Your Power Level in The Real World 2.0 increases when you consistently use the platform, complete actions that show progress, and contribute value to the community. Here is how you can increase it:
-
Complete your Daily Checklist every day. Daily execution is one of the main ways to increase your Power Level, and consistent use matters.
- Contribute value in chat. Answer questions, help other members, and provide useful feedback when you can.
-
Share your wins. Posting results and updates shows that you are applying what you learn and making progress.
- Complete challenges and bootcamps. Finishing platform challenges increases your Power Level.
- Join higher commitment tiers. Higher membership levels include Power Level boosts and additional access.
- Keep showing up. Power Level reflects ongoing contribution, so regular participation is more effective than occasional activity.
Power Level is a metric inside The Real World 2.0 that reflects your activity, consistency, and contribution. It is used as a signal of participation and affects access to rewards, chats, and platform features.

Power Points are the points you earn by completing the actions listed above. When you earn enough Power Points, you level up to the next Power Level.
You can see how many Power Points you need to reach the next level by clicking your Chess Rank:
- On desktop, click your Chess Rank in the sidebar.
- On mobile, tap the 3 dots in the bottom-right corner, then tap your Chess Rank.
A higher Power Level may unlock rewards, access, and features inside The Real World 2.0. It also affects which chats and community areas members can access, while also serving as a visible signal of activity to other users.
