How it works

Useful all day. Earning only when you want.

1

Keep it open

Perkbar shows the time and a line of motivation right in the notch, in the one spot you never close.

2

Flip earn mode

When you opt in, short, positive brand one-liners rotate in the notch. No pop-ups, no takeovers, just the notch you already have. Points stack as they show.

3

Redeem points

Turn points into AI credits, gift-card vouchers, or a crypto payout. Climb the leaderboard while you're at it.

Rewards

Points become the good stuff.

Earning is pocket-money pace, not a paycheck, but it stacks in the background while you work, and the leaderboard makes it a game.

Request advertiser access
No browsing or screen tracking

We record which ad was shown and for how long. Nothing about your files, apps or the sites you visit.

No sensitive permissions

No screen recording, accessibility, camera or microphone. Only whether the Mac is idle, so earning pauses when you step away.

Earning is always optional

Off, Perkbar is just a clock in your notch. Flip the switch when you want to earn, and off again whenever.
