Gamification


Gamify your community and courses! You can award points to build community and boost engagement.

Adding Gamification to your Groups


This can be added while creating a new group, or to an existing group.

When creating a new group


The Gamification option will be given on Step 3, during the creation of your new group.
Toggle on the switch for Add gamification to group.



To an existing group:



From your SocialGlow dashboard, click Groups.
Under the Actions column, click the Group Settings icon (looks like a gear) beside the group you want to add this feature to.



Navigate to the Step 3 tab near the top of the page.
Toggle on the switch for Add gamification to group.

Exclude Admins and Moderators (optional)


This option is available if you do not want the actions of you and other admins/moderators of this group to earn points to be counted towards the leaderboard.



Settings


You can create custom settings for this group, and any courses added to this group (if courses are included in your subscription).

Group Gamification

You're able to adjust the amount of points given for each action listed here.



Course Gamification

The amount of points given can be adjusted here as well.



Once finished, click Next Step at the bottom of the page,
Scroll to the bottom of the next page, and click Save Changes.

Group Members' view


When any of the members of that group complete any of the actions you've assigned points to, they'll receive a notification of those points being added to their account.



Leaderboard

There is a Leaderboard tab at the top of the group. This shows the top 3 members with the most points, and ranks all other members who have earned points in that group.



Points Earned

Each group member can view the actions that have earned them points by clicking the Ticket icon at the top of the the group.



Rewarding and Redeeming Points



Rewarding Points

This can be helpful if there are additional reasons you want to manually reward a member with points.

From your SocialGlow Dashboard, click Groups.
Click the number listed under the Participants column, beside the group the member is in.



Find the member's name on this list, and click the amount of points earned, under the Points column.



Click the Reward Points button.



Enter the amount of points you want to redeem, along with the reason you're rewarding these points.



Those points will immediately be added to that group member's point total.

Redeeming Points

As the Admin, you can redeem a group member's points for a reward of your choice.
This could be used a variety of different ways. Some examples of items your group members could earn with points :

A coaching session with you
Free shipping
A personalized plan in your field (ie: a fitness/financial/health plan)
Access to premium content
A discount on items you sell

While SocialGlow doesn't facilitate the physical exchange of any rewards at this time, we do provide the platform to use earned points for the digital transaction.

From your SocialGlow Dashboard, click Groups.
Click the number listed under the Participants column, beside the group the member is in.



Find the member's name on this list, and click the amount of points earned, under the Points column.



Click the Redeem Points button.



Fill in the amount of points you are redeeming, along with the reward they are receiving.



You'll want to be certain to physically send or fulfill the reward given.

Those points will immediately be deducted from their redeemable points - however, this will not affect their amount of points earned total (on the leaderboard).
