Abstract

An exchange system and method for exchanging positive behavior for items of monetary or social value. The exchange system uses databases that allow automated positive behavior point deposits to be uploaded into individual participant accounts and an interface that allows registered participants to see the value of the behavior points earned and deposited in individual accounts. The system uses an automated inventory management system of items for youth acquisition, an interactive interface displaying items available to participating youth and means of acquisition. The exchange system processes youth value exchange requests directly from the interface and maintains accounting of the transaction.
