Seen a "Linden Grant" in your transaction history but confused what it means?

A Linden Grant is not like a grant one would receive for educational or research purposes.

The term Linden Grant refers to the bonuses and stipends which the system automatically grants a Resident for upgrading to a Premium account and storing billing information.

You receive the grant 45 days after storing your card information and upgrading to Premium. You get a full grant of L$1250 for this:

• L$250 for your card details.
• L$1000 for choosing Premium.

These details appear on your transaction history as a Linden Grant.
