Adds CubePoints support to Buddypress. Reward members using your BuddyPress portion of your website by giving them points and awards! IMPORTANT: You will need to install CubePoints (at least version 3.0.1) first.

Integrates with the CubePoints Giveaway & Betting System

See full details on how the system works and how to get it here. But a brief overview is you can setup a giveaway where your members can enter a giveaway using points. They can get extra entries in the giveaway for sharing it on Twitter, Google+, Facebook and a few other ways and earn points for it!

There is a built in betting system so your members can bet their points against each other. If you have this system installed it displays the number of lotteries or bets they have not entered, in the top BuddyPress admin bar.

Here is what you can get points for. You can change these values or disable them in the BP CubePoints admin menu.
