What this gate checks
The receipt total must be at least $5 USD to prevent streak/submission gaming with trivial purchases.
Under the hood: OCR-extracted total amount converted to USD via the receipt currency. Must be $5.00 or greater.
Common failure reasons
- Receipt total under $5
- OCR misread the total — small font, smudged ink
- Foreign currency conversion put the total below $5
How to pass this gate
Submit a real gas fill-up of $5 or more. The threshold is intentionally low so motorcycles and small fills still qualify.
