What is a Programme? A programme is a combination of multiple marketplaces enabling a global experience — housing + activities + training, for example. Programmes are the operational backbone of WikiDeal. They turn theoretical contracts into real-world impact by orchestrating several use cases into a coherent journey. A single marketplace (e.g., babysitting) is not itself a programme — it is a service used within one or more programmes (e.g., Volunteering, Education).

The 12 Programmes

1. Volunteering Programme Social

Contribution through time and skills. Open to all — from basic tasks (babysitting, cleaning, tidying, cooking) to high-value contributions (strategic advice, working groups, facilitation). Formation by doing. Includes the Shared Resources stimulation mechanism. Participants earn Miles Credits 🔗.

2. Real Estate Programme Market

Valorisation of empty properties through Senior/Junior incubator teams. 8 competence modules (photography, pricing, furnishing, guest management, contracts, legal, community governance, reporting). Creates local WikiDeal real estate agencies. Earns both Cash Rewards (no guarantee*)* 💰 and Miles Credits 🔗. Full details →

3. Eco-Village Transition Programme Social

Transition to cooperative living in eco-villages. Combines housing contracts, volunteering agreements, freelance service provision, and project incubation into a global experience. Social management contracts: meeting minutes templates, task assignment/validation apps, community governance tools. Multi-marketplace by nature.

4. Education Programme Social

Learn a skill AND earn Credits simultaneously. Competence credits validated through practice. Credits usable in Rings of Trust. Covers digital skills, languages, trades, social entrepreneurship. Combines tutoring marketplace, certification process, and peer-review validation into one programme.

5. Rings & Alliances Programme Technology

User Groups forming alliances and Rings of Trust. Contracts for shared Miles Credits 🔗 usage rights. Interoperability agreements with usage coefficients (1–10). Encourages cooperation over forking. Includes the Miles Market valuation mechanism. See Rings of Trust → | Miles Market →

6. Recycling & Upcycling Programme Retail

8. Planned Obsolescence Programme Market

9. Microcredit Programme Market

Transparent microcredit circles and mutual aid networks (tontines). Auditable contracts, proper arbitration framework. Combines loan marketplace, savings circles, and peer-guarantee systems. Community earns Miles Credits 🔗; lenders receive Cash Rewards (no guarantee*)* 💰 over time. Full details →

10. Transport Programme Market

Migration of transport cooperatives to WikiDeal Infrastructure. Includes ridesharing, vehicle sharing, and cooperative transport services — not traditional taxi dispatch.

11. Community Migrations Programme Technology

Observatory and support for migrating entire communities to WikiDeal. Assessment, contract mapping, legal review, technical migration, and ongoing support. Combines migration tools, legal checklists, and onboarding journeys into a complete programme. Full details →

12. Miles Market Programme Market NEW

Algorithmic valuation of Miles Credits 🔗. Double indicator: value of service/good × availability/frequency. The Miles Market determines fair exchange rates based on supply and demand across the ecosystem — stimulating but not speculative, because everything is transparent. Full details →

Note on Marketplaces vs. Programmes

The following are marketplaces (services) used within programmes, not standalone programmes:

Babysitting — a marketplace service within the Volunteering and Education programmes (pilot use case)
Amicable Separation — a legal mediation marketplace service, not a full programme
Pet Sitting, Tutoring, Music — marketplace portals within broader programmes

The distinction matters: a marketplace handles one type of Transaction; a programme orchestrates multiple marketplaces to create a global life experience (housing + activities + training + governance).

How Programmes Work

Each programme has defined steps with automated guidance (forms, checklists, photo evidence)
Participants earn Cash Rewards (no guarantee*)* 💰 or Miles Credits 🔗 at each validated step
Quality is ensured through Success Indicators and ISO-style Quality Criteria (see Success Criteria)
Programmes are managed by User Groups with elected delegates and operational bureaus
WikiDeal platform provides the tools; the community provides the energy

Cash Rewards are subject to platform revenue availability. No financial return is guaranteed. See Terms & Conditions and Rewards Explained.

WikiDeal's founding research question: Can users own, run and sustain a global marketplace?

Self-Financing: Every Programme Can Launch Its Own Funding

Each programme and User Group has access to the same funding methodology as WikiDeal Core:

Its own bonding curve for early funders
Cash Rewards (no guarantee*) and Miles Credits for funders
The Boost mechanism adjusting Cash/Miles ratios based on real needs
Community pool allocation (indirect — varies with Boost mechanism)

This fractal model is what makes WikiDeal scalable: each User Group is a micro-WikiDeal with the same transparent, at-cost, non-speculative economics.
