Leaderboards enhance participant engagement in gamification by fostering a sense of competition and social comparison, motivating participants to strive for excellence and outperform their peers.
They create a dynamic and interactive environment, encouraging friendly rivalry and a desire to climb the ranks, thereby increasing the overall excitement and investment in the experience.
Additionally, leaderboards serve as a visual representation of achievement, providing participants with a clear benchmark for success and recognition within a group.
The leaderboard can be found in the Achievements popup
For clients with the Onboarding framework (or by special request) the leaderboard icon can appear in the top toolbar.
The leaderboard is shown as a popup. For administrators seeking a list of points per user use the dashboard Achievements report.
