# Overview

The Activelink ID (issued upon successful registration) acts as a gateway to enter into the Activelink ecosystem while empowering the users with the ability to collect and earn Badges & Collectibles.

Badges and Collectibles serve as unique digital assets that provide users with access to exclusive content, features, and communities within the Activelink ecosystem- a concept known as NFT Gating.&#x20;

When users acquire these NFT badges or collectibles, they gain privileges or rights that are not available to others who do not possess them. For example, owning a specific NFT badge might grant a user access to a restricted area of the application like the Shop page.&#x20;

NFT gating leverages the scarcity and uniqueness of digital assets to provide users with enhanced experiences and privileges, fostering a sense of exclusivity and belonging within the Activelink environment.&#x20;
