# Levels & Badges Tools

### Overview

MangoApps makes work fun with a built-in **Levels & Badges** system that rewards you for your day-to-day activity on the platform. As you interact, collaborate, and contribute, you earn **points**, unlock **levels**, and collect **badges** — all visible on your profile for a bit of friendly competition and motivation.

### **Understanding Points, Levels, and Badges**

#### **How Points Work**

Points in MangoApps are earned through active participation on your network. Activities are grouped into three categories based on frequency: **frequent** (low-point), **occasional** (medium-point), and **sporadic** (high-point).&#x20;

<table data-full-width="true"><thead><tr><th></th><th>Everyday Activities (Frequent)</th><th>Less Common Activities (Occasional)</th><th>Big/Important Activities (Sporadic)</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Points Earned</strong></td><td>1 point</td><td>5 point</td><td>10 points</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Daily Cap</strong></td><td>10 points</td><td>10 points</td><td>10 points</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Activities</strong></td><td>These include actions like posting updates, commenting, liking, uploading files, following colleagues, completing to-dos, and sending recognitions.</td><td>These involve actions like posting questions, creating polls or events, sharing ideas, installing apps, and receiving mentions or recognition.</td><td>These include creating wikis, posts, projects, departments, templates, groups, completing milestones, or providing feedback to MangoApps support.</td></tr></tbody></table>

To ensure fairness and prevent misuse, there are daily point limits for each activity type. Points are awarded instantly when an activity is completed and are accompanied by a visual animation for immediate feedback.

#### **Levels**

Levels represent your overall engagement in MangoApps and increase as you earn more points. Advancing to higher levels requires not only more points but also **consistent activity**.&#x20;

If you're inactive for more than **five business days**, you may need to earn additional points to reach the next level. However, your existing points **are never lost**.

***

#### **Badges**

Badges are surprise rewards given for completing specific actions in MangoApps. While they don’t directly impact your level, earning badges often involves activities that also generate points.&#x20;

Badges are permanent achievements and cannot be deleted or altered by an admin.

***

### **FAQ**

**Q. Why didn’t I earn a badge like my colleague?**

A. Due to **daily point limits**, you may not receive a badge if you exceed the allowed activity threshold — even if you performed similar actions.

***

**Q. What happens if I delete an activity?**

A. Deleted activities **don’t earn points** and existing points are not reversed.

***

**Q. Do badges help me level up faster?**

A. No — badges are separate from points. However, earning many badges means you are probably completing more point-earning actions.

***

**Q. Do guest users earn Levels & Badeges?**

A. No - guest users do not accrue points, earn badges, or feature on the leaderboard.
