Feature Highlights:
- Notification is immediately displayed when achievements are earned
- Displays one or more achievements in the same window
- Message includes the specific badge image, BadgeOSCongratulations Text, and points (if any) associated with each achievement earned
- Settings let you select which BadgeOS Achievement Types should trigger pop-up Congratulations messages when earned (display Congrats messages for just the Achievement Types you want to celebrate most or use it for all of them – you decide!)
- Greets users when they login if achievements were earned in their absence (great for achievements awarded upon approval, by site admins, or for simply logging in!)

Benefits of Congratulations Add-on:
- Celebrate achievements in real-time
- Encourage or incentivize your users to keep engaging and to take the next step, keeping their momentum going
- Keep your audience wondering what activities they do or complete on your site may next trigger a feel-good moment
- Use the BadgeOS Congratulations Text in BadgeOS to make users feel great about their progress
- Great for activity or community triggers, where the user may not even realize they are completing steps towards an achievement — like logging in a certain number of times, posting comments or forum messages, or completing an important grouping of achievements.
- Put the spotlight squarely on user achievement at exactly the moment it happens! Neuroscience research indicates that these dopamine-releasing moments “prompt the brain seek future opportunities to repeat the action” (Willis). That means more engagement in your site and programs.
