Leaderboards software program that drives long-lasting results
Leaderboards system to power up a successful gamified loyalty program
Configure leaderboards based on spending or behavior to keep your customers engaged
Motivate members to actively participate in your loyalty program through leaderboards that provide an element of fun and competition.
Set up rankings for top users based on any activity, such as total spending during Black Friday, reviews written about a product, or consecutive logins in a month.
Use leaderboards to engage and reward the most active members
Recognize your most active customers with gamification mechanics. Invite users to compete in leaderboards by location or custom attribute — each group maintaining its own ranking.
Create engaging campaigns, such as Top 3 athletes per city receiving 100 points, a VIP badge, and a tier upgrade.
Boost engagement of different groups with tailored leaderboards
Guide users to dominate the rankings by integrating brand-relevant actions – shopping, exercising, or any tracked behavior – into their progress. Group members by location or custom attribute (football club, favorite band, and so on) so they compete locally, not against the full base. Harness their competitive drive while cultivating a powerful sense of urgency.
For instance, spike engagement by emailing all participants 12 hours before a leaderboard closes – giving each local group tailored, actionable tips to secure first place.
Introduce a powerful leaderboard into your ecosystems efficiently without the resource strain of building from scratch
Minimize costs with leaderboards that reward only top customers
Use leaderboards as a cost-effective and targeted engagement mechanism. Avoid margin-eroding promotions by fostering long-term behavioral patterns.
Reward only top performers, trimming down costs and causing a FOMO effect with non-invited users.
Introduce leaderboards and rankings on any web or mobile app
Set up and manage dynamic rankings of your loyalty program members across web, mobile, and more via API, webhooks, and data import.
Have a dedicated view of the leaderboard in your mobile app synced live with a ranking widget on a dedicated landing page.
Use leaderboard data to trigger or enrich the systems, such as CDP and BI
Collect client information automatically via admin panel dashboards and dedicated API endpoints, making it easy to enrich your CDP.
For example, trigger automatic email campaigns to users who move down the leaderboard, directing them to engage more.

Leaderboards are useful in multiple industries. Here are some use cases:
– Retail/E-commerce "Top Spender Challenge": Ranks customers by points earned from purchases to boost basket values and repeat visits.
– Gig economy "Star Performer Ranking": Ranks drivers/couriers of specific cities by completed trips or ratings to motivate better service and activity.
– SaaS/Product-led "Platform Champion Board": Awards points for feature use or new user invitations to drive product adoption and highlight power users.
– Health engagement/Wellness programs: Companies can implement leaderboards with their users or within internal platforms to gamify wellness challenges (e.g., steps taken, healthy habits) or training completion rates, fostering friendly competition.
Yes. Leaderboard sub-groups split participants into independent rankings within a single campaign — by city, province, country, postal code, or any custom member attribute.
Each sub-group has its own Top-1000 ranking and reward distribution, so members compete against local peers without requiring separate campaigns.
