The method includes receiving at a server parameters of a challenge sent from an input device, including a reward associated with the challenge stored in memory of the server. Transmitting details of the challenge to a communication device, via a network interface, enables access by a subscriber. A verification signal is received at the server from a verification device verifying com- pletion or part completion of a challenge by said subscriber, for updat- ing the record associated with the subscriber to include the reward. The challenge may be an overall challenge or a sub- challenge of an overall challenge and the reward may be virtual points, a prize, credit, access to exclusive opportunities, or a combination thereof.
