The same engine runs a gym streak board, a referral board, or a sales floor board — you're just pointing it at a different number. Here's what actually happens at each step.
Rankboard doesn't care where a number comes from — it just needs one to rank. Most businesses start with whatever's easiest and connect a real system later.
Type a name and a score into a simple table. This is how most boards start — no setup, no integration, live in minutes.
Already tracking scores in a spreadsheet? Upload it and Rankboard keeps the board in sync each time you re-upload.
Connect Square, Toast, Mindbody, Glofox, Shopify, or your own system through the API, and scores update themselves with zero manual entry. Manual entry and CSV import are ready today while these connections are being built.
Wherever people already look is where the board goes. No new destination to send anyone to.
One line of code drops a live board anywhere on your site. It resizes to fit and re-renders itself as scores change — no page refresh needed.
Open a browser tab on a screen you already have. Rankboard is built to sit on a TV all day: no cursor, no idle timeout, no login screen.
Text or post a link straight to the board — handy for a monthly challenge you want people checking from their phones.
A leaderboard without a payoff is just a list. Rankboard fires the reward automatically the moment someone earns it.
Hit #1, crack the top 10%, or beat a personal best — the code, discount, or shoutout goes out automatically by email today, no one has to remember to send it. SMS triggers are on the roadmap.
Milestones show up right on the board itself — a flame icon, a streak count, a "new personal best" flag next to a name.
Push the event into whatever you already use for rewards or notifications — Slack, a loyalty platform, your own backend.
Manual entry and CSV import work from day one on every plan — no waiting on anything below. These are the connections on our integration roadmap; we'll add each as pilot customers need it.
Most businesses have a board live in under five minutes with manual entry. A POS or API integration usually takes longer — plan on 20–30 minutes with someone who knows your system.
No. The board is something people look at, not something they install. If you run a referral or reading-streak board where customers submit their own activity, that's a simple web form — still no app.
Yes, depending on plan. Starter includes one board; Growth includes three; Pro is unlimited. A lot of businesses start with one and add a second once it's working.
Totally fine — manual entry and CSV import are full features, not a fallback. Plenty of boards run on nothing but a front-desk person typing in a name.
Five minutes to set up. No app for your customers, no credit card to start.
