Govee Events
Occasionally, Govee hosts In-App events, usually during major holidays. These events often involve playing simple minigames that are more luck-based than skill-based. Prizes for these events are typically coupons redeemable in the Govee App Shopping Mall, but they can also include grand prizes.
If you’re aware of an upcoming major holiday, check the Govee App a few weeks in advance to see if there’s an event scheduled. For example, about 11 days before Father’s Day in the US they recently started a Father’s Day event. At the end of 2023, they held a New Year’s Day event that offered some spectacular prizes, including a 40% off coupon that required some effort to obtain but was definitely worth it!
G Coins
What are G Coins?
G Coins are Govee’s version of a rewards system for using the Govee App. You can redeem your G Coins by purchasing products on the Govee App Mall and using them to lower the cost of select products. Select products are indicated with “G Coin Deductions”.
How to Earn G-Coins?
- Sign in on the Govee App
- Each day you sign in to the app you can get 10 G Coins. If you sign in for 7 consecutive days, you will get a bonus of 20 points for a total of 90 coins in a day.
- Completing Tasks
- You can earn coins by completing tasks found in the G Coins Center.
- Daily tasks include things such as continuously browsing the App Mall for 30 seconds, adding products to the cart, or browsing a category for 15 seconds.
- Purchasing in the App Mall
- For every 1 USD/EUR/CAD/GBP you spend in the App Mall will earn you 1 G Coin. These G Coins will be returned if the product is returned.
- Answering Questions
- You can become an “Answerer” in the Govee App to receive questions from the community. When you answer a question you will be granted 20 G Coins.
G Coin Usage
Normally, you can earn up to an additional 10% off your purchase of eligible products using your G Coins. Govee also offers special Govee Coins Days on Mondays, during which the discount can reach up to 20% using G Coins. Based on the discount amount, each discount of $1 USD/CAD/EUR/GBP will require 5 G Coins. Therefore, if you save $4.50, the cost of that discount will be 23 G Coins.
In the app, you can view your total G Coins and their value in discounts. For instance, I currently have 1945 G Coins, which are worth $389 in discounts when used. However, this doesn’t mean I can immediately purchase Permanent Outdoor Lights and get $389 off the price. Instead, I can deduct 10% of the price, multiply that amount by 5, and use that many G Coins to apply the discount.
