Gold Star Leaderboard

And everyone on the team can access the Gold Star Leaderboard from their Coworkers tab to see how many stars they’ve received and to view their rank. To find out more about the Leaderboard, click here.

Who Can Give Gold Stars

The Admin who initiated the Organization on Crew may have received some Gold Stars when they signed up for the app. If they didn’t, or if they need more, Gold Stars are easy to purchase. You’ll know if you’re out of Gold Stars to give if this screen appears when you try to award one.

It’s easy to get more Gold Stars

Not an Admin? You can still give your coworkers a shout out. Any team member can give any other team member a Gold Star, as long as their settings screen shows that they have Stars to give—just $.99 for ten Stars.

Note Upgrade to Crew Pro to get 25 Stars per Admin/per month for free.

Tracking Your Star Balance

All team members can stay on top of the number of Gold Stars they have to give their coworkers.

• Every time you award a Gold Star, the confirmation box will remind you how many you have left
• If you're currently out of Gold Stars, you'll find out on what date you'll credited with a new allotment.

 

Gold stars are a fun way to recognize your team members for doing great work. You might reward someone for stepping up to a leadership challenge, or for being mentioned in a positive customer review.

The Gold Star Leaderboard can add an extra dose of healthy competition to the work environment, motivating employees to give just that little bit more.

Everyone on the team can access the Gold Star Leaderboard from their Coworkers tab to see how many stars they’ve received and to view their rank.

Check out how many Gold Stars you have at the top of the Coworkers tab

Tap on the red banner at the top of the Coworkers tab to access the Leaderboard itself, which displays the Gold Star ranking—current, prior month, or all time—as well as a list of the top-ranking team members.

View your ranking on the Gold Star Leaderboard

Some companies give prizes for the top Gold Star earners at the end of every month!
