Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and rewarding a user's participation in an incentivized activity is constructed and arranged to verify that the user is engaging in the incentivized activity as a condition for awarding an incentive. The system may be configured to verify whether the user is engaging in the incentivized activity at all, or to monitor the quality of the user's participation in the incentivized activity. The incentivized activity could be any online activity, activity that occurs on an interactive television system or activity that occurs on a mobile device such as a smart phone or tablet computer.
