Every level you reach unlocks a reward, which can be gems, Luckback shards, a key that opens one box for free in a matching price range, or a profile banner. Certain levels also add a new Daily Reward Box slot.

Missing a day of claiming does not shrink your reward pool. You lose the boxes that were available that day, and your streak breaks if you also did not open a box or play a battle, but the pool itself responds to how much you play over time rather than to whether you claimed.

Your reward pool shrinks during extended periods of inactivity, and it grows again once you start playing regularly. To build it back up, open boxes or play battles regularly, and note that a single missed claim is not what caused the drop.

An XP Boost cannot be saved, because it activates the moment you buy it. Buy a boost when you are about to start a session so that you get the most out of it, and let an active boost finish before buying another, since a new boost replaces the one already running rather than stacking with it.

A subscriber XP bonus applies continuously for as long as your subscription is active, and it is separate from a purchased XP Boost. What does not combine is one XP Boost with another, since only one boost can be active at a time.

You do not need a subscription to level up or to unlock any Daily Reward Box slot. Every level and every slot is reachable through normal play, and a subscription only increases the rate at which you earn XP.
