Abstract
An example system and method may provide a media channel rewards application with live polling. An example system may measure a viewing period of the media stream, determine a quantity of digital points respective to a user profile and the media stream based on the measured viewing period, and store a digital record associated with the user profile and the media channel, which digital record indicates the quantity of digital points. In some instances, the system may generate a graphical overlay for a media stream of a media channel and provide a graphical interface in the overlay based on the quantity of digital points associated with the user profile and the media stream.
