Leaderboard Points are tallied on leaderboards accessible to the Dynamic Signal website or mobile app and are earned in the following ways.
- When Members sign up
- When Members share content posted on the Dynamic Signal platform
- When Members submit content to Dynamic Signal
- When any Member post gets interaction (clicks, replies, favorites, etc.) This refers to interaction on shared content outside of the platform.
- When a Member responds to a Quick Poll or Survey

note
When using the native sharing features of the platform (notably for Facebook or Xing), points may not be awarded.Points are generally tied to rewards or recognition to drive increased member engagement. You can customize both the number of points and how points are tied to actions based on your objectives for your Community via Admin > Advanced > Post Defaults. There is even a manual redemption mechanism that allows you to treat points as a currency.
