Point tracking in spreadsheets
Every credit is an entry with a status, source, and snapshot of its activity.

Credits & Engagement
Activities, stacked goals, periods, requests, a leaderboard, a prize catalog, and automatic credit from Time Clock shifts.
- Automatic shift credit
- Prizes and leaderboard
- Several goals per member
Why departments switch
What Credits fixes.
Define the activities that earn credit, the member categories that set goals, and the periods those goals reset on. Members see their pace against each goal, request credit, climb the leaderboard, and redeem prizes, while officers approve requests from one queue, award or void entries, and let Time Clock rules award shift credit automatically.
- Expectations are visible
- Participation is recognized
- Every credit has a source
Unclear expectations
Members see each goal, how far along they are, what they should have by now, and the days left.
Manual shift credit
Time Clock rules award credit per shift, per hour, or per interval.
Low engagement
A leaderboard and prize catalog make participation visible and rewarding.

How it works
From setup to a record you can trust.
Define
Set activity types, categories with goals, and the period cadence.
Earn
Credit comes from member requests, officer awards, or Time Clock rules.
Approve
Officers approve or deny requests from one queue, with notes when your policy requires them.
Recognize
Leaderboard, prize redemptions, analytics, and PDF/CSV reports.
Capabilities
Everything Credits includes.
Activity types
Default values, hour limits, required notes or approval, and custom request fields.
Stacked goals
Each member can carry several goals — for example an overall goal and an EMS continuing-education goal.
Pace tracking
Expected-by-now, still-needed, and days-left figures, with a behind-pace badge.
Time Clock rules
Filter by category, role, station, job, and hours, with caps and duplicate prevention.
Request queue
Approve or deny with a tick or a cross; void entries one at a time or in bulk.
Leaderboard
Top-three cards and full rankings; hide exempt members, include pending credit, or limit it to admins.
Prize catalog
Spend or milestone rewards with stock and per-member limits and a fulfillment queue.
Analytics and reports
Credits approved per day, members earning, time to approve, and PDF/CSV reports.
Part of one portal
Works with the rest of your department.
Members keep one secure sign-in and one set of role permissions across every module you turn on.
Questions
Credits FAQ
Can credit be awarded automatically?
Yes — from completed Time Clock shifts. Other automatic awards can be built with Workflows.
Can one member have more than one goal?
Yes. Assign several categories and each goal shows its own progress bar.
Are prizes required?
No. The prize catalog is optional and off until you turn it on.
