Ingress: Receive Recruiter Medal - you have to do that
You will receive the medal or badge "Recruiter" when you invite people to Ingress who have not yet played the game. However, there are other requirements. We'll show you what they are.
Ingress: Receive a recruiter badge - how it works
To receive the badge, you must first recruit players for Ingress. Over time, you will always receive new invitations that you can then send out. Here's how it works:
- Open Ingress on your iPhone or Android smartphone.
- Touch "OPS" in the top right.
- Scroll to the "RECRUIT" tab at the top of the screen and tap on "Recruit Agents" (see picture).
- Enter the GMail address of the friend you want to advertise and tap "Invite".
- Note: It must be a GMail address, as the verification will later be done via Google+.
When will I receive the Ingress Medal "Recruiter"?
- You will only receive the first badge (bronze) if at least two recruiters have verified with the same GMail address that you used to invite them. You also have to wait until the players reach level 3. To achieve the latter faster, you can help them collect experience points. For example, go on tour together, destroy foreign portals and let your friend deploy the first resonators.
- You will receive the silver award as soon as at least 10 invited friends have reached level 3.
- To get the golden badge, you need to get 25 new agents.
- Platinum is available for 50 invited friends with level 3.
- You reach the royal level onyx if you get 100 people excited about Ingress.
You will also receive a badge if you create some ingress portals yourself. You can find out how this works in another practical tip.
