RapidPoints for Premium Downloads

July 02, 2008
In the past, Premium and Collector's Accounts were only credited a RapidPoint when a file was downloaded by a Free User.

From now on, Premium Downloads can generate up to 255 additional RapidPoints per day. Those extra points will be displayed in the account overview in the Premium or Collector's Zone.

Once a day, the extra points will be added to the Premium or Collector's Account's RapidPoints balance and the extra points counter will be reset to zero.


You used to make points from free user downloads only

Now with the new policy, in addition to those points you get points from premium user downloads as well (up to a maximum of 255 a day)

So you end up with more points... this is good since I have the feeling that most of the downloads nowadays come from premium users anyway

Lots of changes going on at Rapidshare the last couple of days:

- no more captchas for free users
- max file size is now 200 MB instead of 100 MB


nice find, drolli. so its good news then! i think this makes it even more beneficial to share now. as i definitely think the majority of downloads are from premium users like you said

I got a free account from RS.de a 3 years ago I was then given a free RS.com account after the changes. I have never had to pay a penny. I upload tons of links and easerly get 10.000+ points a month and am currently a year in advance.

To say its difficult I don't understand that? I hardly need to try.

Unfortunately although you can now upload 200 mgb files to RS their RapidUploader tool will only accept a maximum of 100 mgb. Anyone know of a good alternative tool which will allow up to 200 mgb please?
