The metaverse is a platform that enables players to “play, earn, and connect”. Players are able to connect with each other socially, but one of the biggest factors that can connect people and communities is commerce. Commerce creates mutual economic dependence and wealth generation — the trade increases incomes, and jobs across the metaverse, while giving residents access to a wider variety of goods and services at better prices. Learn more about the Upland economy.
In Upland, commerce begins with office structures, and players creating bonds between different cities and neighborhoods. Creating offices and building reciprocal connections, neighborhoods develop stronger commerce scores, increasing their ability to support trade and attract activity. These connections shape how effectively goods move between neighborhoods and help establish them as destinations, not just for trade, but as places where uppies choose to live, work, and participate in the economy.
