Here’s how the team at dacadoo uses Open Loyalty to implement gamification mechanics into their digital health engagement platform to help their customers acquire, engage, and retain customers.
"The target audience we are going after are between 35 to 65 year olds. This is a generally healthy audience with typically no underlying diseases. As you can imagine, It’s difficult to motivate healthy people to use a health and wellness solution regularly."
"In order to succeed, you need a good coverage of engagement functionalities like gamification, lifestyle coaching, content, social features, analytics as well as economic incentives. For example, distributing points for healthy behavior and allowing users to spend these points in a reward shop."Â
Manuel Heuer
Chief Operating Officer at dacadoo
"The main product-related challenge was creating and maintaining campaigns tailored to the specific needs of our clients. Our previous system was not flexible enough and had quite a few limitations. With Open Loyalty we can create user engagement campaigns much easier and fulfill the requirements of our clients with less restrictions."

Open Loyalty is an API-first loyalty engine offering powerful loyalty and gamification features like points, tiers, rewards, referrals, wallets, badges, coupons, and achievements that can be implemented to existing products and services faster than developing them from scratch.
"We use goals, challenges, and event-triggered achievements. We set up events and when they occur, we send the data to Open Loyalty and trigger campaigns. Creating campaigns and tailoring them to what our clients needed in our platform used to be difficult and expensive. The loyalty engine makes it much easier for us to configure and customize the engagement mechanics."

The dacadoo Health Score is a dynamic, science-backed score between 0 and 1,000 that makes sense from complex health data. Its personalized insights, combined with their coaching and gamification features empower users to take control of their health and wellbeing.
Users can activate a variety of goals to set health and lifestyle targets, track their progress, make more positive lifestyle choices, and improve their Health Score.
Users can stay motivated by connecting with friends and colleagues, cheering each other on, and sharing their activities and achievements on social networks.
With the rewards feature users can earn points for healthy behavior. They can redeem points in a rewards shop for benefits like an insurance premium discount.
The game mechanics encourage users to remain active and engaged. The platform library contains team and individual challenges — exercise, nutrition, fun photo-sharing — and 200+ rewarding individual achievements, like self-activated personal goals.
"Usually, users need to collect a lot of points to earn a substantial reward. This takes time. But you can start engaging members fast with a raffle. Raffles provide members with a small number of points an opportunity to win substantial rewards and have been proven to be highly effective."

"If you want people to start buying your products. You need to be a paying customer of certain products in order to be eligible to redeem points and earn rewards."
Jonas Minke
Head of Product at dacadoo
"There are different models of economic incentives, e.g.: gain-framed incentives: where you accumulate points to get a reward; loss-framed incentives: where you get a reward at the start and then you need to accumulate points to keep your reward; trigger-based rewards: e.g. raffles, discounts, issued based on triggers. Test different models and see which engagement mechanics work best for your business."
