Earn a top contributor badge in a Facebook group
Earn a top contributor badge in a Facebook group
You can earn a top contributor badge
in a Facebook group by being one of the most active participants in the group. The more you participate in a group and receive replies and reactions, the more points you’ll earn, and the more likely you’ll be to earn the top contributor badge. Members, admins and moderators can earn the badge.
When you earn a top contributor badge, it will appear by your name on your posts and comments and on your group member profile.
How to earn a top contributor badge
You can earn points and increase your chances of earning the top contributor badge in a group by:
Receiving replies and/or reactions on your posts
Receiving replies and/or reactions on your comments
Being an admin or moderator (If you want to become an admin or moderator, you can send a message to a current admin and ask them to invite you to become an admin or moderator
.)
Being a group expert (If you want to become a group expert, you can send a message to a current admin and ask them to invite you to become a group expert
.)
Troubleshooting
If you had a top contributor badge but no longer see it, it might be because:
Others in the group have become more active than you in the group.
The group admins turned off the Contributions feature.
If you know you’re the top contributor but haven’t earned the badge, it might be because:
The group admins turned off the Contributions feature.
It’s a public group and you aren’t a member
or admin/moderator of the group.
More information
If you earn the top contributor badge but don’t want to display it, learn how to manage which badges appear by your name
.
If you’re a group admin, you can turn the top contributor badge on or off by turning the Contributions feature on or off

You must be an adult, based on the laws in your country, in order to buy, sell or see listings in a Facebook buy and sell group (example: at least 18 years old in the United States or at least 20 years old in Thailand). If you’re not an adult, you can still participate in the group, outside of listings.
Features unavailable for commerce groups
To make sure our commerce policies are met and to help keep groups safe, groups focused on buying, selling or promoting products will not have certain features. This includes anonymous posts.
Note that commerce groups in some countries might not have access to Community Chats
.
All listings to buy, sell and promote products must meet our commerce policy guidelines. Learn more about our commerce policies

Groups focused on buying, selling or promoting products are subject to our Commerce Policies
and may have different features available for admins. You must be an adult, based on the laws in your country, in order to buy, sell or see listings in a Facebook buy and sell group (example: at least 18 years old in the United States or at least 20 years old in Thailand). If you’re not an adult, you can still participate in the group, outside of listings.
You can only sell things in groups that have the buy and sell feature added. You must be an admin of the group to add the buy and sell group feature

Both buyers and sellers are responsible for things sold in a Facebook buy and sell group or on Marketplace.
Buyers:
Any sale made through a Facebook buy and sell group or an individual seller on Marketplace is between you and the seller. If you have any questions about the things you're buying in a Facebook buy and sell group, try messaging the seller
. You can also report a seller
to Facebook.
Sellers:
Please describe the items you're selling clearly and make sure you're following both our Terms of Service
, Community Standards
and Commerce Policies
. Also, in certain countries (such as Germany, Austria and Switzerland), people selling for business purposes are required by law to provide information about their identity, including their name, street address, email, registration number and/or VAT number. If you’re not sure if this requirement applies to you, you may wish to seek the advice of a qualified attorney with local expertise.
Keep in mind that:
Items sold on Facebook must follow our Commerce Policies
.
Items purchased with checkout with shipping may be covered with Purchase Protection
.
Facebook may limit the frequency of listings to prevent misuse of buy and sell groups or Marketplace.
Select rights owners may be able to search buy and sell group posts to prevent the misuse of intellectual property on Facebook
.
