# Why are my reward tokens not increasing when I search?

Presearch users can collect 0.01 PRE tokens per search, up to a max of 0.25 PRE tokens per day between 12:00 (midnight) and 12:00 midnight UTC.&#x20;

To check to see if you've reached your daily max of 0.25 PRE tokens (25 searches), click on your token count (top-right corner or [Presearch.com](http://presearch.com/) home page), you will see a page listing your transactions - if you see at least 25 searches today (UTC), you have reached your max of 25 tokens until tomorrow (UTC).

If you'd like to increase the quantity of PRE you earn per search, you can participate in the [Search Staking](https://news.presearch.io/introducing-search-staking-21b94285c2fb) program.&#x20;

If you haven't reached the daily limit, there could be two other reasons your PRE reward tokens are not increasing:

1\) Your account is restricted. If your reward balance is red in the top right corner on [Presearch.com](https://presearch.com/) and shows 'restricted', please send an email to <support@presearch.io>..

2\) You are not using Dsearch or the Presearch Engine as your search provider. Searches outside our ecosystem (E.g. Google or DuckDuckGo) are not rewarded.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.presearch.io/presearch-engine/faq/why-are-my-reward-tokens-not-increasing-when-i-search.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
