1. When you are planning to use you Unlimited plans, please make sure to create an Organization

Step 2: Configure the event and rules

Onboarding rules

Click on Settings to edit the settings and rules of the event. You can modify the start and end dates or configure the rules of the event.

Some commonly used configuration settings are:

Start and end dates of the event
Do you allow manual entry?
Would you like to use step conversion (PRO only)
Do you want to ask users to select their team preference?

Artwork and branding (PRO only)

To ensure the challenge matches your corporate identity we can customize the look and feel of the challenge. The most important information we need is:

Brand color: This color is used to customize various elements in the app.
Logo: a square image (displayed on white) of at least 500x500 pixels. The image will be resized to fit and center.
Background: a rectangular image of about 1150x300 pixels. Due to the variety of devices on which this is shown the image might not entirely be visible. Keep padding to ensure any content might be clipped of from all sizes. Especially on the left side as the logo will overlap the background.

You can upload this information on the Design screen on the admin dashboard.

Step 3: Add leaderboards

You can add one or multiple leaderboards to your events. Leaderboards can either be for individual results or team results. There are many different types of leaderboards available to choose from.

Step 4: Publish the event

Publish your event and purchase a users (payment can be done by credit card through a secure Stripe checkout page).

You can optionally add a service plan if you'd like us to complete the configuration of your event.

Please note that you can always add more users at a later time if you're not sure yet on how many users will join the event.

Step 5: Invite users

Copy the join link and QR code from the admin dashboard to invite your team to join the newly created event.
