Overview

On Count.It group admins add set goals and add rewards to a challenge via the Challenge Setup ⚙️ screen. You can add as many rewards as you like. You can also add, remove, or update your challenge rewards at any time.

  • On the challenge screen, tap the "i" button to open the challenge info screen.

  • Tap the pencil icon to enter the "edit" screen for your challenge.

  • Scroll down on the edit screen, and tap on the Rewards option

On the Rewards Settings screen, you will see any rewards you have created. You can create a new reward by tapping on the "Add Reward" button.

On the next screen, tap the top dropdown to select whether your reward will be for individual challenge participants, teams, or for the group as a whole.

Individual & Team Goals

For individuals and teams, there are a number of possible goals to achieve, and you can assign rewards to one or more of those goals:

  • Challenge Rank

  • Finish

  • Stages 1-4

(Note: While the type of goals are the same for both individuals and teams, the actual goals you create will be different!)

For example, you might add a reward for every individual who crosses the finish line, a.k.a. "Finish." If you have a large group, you could choose to do a random drawing from among those finishers for one or more rewards.

You might also set up rewards for the individuals or teams whose final "Challenge Rank" was 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, or perhaps the same reward fo the "Top 3."

You can also assign rewards to a specific stage, so there is something for people or teams who only make it part of the way. (Note: Every challenge path is divided into four quarters, i.e. stages 1-4.)

Once you select the target goal, you can then add a reward description. Typical rewards can be gift cards, trophies, or even a free lunch. When done, click the "Save" button at the top of the screen.

Group Goals & Charitable Challenges

If you select the "Group" option, you can set a target for the percentage of challenge participants that cross the finish line in the challenge. For example, setting the group target to 100% means that every challenge participant must cross the finish line to unlock the group prize.

Many groups like to assign a charitable donation "prize" to a group goal. For example, the admin may create a goal-and-reward as follows: "If 75% of us make it to the finish, Acme Corp. will give $500 to charity."
