Eventify's Gamification module turns event participation into a competitive, rewarding experience. Attendees complete challenges to earn points, climb a real-time leaderboard, and win badges, certificates, or prizes — all without leaving the app.
How to access: Dashboard → Engagement → Gamification
Complete the following setup steps in order before publishing challenges to attendees. Attendees cannot see the Gamification section until at least one active challenge exists.
Rewards Settings is where you set the text attendees see when they open the Gamification section in the app.
Visibility controls which type of challenges attendees can see in the app.
Attendees cannot see the Gamification section in the app until at least one challenge is active.
Once at least one active challenge exists, the Gamification section becomes visible in the event app. Open the app (or your app preview) to confirm:
| Setting | Where | What It Controls |
|---|---|---|
| Overview Text | Rewards Settings | Heading attendees see in the app |
| Rules Notes | Rewards Settings | Participation rules and prize info |
| Visibility | Manage Challenges gear | Which challenge types appear to attendees |
| Gamification Sounds | Event Settings | Audio feedback when attendees earn points |
| Grouped Leaderboard | Event Settings | Groups leaderboard results by category or team |
Q: What happens if I save Rewards Settings but don't create any challenges?
A: Attendees still cannot see the Gamification section. The section only becomes visible once at least one challenge is active.
Q: Are Gamification Sounds enabled by default?
A: Sound settings are configured in the shared Event Settings. Check there to enable or disable audio feedback for point awards.
Q: Is Gamification available on all Eventify plans?
A: Core gamification (QR challenges, leaderboard) is available on standard plans. Advanced features like Trivia and Quest (team-based) may require a higher plan. Check your plan features in the admin panel.
Q: Can I run Gamification on a virtual event?
A: Yes. Most challenge types work for virtual events. QR scanning requires attendees to have the app and a scannable QR code — for virtual events, QR codes can be embedded in digital materials or screens.
