Gamification on Mighty Networks

Mighty Networks does not currently have any native gamification features.

However, they announced on Mighty Community that they have added gamification to the product roadmap.

From the response, it appears that they will introduce leaderboards and badges soon.

Mighty Networks Plan for Gamification

As the platform does not have any native gamification features, you will need a third-party app and use integration software such as Zapier.

Because you need API integration, you will need a Mighty Networks Business plan or above – the entry-level plan doesn’t allow you to use API integration.

The most expensive plan, Mighty Pro, also includes API access and supports gamification app integration.

Subscription Plan	Price per Month	Price per Month (Paid Annually)	Supports Gamification Apps (API Integration)
The Community Plan	$39	$33	❌
The Business Plan	$199	$99	✅
Mighty Pro	Not disclosed	Not disclosed	✅

Apps for Mighty Networks Gamification

Pointagram is the most widely used gamification app on Mighty Networks; after subscribing, you can use Zapier to connect it to Mighty Networks.

It has a range of key features that drive up engagement and the amount of time spent in your community and course:

Competition – Users can create leaderboards and present trophies to the winners of competitions.
Recognition and Engagement – The platform can allow you to give out badges for completing certain activities. These can include finishing courses and being a member for a certain period of time.
Reward Store – Community and course owners can open a store; when a member has achieved a certain number of rewards, they can exchange them for prizes.

Pointagram has two pricing structures, you can opt to pay per user or per account.

Pro-Tip As you’re a community and course owner, it will be more economical to opt for its account-based pricing plans.

The Pointagram subscription prices range between €59-€299, depending on your needs.

How to Install Gamification Apps to Mighty Networks

For this integration example, we will use Pointagram since it’s the only advertised gamification app that integrates with Mighty Networks.

Note! Before you start, you will need a Mighty Networks Business plan, Zapier, and Pointagram.

Go to Zapier and find the Mighty Networks + Pointagram Integration page by searching.
Then, select Connect Mighty Networks with Pointagram.
You’ll then be prompted to log in to your Zapier account if you haven’t already.

First, name the Zap by editing the top left-hand corner name.
You’ll then need to sign into your Mighty Networks and Pointagram accounts. Select the orange button, then complete the sign-in process for both accounts.

The next step is to select your Mighty Networks trigger. You can select from Course Progress Update, Member Action, New Content, and Event RSVP.

You’ll then need to select your action – this is what you’d like Pointagram to do when the trigger is set off. Actions can include Add Points, Create Player, Update Player Data, and Find Player.
