Bounty reward amounts

Question

I was about to offer a bounty on a question and noticed that the 50 point bounty is not available anymore.

I think before I was offered the option between 50, 100, and 150. Now it is 100 - 500 in various increments.

Is this because I have a bounty out already, or was there a site wide change?

Answer 1

Two factors will increase the minumum bounty.

• If you answered the question, you start at 100 for a bounty.
• If you offer multiple bounties on one post, it increases exact iteration.
