Changing habits requires effort.
Our platform makes that effort attractive, engaging and rewarding.
BetterPoints technology is designed to drive multi-faceted, complex interventions that accelerate engagement in campaigns and motivate ongoing participation, anywhere and at scale.
Inspiring behaviour change
Whether you want people to walk to the park, cycle to work, use public transport in town, attend events, engage with a consultation, recycle more… BetterPoints campaigns motivate them to do it and make it fun.
How we do it
The BetterPoints mobile app combines tracking, motion sensing and user interaction with sophisticated server side algorithms that verify activities and characteristics.
We then link this information to different types and levels of incentives that are awarded to people when they meet certain behavioural goals, such as exercising, completing an activity or trying something new.
We can combine the goals and rewards in myriad ways to meet the client’s objectives and budget.
How it works
Each intervention is delivered as a core challenge that typically lasts for 3, 6, 12 or 36 months and uses a mix of goals and rewards to deliver your objectives.
Within the core challenge there can be any number of mini challenges, games and events to maintain engagement. All challenges work by cycling repeatedly through four key steps:
By taking advantage of technology like this, BetterPoints can target incentives and communications to the right people at the right time.

Medals
Award medals for achieving goals.
For example, a Challenge Player might win a bronze medal for exercising once a week, a silver medal for exercising three times a week and a gold medal for doing it every day.
Leaderboards
Arouse competitive streaks!
Pitch players against each other and watch them jostle for top postion.
Prize draws
Offer entries into a virtual tombola.
Players can earn BetterTickets, which are entered into a draw for BetterPoints or physical prizes.

There’s strength in numbers!
Allow players to form teams so goals can be reached and rewarded through their combined effort.
