How to get 30 connects for Rising Star?

[Djordje T]

Thank you, Bojan.

Hi, Bojan.

I'm having the same issue. I'd appreciate it if you contacted me to explain how do I get my "Rising Talent" bonus connects. 

Here it clearly says that's one of the perks of being one.

Thanks!

[Bojan S]

Hi Franco,

Thank you for reaching out to us! Our team has already credited you your bonus connects, you can check your connects history for more details.

Hi ! 

I also get my rising talent profile but I did not receive the 30 connect bonus, can anyone help me?

[Bojan S]

Hi Carolina,

Please note that it can take up to 48 hours for the system to update and award you your 30 free connects. Let us know if you haven't received your connects after 48 hours and we'll assist you further.

Thank you.

 And once again: Absolute nonsense. One of the perks of Rising Talent status is a set of free Connects.

How do I get my extra 30 connects please?

[Bojan S]

Hi Delia,

Rising Talent status is automatically applied to users who's profiles meet all of the requirements. You can have a look at this article about Becoming Rising Talent to see what the exact requirements are that you must meet to obtain a Rising Talent badge on your profile. Once the requirements are met, you'll be invited into the program automatically and receive the badge and 30 free connects within 48 hours.
