Filminity Virtual Box Office (VBO) Policy
Effective Date: 15 september 2025
Filminity’s Virtual Box Office (VBO) is a fictional, platform-only performance system that recreates a theatrical-style experience using BoxoCoins (BXC). It is designed for recognition, analytics, and practice — not real money or revenue.
1. Purpose
VBO simulates box office performance for independent films. Filmmakers can see:
- Ticket-style metrics
- Gross & Net collections
- Budget comparisons
- Performance bonuses
Note: BoxoCoins (BXC) are not currency. They cannot be exchanged, withdrawn, or treated as real-world revenue.
2. Key Definitions
- BXC (BoxoCoin): Fictional performance unit.
- Seat: One verified view counted like a theatre ticket.
- Gross BXC: Total before filters.
- Net BXC: Cleaned and official number after filtering.
- Budget Target: Film’s budget converted to BXC.
- BPI (Boxo Performance Index): Net ÷ Budget Target × 100.
- Bonuses: Extra BXC from ratings, team rank, or star value.
3. Basic Earning Rule
Every valid Seat = 5 BXC. Example: One complete watch = 5 BXC Gross.
Important: This does not represent real ticket sales or money. Neither Filminity nor filmmakers earn revenue from VBO. It is a fictional practice system for professional-style performance tracking only.
4. Budget Conversion & Targets
Budgets are converted to BXC for fair benchmarking:
- ₹10 = 1 BXC (default)
- ₹100,000 budget → 10,000 BXC target
BPI Formula: Net BXC ÷ Budget Target × 100
5. Gross → Net Cleaning
Gross is shown live, but only Net BXC counts officially. Adjustments remove:
- Bot/Idle sessions
- Repeated re-watches (same day)
- Very short sessions
- Daily/session abuse attempts
6. Bonuses & Multipliers
- Rating Bonus: S (×1.5), F (×1.35), R (×1.20), C (×1.10), E (×1.05), X (×1.00), Z (×0.90)
- Top-10 Bonus: +7% if team members are in Filminity Top 10
- StarPower: Small multiplier for verified stars
- Festival/Release Boost: e.g., Premiere Days ×1.25
7. Final Collections & Labels
The Final BXC (after multipliers) appears on each film’s page as its VBO Collection.
- < 70% → Flop
- 70–99% → Average
- 100–149% → Hit
- 150–199% → Super Hit
- 200–299% → Blockbuster
- ≥ 300% → All-Time Blockbuster / Cult
VBO provides filmmakers with transparent, trade-style recognition while keeping it fictional, gamified, and motivational.
