In a new Shoutem version, we have a feature called badges. What are badges, one could ask? Badges are “rewards” for the most active members in a certain Shoutem network. This way we encourage users to use our location-based networks even more. There are 13 badges available to earn, and in this post we are going to present you all of them.

Users will be able to earn these badges using our mobile applications (iPhone, Blackberry, Android in a next couple of months) and a web interface. To prevent cheating, we decided not to support a web check-in, so users will be able to earn their “check-in” badges only if they use their mobile phones to access Shoutem networks.

Administrators can also change the names of these badges, and their description in their admin page. Just go to Settings –> Languages –> and edit your language.

    SHOUT’EM must have given lot of thought while making all the BADGEs. Fantastic job. These badges are not only innovative but also totally different from other sites like foursquare.com & co.

    Big Question: Can Network owner be able to change the BADGEs according to their needs to complement their sites. If possible, then HOW ??
    Thank you shout’em from tinySCRAP.com

    For now, we don’t have the option to customize the badges. In a future, we might enable this if we see it’s really necessary.

    Thank you for your comment.

    I really feel like a huge opportunity is being missed when you talk about custom badges and things of the sort.

    We are currently trying to revive a city with nightlife implementation and something like a custom badge is just what we need. We are faced with people who aren’t looking to go out or struggle finding information in regards to what is going around them. A network we are working on setting would do just that. We have rewards customized for our market. We can reward people for going to certain places and show the area how social media can enhance everyday life.

    Keep us posted… But that’s what we are truly looking for.
