Benefits of Reviewers

Receive a certificate

Upon completion of any qualified peer review assignment, an official peer review certificate is issued to the reviewer. This document provides formal recognition of scholarly evaluation services and constitutes verifiable evidence of academic contribution. Reviewers may leverage this credential to enhance their professional portfolios or substantiate peer review proficiency in contexts including academic promotion assessments and competitive funding applications.

Redeem points for cash

ARES System formally recognizes reviewers’ expertise while upholding peer review ethics, providing tangible compensation for time invested in advancing scholarly quality. Reviewers earn redeemable points based on their contributions (see Point Reward Rules[OEP1] ). Upon reaching the minimum threshold (50+ points), flexible cash redemption (1 point = 1 USD) is available through ethically structured honoraria that are institutionally disassociated from editorial decisions. All rewards feature global accessibility, including bank transfer, PayPal, Alipay, or credit card payments (American Express) with automatic currency conversion.
