2.2. Configure the virality score.

In a ranking-by-points contest, this is the most important part of the setup. Here you configure how many points to award for the different actions participants can perform or achieve.

Go to the 'Virality score' section of the campaign editor and activate the checkbox to calculate the viral score of each user.

1. Points for entering the campaign. You can set:

• A fixed number (the same points are assigned to all participants).

• A range of points, for example, 10-50 (a random number within the range will be assigned).

• Several numbers separated by commas, for example, 10,30,50 (one of them will be assigned randomly).

2. Points for each referred user. A referred user is one who participates through an invitation or a direct link from a participant.

3. Points for each vote obtained.

Reward virality. We recommend giving more chances of winning to participants who recruit the most users.

2.3. Other configurations.

2.3.1. Ranking of participants.

In order for users to know the points accumulated by other participants, it is necessary to make the list of participants public.

To enable the public ranking of participants, follow the steps in the tutorial How to display a public entry list or ranking of participants.

When setting it up, remember to:

• Display scores publicly.

• Sort participations by total score.

In addition, if you are distributing points for referrals and/or votes, you can include links to show scores based on the referrals or votes obtained by participants.

2.3.2. Winner selection.

Once the participation period is over, you will be able to select winners. You can choose them randomly by filtering the users who have obtained the most points.

In the participant list you will see each participant's data along with the total points they have obtained.

To start the selection, consult the tutorial: How to select winners and obtain your Certificate of Validity.

3. Other specifications.

For a referred participation to count, the invited user must complete their participation in the campaign. Otherwise, it will not count as a referral.

This type of contest is available in the Gold and Diamond plans of Cool Tabs.
