Overview
Digital badges are a key component of partner recognition and gamification within a partner program. They provide a tangible representation of a partner's status, achievements, or specialized skills, which can be displayed on their portal profile or marketing materials. By creating and assigning badges, administrators can visually differentiate partners, incentivize progress through tiers, and acknowledge specific contributions, fostering a sense of accomplishment and encouraging continued engagement.
This functionality supports the overall partner lifecycle by integrating with partner tier management and regional program structures. Administrators can define the criteria for earning a badge, such as achieving a certain partner tier or operating within a specific region, and then configure the badge's validity period. The ability to upload custom badge artwork ensures that the visual representation aligns with the program's branding and recognition strategy.

Adding or Editing Badge Details
The Add/Edit a Badge form allows administrators to define and configure badges that can be awarded to partners. Badges serve as visual recognition for partner achievements, performance, or completion of specific milestones within the partner program. This screen enables the creation of new badges or modification of existing ones, including setting their name, associated partner tier, regional applicability, and an expiry date. A badge description provides context for partners, and a badge template file must be uploaded to define its visual representation. Properly configured badges can be used to incentivize partner engagement and highlight their progress within the program.
Fill in the required details for the badge in the 'Badge Information' section and upload the badge template file.
