# Star a GitHub Repository
> GitHub repo star loyalty rule. Reward users for starring your GitHub repository.
## **Overview**

## **Prerequisites**
* The user must have connected their GitHub account to Snag.
* The user must star the specified GitHub repository.
## **Rule Configuration Fields**
### **Reward**
* **Type of Reward**: Choose between "Points" or "Multiplier".
* **Points**: Users will get the defined no of points.
* **Multiplier**: Users will get the multiplier of the defined amount.
### **Basic Settings**
* **Update Cadence**: The Star GitHub Repository rule rewards users **immediately** upon successful verification that the repository has been starred.
* **User Reward Frequency**: This is a one-time reward that users can claim after starring the repository.
### **Custom Settings**

* **GitHub Repo URL** \*: The full URL of the GitHub repository that users need to star (e.g., `https://github.com/owner/repository`). This is a required field that identifies the target repository.
## **Verification Process**
Users verify their GitHub repository star through the following process:
Users must first connect their GitHub account to Snag if they haven't already done so.
Users navigate to the specified GitHub repository using the provided URL and
click the star button to star the repository.
After starring the repository, users can claim the reward through the loyalty
rule interface.
The system verifies that: - The user's GitHub account has access to the
repository - The repository has been starred by the user's connected GitHub
account - The repository URL matches the configured repository
Once verified, users receive their reward immediately.
## **Important Notes**
Users must have their GitHub account connected before they can claim this
reward. The system will automatically verify that the repository has been
starred by the connected GitHub account.
The GitHub Repo URL should be in the format
`https://github.com/owner/repository`.
