A project is an environment on the Yellow Tokens platform that groups companies, establishments, or products so that data and consumer feedback analyses can be viewed in an aggregated manner.
On the Yellow Tokens platform, there are three types of projects:
(i) custom projects
(ii) ready model projects from the Project Store
(iii) welcome projects
A custom project is one that requires configuration by a user. While it involves an additional setup step, it allows any company, establishment, or product to be registered and monitored.
A series of pre-configured projects are available for subscription in the Project Store. These include projects that monitor major companies across various segments. No configuration step is required, but the companies, establishments, and products in these projects are predefined and cannot be altered.
A welcome project is a pre-configured project designed to help you understand the platform’s features before deciding to acquire a business account or a ready-made project from the Project Store. Welcome projects are free.
Editing a project refers to the action of adding or changing the companies, establishments, or products in a custom project.
No. Ready model projects from the Project Store and welcome projects cannot be edited.
By definition, the master user and manager users can edit all custom projects in the account. Standard users can only edit the custom projects for which they have been granted permission.

(iii) Scheduled for Deactivation
Ready model projects from the Project Store and welcome projects will always have the status “Active.” Only custom projects can be deactivated through scheduling.

The deactivation scheduling of a project cannot be undone. Therefore, pay close attention when scheduling a project deactivation.
Once a custom project is deactivated, it will no longer be possible to access its data and feedback analysis or edit its settings, and the credits for custom projects, companies, establishments, or products will be released to your account.

Questions About Projects
Once a company is registered, it takes approximately 6 hours for customer feedback data to appear on your project’s dashboard.
A company can have the following statuses:
(i) Active
This status indicates that the company is ready to collect feedback data.
(ii) Scheduled for Deletion
This status indicates that the deletion of the company has been scheduled. The company will continue to collect feedback data until the scheduled deletion date.
No, it is not possible to deactivate a company. If you no longer wish to see feedback data from a specific company, you must delete it.
A company’s URL cannot be edited. Therefore, pay close attention when filling in this information.
If you incorrectly enter a company’s URL, you will need to schedule the deletion of that company and register a new one with the correct URL.
The process of deleting a company works through scheduling. When you delete a company, the deletion is scheduled for the next date that has the same day as the day you acquired your business account subscription.
For example, if you acquired your business account on October 5, 2024, deletions of your companies will always be scheduled for the next 5th. If you request the deletion of a company on the 5th of a given month, the deletion will occur at the end of that same day.
If you wish to acquire additional credits for companies for your account, follow the steps below:
1 - Right after logging in, you will see a circle with a person’s image located at the top right corner of the screen on all pages of the Yellow Tokens platform. By clicking on it, if you are the master user of your account and your account has a valid subscription, you will see the "My Subscriptions" menu item. Click on this item.
2 - On the next page, you will see all the subscriptions your account has. Locate the subscription for your business account and click the "Buy asset credits" button.
Questions About Companies
Once an establishment is verified, it typically takes 30 minutes for customer feedback data from Google Maps to appear on your project’s dashboard, and 6 hours for feedback data from TripAdvisor.
An establishment can have the following statuses:
(i) Searching for Establishment
This status indicates that the establishment has just been registered, and the Yellow Tokens platform is searching for it on Google Maps.
(ii) Perform Verification
This status indicates that the Yellow Tokens platform has completed the search for this establishment on Google Maps. Now, you need to click on the “Perform Verification” button, choose the correct establishment, and verify it.
(iii) Active
This status indicates that the establishment has been verified and is ready to collect feedback data.
(iv) Scheduled for Deletion
This status indicates that the deletion of the establishment has been scheduled. The establishment will continue to collect feedback data until the scheduled deletion date.
No, it is not possible to deactivate an establishment. If you no longer wish to see feedback data from a specific establishment, you must delete it.
If your establishment has not yet been verified, you can change any of its fields at any time.
However, once an establishment is verified, its URL, address, or Google Maps coordinates cannot be changed.
If you verify an establishment incorrectly, you will need to schedule the deletion of that establishment and register a new one with the correct information.
If your establishment has not yet been verified, you can delete it at any time.
The process of deleting a verified establishment works through scheduling. When you delete a verified establishment, the deletion is scheduled for the next date that has the same day as the day you acquired your business account subscription.
For example, if you acquired your business account on October 5, 2024, deletions of your verified establishments will always be scheduled for the next 5th. If you request the deletion of a verified establishment on the 5th of a given month, the deletion will occur at the end of that same day.
If you wish to acquire additional credits for establishments for your account, follow the steps below:
1 - Right after logging in, you will see a circle with a person’s image located at the top right corner of the screen on all pages of the Yellow Tokens platform. By clicking on it, if you are the master user of your account and your account has a valid subscription, you will see the "My Subscriptions" menu item. Click on this item.
2 - On the next page, you will see all the subscriptions your account has. Locate the subscription for your business account and click the "Buy asset credits" button.
It is not possible to configure a project with companies, establishments, and products on the Yellow Tokens platform. Depending on the segment of your project, you may configure either companies and establishments or companies and products.
If the establishments menu is not appearing in your project, it is likely that when creating your custom project, you selected a segment that does not allow for the registration of establishments, but rather of products.
Once you register an establishment, the Yellow Tokens platform will search for it on Google Maps using the address information you provided. Therefore, it is very important that you fill in the address details carefully. The chances of the Yellow Tokens platform finding the establishment significantly increase if you enter the address and name exactly as they appear on Google Maps.
To discover the Google Maps coordinates for your establishment, follow the steps below:
1. Go to https://www.google.com/maps.
2. Find the desired establishment.
3. Right-click on the address pin that appears on the screen.
4. Click on the coordinates.
5. Paste the copied coordinates into the “Google Maps Coordinates” field in the establishment registration box on the Yellow Tokens platform by pressing Control + V (Windows) or Command (⌘) + V (Mac).
If you clicked the "Perform Verification" button next to your establishment and nothing appeared, the Yellow Tokens platform was unable to find your establishment on Google Maps.
Edit the address information for your establishment and try again. Don't forget to fill in the coordinates from Google Maps, as doing so significantly increases the chances of success.
If the problem persists, please contact Yellow Tokens support.
Questions About Establishments
Once a product is registered, it typically takes up to 6 hours for feedback data from Amazon to appear.
A product can have the following statuses:
(i) Active
This status indicates that the product is ready to collect feedback data.
(ii) Scheduled for Deletion
This status indicates that the deletion of the product has been scheduled. The product will continue to collect feedback data until the scheduled deletion date.
No, it is not possible to deactivate a product. If you no longer wish to see feedback data for a specific product, you must delete it.
A segment of a project is the sector of the economy associated with all the companies in the project.
On the Yellow Tokens platform, a product has an even higher level of categorization: in addition to belonging to a company, which in turn belongs to a project of a specific segment, a product is also categorized into a subsegment.
This greater level of detail allows for more precise analyses of consumer feedback on products. For example, a company in a project in the “Beauty and Perfumery” segment may manufacture products in the subsegments “Shampoo” or “Perfume.”
The subsegment or URL of a product cannot be edited. Therefore, pay close attention when filling in these details.
If you incorrectly fill in the subsegment or URL of a product, you will need to schedule the deletion of that product and register a new one with the correct information.
The process of deleting a product works through scheduling. When you delete a product, the deletion is scheduled for the next date that has the same day as the day you acquired your business account subscription.
For example, if you acquired your business account on October 5, 2024, deletions of your products will always be scheduled for the next 5th. If you request the deletion of a product on the 5th of a given month, the deletion will occur at the end of that same day.
If you wish to acquire additional credits for products for your account, follow the steps below:
1 - Right after logging in, you will see a circle with a person’s image located at the top right corner of the screen on all pages of the Yellow Tokens platform. By clicking on it, if you are the master user of your account and your account has a valid subscription, you will see the "My Subscriptions" menu item. Click on this item.
2 - On the next page, you will see all the subscriptions your account has. Locate the subscription for your business account and click the "Buy asset credits" button.
It is not possible to configure a project with companies, establishments, and products on the Yellow Tokens platform. Depending on the segment of your project, you may configure either companies and establishments or companies and products.
If the products menu is not appearing in your project, it is likely that when creating your custom project, you selected a segment that does not allow for the registration of products, but rather of establishments.
Currently, the Yellow Tokens platform captures customer feedback on products from the Amazon website. Consequently, only products with a valid URL on the Amazon platform can be registered.
Questions About Products
A personal account is an account that cannot have custom projects and can only have 1 (one) user. This user is the master user of the account and can only view welcome projects or subscribe to ready-made projects from the Project Store.
A business account, on the other hand, can have custom projects and can have more than 1 (one) user. A business account can also have subscriptions to ready-made projects from the Project Store.
Acquiring a business account subscription will allow you to monitor the companies, establishments, and products you wish. Additionally, you will be able to invite other users to your account.
Ways to acquire a business account subscription:

The concept of account balance exists only for business accounts.
This balance is calculated by comparing the number of custom projects, companies, establishments, products, users, and monthly feedback your account is entitled to with the amount currently being used for each of these resources.
The usage quantity for each of these resources considers the following rules:
The counting of the number of monthly feedback your account is consuming is done automatically by the Yellow Tokens platform. Based on the number of monthly feedback your account is entitled to, the platform adjusts to seek this feedback from each of the profiles configured by you during the setup of your custom projects.
Only the master user of an account can delete it. To do this, follow the steps below:
1 - Remove all other users from your account.

Questions About Accounts
The concept of feedback credit exists only for business accounts.
The feedback credit of your business account determines the maximum number of feedbacks that can be captured across all your custom projects.
When you acquired your business account, you defined the number of custom projects, companies, establishments, products, and users for your account.
Based on this information, the Yellow Tokens platform automatically calculated the number of feedbacks your account can monitor per month.
To view the number of feedbacks your account can monitor per month, follow the steps below:
1 - Right after logging in, you will see a circle with a person’s image located at the top right corner of the screen on all pages of the Yellow Tokens platform. By clicking on it, if you are the master user or a manager user, you will see the number of feedbacks your account can monitor per month.
No. There is no guarantee that the total number of feedbacks your account can monitor will actually be captured by the Yellow Tokens platform.
The Yellow Tokens platform will attempt to capture this number of feedbacks on digital platforms, but if there aren't that many feedbacks available, that number will not be reached.
No. The Yellow Tokens platform does not capture all comments made on digital platforms.
The platform only captures comments that relate to customer purchase experiences or customers’ perceptions of a brand.
Example:
Imagine a supermarket posted a cake recipe on Instagram, and people commented, “I really like this recipe.” This type of comment is not considered feedback by the Yellow Tokens platform and, therefore, is not captured.
Now, in the same example, if people comment, “I’m always satisfied when I buy the ingredients for this recipe at this supermarket,” the Yellow Tokens platform will recognize this comment as feedback and capture it.
If the companies, establishments, or products you registered have more feedback on digital platforms than the number calculated by the Yellow Tokens platform when you acquired your business account, you can acquire additional feedback credits at any time. You will receive a notification if the Yellow Tokens platform identifies that there are more feedbacks on digital platforms than the credits your account has.
Ways to acquire additional monthly feedback credits:
1 - Right after logging in, you will see a circle with a person’s image located at the top right corner of the screen on all pages of the Yellow Tokens platform. By clicking on it, if you are the master user of your account and your account has a valid subscription, you will see the "My Subscriptions" menu item. Click on this item.
2 - On the next page, you will see all the subscriptions your account has. Locate the subscription for your business account and click the "Buy feedback credits" button.
No. Based on the monthly feedback credits your account has, the Yellow Tokens platform will determine how many feedbacks will be captured in each of your custom projects.
No. Only feedbacks from your custom projects consume the feedback credits of your account.
