Make showing up worth something.
PointSummit creates a live competition around participation in your event — so contributors promote more, participants complete more, and the energy doesn't die by day three.
For bundle hosts, summit hosts, challenge runners, and course creators.
Founding member price: $97 lifetime — 100 spots only, then $149 forever.
Select yours —
we'll show you what matters most.
PointSummit works for promotional contests and accountability challenges. Pick your event type to see how it fits.
Your event already has contributors.
Now give them a reason to show up.
Every event loses momentum in the middle. This is the fix.
- 01You spent weeks recruiting contributors. Three days after your event opens, half of them have gone quiet — and you're the one chasing them down.
- 02You know a leaderboard would change the energy. You also know there's no version of you running one manually in the middle of an active launch.
- 03The same two or three contributors promote every time. Everyone else said yes and then disappeared. You can't even tell if they know the event is live.
- 04It's late. You're in a spreadsheet tallying points instead of running your launch. There has to be a better way.
- 05Every event starts from scratch. New spreadsheet. New DM thread. New instructions. No system, no time, no patience left for it.
We'd done 28 bundles. We knew exactly what the pattern looked like: contributors say yes, the event opens, and half of them go quiet. So I built the tool that changes that pattern.
Points are earned by action, not audience.
This is not an affiliate link tracker. Contributors submit proof of every promotion — a screenshot, a link, a file upload. You review it, approve it, and their points update instantly. Or turn on auto-approve and skip the review entirely.
Every email submitted earns points whether it goes to 500 people or 50,000. That means every contributor has a reason to keep promoting all the way through your event — not just the ones with the biggest lists. More contributors staying active longer means more emails sent, more posts shared, and more people seeing your offer.
You decide what counts as a promotion and what it's worth. An email to your list earns more than an Instagram story? Set it that way. Podcast mentions worth triple a social post? Done. Want to reward larger lists too? You can add bonus point tiers — a little extra for bigger reach. Every point value is yours to set. The system incentivizes whatever you actually want contributors to do.
When people can see their rank,
they stop waiting to be reminded.
PointSummit is built around how people are actually wired. Every feature uses a specific principle from behavioral psychology — not because it sounds good, but because it's what actually gets people to do the thing they said they would do.
That's why the leaderboard alert — "someone just passed you" — is one of the most powerful re-engagement triggers in the platform. It creates urgency without you doing a thing.
When people can see themselves moving on a leaderboard or toward a milestone, they come back without being asked. The progress itself becomes the motivation.
Variable rewards — where effort increases your odds but doesn't guarantee the outcome — are among the most engagement-sustaining mechanisms in behavioral psychology.
Milestones use this effect deliberately. When someone can see they're 12 points from unlocking a reward, they take action faster than if no threshold existed.
A live leaderboard isn't just a ranking — it's social proof in real time. When contributors see others climbing, inaction has a visible cost.
The submission flow removes friction from the first action. Once a contributor submits and sees their name on the board, the psychology of consistency keeps them coming back.
Set it up fast. Share one link.
Let the system do its job.
Name your event, set dates, define your promo types or tasks, and set the point value for each one. An email to your list worth 15 points. An Instagram story worth 5. A podcast mention worth 25. You decide what matters and how much it's worth. The wizard walks you through every step — no guesswork, no starting from scratch. Run the same type of event again? Save your configuration as a template and load it next time in seconds. Add a welcome video to the portal home page so contributors know exactly what to do from day one — no onboarding emails needed.
One link. One optional password. They're in immediately. No account creation. No app download. No friction between them and the leaderboard. The easier it is to get in, the more likely they are to actually show up.
When a contributor promotes your event, they submit proof — a screenshot, a link, or a file upload. You get one submission queue, review everything in one place, and approve with a click.
The moment you approve a submission, the leaderboard refreshes, milestones recalculate, raffle entries update, and contributors who got passed get flagged for re-engagement. No spreadsheet. No manual math. No checking who's where at midnight.
Pick the incentives
that fit your event.
Most contributors go quiet mid-event because they feel like their audience is too small to matter. PointSummit removes that excuse. Every email sent, every post shared, every collaboration completed earns points — which means more contributors stay active longer, more promotions go out across your full event window, and more people see your offer. Use all three incentive types together, or just the ones that fit — every one is a toggle.
Rankings refresh in real time. Top performers compete for prizes you set. Everyone can see exactly where they stand and what they need to do to move up.
Points are earned by action — not list size. The most consistent promoter beats the biggest list that sent once.
Set point thresholds that unlock rewards automatically. Someone in 6th place on the leaderboard can still hit a milestone and win something. That keeps everyone promoting — not just the people competing for first.
Unlike leaderboard prizes, milestones are guaranteed. Reach the threshold, unlock the reward — no competition, no luck required.
Every approved submission earns raffle tickets. More submissions equals better odds. Raffle entries are based entirely on how often someone promotes — not their list size.
Three emails from a 500-person list beats one email from a 50,000-person list. Consistent action wins.
Your mid-event emails
are already written.
Mid-event update emails are the difference between contributors who stay competitive and contributors who forget the event is running. Writing them while managing an active launch is the last thing you have time for. PointSummit writes them for you.
Open the Email Templates tab. Your live event data is already pulled in. Copy the email, paste it into whatever email tool you use, send it to your entire list. Inside that email, every contributor finds their own name — their current rank, how many more submissions they need to move up, and the exact promo type that would close the gap in one shot.
Hey [Contributor],

🎟️ Raffle update: 247 total raffle tickets earned so far. Every approved promo earns you more entries — more promos = better odds.
📊 Most popular promos this event: Email to list leads, Instagram Story close behind.
Not sure what to submit? Head to the leaderboard page — the Ways to Earn section has the full list with point values.
→ pointsummit.app/your-event
Keep promoting — every submission counts toward the leaderboard, milestones, AND raffle simultaneously.
Sarah
P.S. — I run this whole promo contest with PointSummit. If you host your own summits, bundles, or challenges, you can try it here: pointsummit.app/ref/sarah
All data — rankings, points, rank changes, milestone status, raffle tickets — fills in automatically from your live event. The host opens the Email Templates tab, clicks Generate, copies the email, and pastes it into their own email platform. No writing. No math.
The system calculates all of it automatically. You don't do the math. You don't look up who's in what position. And because every contributor sees everyone's name and numbers in the same email — the competition stays public, the stakes feel real, and re-engaging someone is as simple as hitting send.
"I rarely care about leaderboard contests.
Until I saw this one."
I was hooked. Faith made it fun to participate. I could take small, easy actions and gain points. It was fun to submit a new entry and see myself rise to the top of the leaderboard.
I participate in a lot of bundles and summits, and I rarely care about participating in leaderboard contests. They just aren't worth my time. Until I saw Faith's Collab Carnival leaderboard for her latest Becoming Boss bundle. The app was easy to use and made it even easier for me to promote her bundle. I would definitely recommend.

Built to increase action.
Not create more admin.
Every feature solves a real problem. Nothing in here was added because it sounded good. Use the features that fit your event — every one of them is a toggle.
Live rankings refresh the moment you approve a submission. Contributors watch themselves climb — and come back to climb higher. Seeing your own name on a public board does more than any reminder email ever will.
One queue for everything. Contributors upload proof — a screenshot, a link, a file — and it lands in your admin panel ready to review. Approve in one click, or turn on auto-approve and let it process instantly. No inbox chaos mid-launch.
Every approved submission earns raffle tickets. More submissions, better odds. The most consistent promoter — not the biggest list — has the best shot at winning. Optional — toggle it off if you want a leaderboard-only event.
Set point thresholds that unlock prizes automatically. Unlike leaderboard prizes, milestones are guaranteed — reach the threshold and the reward is yours. Everyone has a next target. Optional — toggle on or off per event.
When someone gets passed on the leaderboard, PointSummit flags it and gives you a ready-to-copy re-engagement email. No setup needed. Want alerts to send automatically? Connect a free Resend account and the platform handles it the moment a rank changes.
Open the Email Templates tab and your live event data is already filled in — current rankings, individual point-gap callouts, near-milestone nudges, re-engagement copy for inactive contributors. Copy, paste, send.
Add email list bonus tiers that award extra points for larger audiences — a little more for bigger reach. The leaderboard stays competitive for everyone, but your top contributors feel valued too.
One-per-session pop-up shows each contributor their rank, gap to the next position, and milestone progress. Runs automatically. Zero ongoing work from you.
Live stats plus a prioritized action list with urgency flags. It tells you who's inactive, what's pending, and what to do next. You handle it — instead of hunting for it.
Built-in matchmaking board for podcast swaps, social exchanges, and joint promos. Contributors find their own partners inside the portal. You don't have to coordinate it.
After every approved submission, contributors see their updated rank, raffle entries, milestone progress, and exactly what to submit next. The platform suggests the next action for them. You don't have to ask.
Upload swipe files, email templates, and graphics once. Accessible inside the contributor portal anytime. You answer that question exactly once.
Participants submit proof of completed tasks — a reflection, a screenshot, a link. No guesswork, no honor system. You see exactly who's keeping up.
Daily or weekly streaks reward consistency. Grace periods and reset rules are configurable per event. Consistency gets rewarded — not just intensity.
Community boards inside PointSummit let participants post wins, share takeaways, and find accountability partners — all without leaving the portal. Every post earns points, so engagement is part of the competition.
Live rankings by task completion points. Healthy competition keeps people engaged from day one to the last day — not just the first three.
"Complete 5 tasks = free bonus resource." Milestones reward consistency, not just top performance. The person who will never win the leaderboard still has a target to hit.
Day-by-day schedule inside the portal shows topics, homework, and resource links. When sessions wrap up, recordings live in the Replays tab — a dedicated library participants can access any time. No "where's the recording" DMs.
The features most tools
don't think to build.
These came from running 28+ events and knowing exactly what's missing when you're in the middle of a launch.
Most events lose momentum in the first 48 hours because the energy hasn't built yet. The waitlist contest changes that. Run a promo contest in the days before your event opens — contributors are already competing, the leaderboard is already live, and the energy is already building before you open the doors. Points can carry over or reset when the main event starts. Your choice.
Before the event goes live, contributors land on a pre-event countdown page — configurable heading, message, and resource links already in place. You choose whether to lock the portal until launch day or leave it open for early exploration. By the time you approve the first real submission, the competition is already running.
Your first event setup takes about 15 minutes. Every event after that? Load your saved template and you're ready in two. Promo types, point values, prize structures, event settings — all saved and reusable. The system gets faster the more you use it. If you run the same type of event more than once, this feature alone is worth the price.
Some contributors deserve recognition that points can't capture — the one who showed up every single day, the one who got three other people to join, the one who sent the most creative promo. Create custom awards with built-in templates like Email Champion and Collaboration Champion, or build your own. Winners see their award displayed publicly in the portal.
You could manage this manually.
But why?
Built for hosts who want more action
from the people already in the room.
Get contributors to actually promote instead of just saying they will. Create more visibility, urgency, and momentum across your entire event window — without managing it all manually.
Run a speaker or affiliate contest with proof tracking, rankings, milestones, and prizes — without chasing anyone down or running math in a spreadsheet during your launch.
Give people a reason to participate consistently instead of dropping one promo and going quiet. The leaderboard keeps the energy going for the full event window.
Track daily actions, reward consistency, and keep people engaged with streaks, leaderboards, and community boards — all without needing a Facebook group.
Turn participation into visible momentum with progress tracking, milestone rewards, and accountability built into the experience. The students who actually finish become your best testimonials.
Build a more active community with streaks, milestones, and simple participation tracking that keeps members showing up between live events — not just when you remind them.
Make your event
look the part.
Choose from 8 themed portal templates — each a different visual style you apply to any event. Set your own brand colors, or pick a pre-built theme that fits the energy of your launch. Every future update is included.
I built the tool
I needed most.
We'd done this 28 times. Twenty-eight bundles. 66,000 opt-ins. Enough to know the pattern: contributors say yes, the event opens, half go quiet.
We knew a leaderboard would change that. The problem was running it manually during an active launch on a small team. So we built PointSummit for our own event first.
The first contributor told us she took more action than she ever had in any bundle — because of the leaderboard. People started asking what platform we used. That's why this exists.

The answers
right here.
Do participants need to create an account?
No. Contributors get one link and one optional access password. They enter their name and they're in immediately — no account creation, no app download, no friction. The easier it is to get started, the more likely they are to actually show up and submit. If the host sets an access code, contributors enter it once and the browser remembers them for 30 days.
How does proof submission work?
When a contributor promotes your event, they open the Submit page, choose the promo type (email, social post, podcast mention, etc.), enter their audience size, attach proof — a screenshot, a URL, or a file upload — and submit. Everything lands in one queue in your admin panel. You review and approve with one click. Points, rankings, and raffle entries update the moment you approve.
Proof uploads are optional — you can turn the requirement off if you're running a trusted group where screenshots feel unnecessary. You can also turn on auto-approve so submissions process instantly without any review from you at all.
Do I have to approve every submission manually?
No. If you'd rather not review submissions one by one, turn on auto-approve and every submission processes the moment it's uploaded. Points, rankings, milestones, and raffle entries update automatically with no action needed from you. If you want manual review for some promo types but not others, you can manage that from your admin settings. The default is manual review, but it's entirely your call.
Do I have to use all the features — leaderboard, raffle, milestones?
No. Every incentive system is independent. Use all three together, or just the ones that fit your event. Want a simple leaderboard contest with no raffle? Turn the raffle off. Running an event where prizes don't make sense? Turn milestones off. The setup wizard lets you toggle each feature on or off, and you can change settings at any time after the event is created.
Can I see who isn't promoting so I can follow up?
Yes. The Command Center tab in your admin panel shows inactive contributors — people who joined but haven't submitted anything — flagged with urgency indicators. The Email Templates tab includes a pre-written inactive contributor re-engagement email populated with live data. You don't have to figure out who to follow up with or what to say. The platform tells you both.
Can I reject a submission, and what happens when I do?
Yes. From the Submissions tab you can approve or reject any proof submission and add an admin note explaining why. Rejected submissions don't earn points or raffle entries. Contributors can see their submission history including status in their My Status page, so they know what's been approved and what hasn't. This keeps the competition honest without requiring back-and-forth DMs.
Can I edit the event after it's live?
Yes. All event settings can be edited at any time after the event is created, and all changes take effect immediately. You can add new promo types, adjust point values, change prize descriptions, update dates, add resources, and post announcements — all without interrupting an active event.
What happens to my data after the event ends?
Event data is retained for 30 days after the event end date. You'll receive automated email reminders at 30 days, 7 days, and 3 days before deletion so you have time to export. Your event dashboard shows a visual countdown and a one-click export button. Once the 30 days are up, the event and its data are permanently deleted.
Can I export my event data?
Yes. From your admin panel header you can export all event data as CSV files with one click. The full export includes up to 10 separate files covering submissions, contributors, leaderboard rankings, promo types, prizes, raffle prizes, milestones, resources, and announcements. You can also export just submissions, just contributors, or just the final leaderboard if you only need specific data.
What is the Collab Board?
The Collab Board is a built-in matchmaking board inside the contributor portal where participants post requests to find partners for podcast swaps, social media exchanges, and livestream collaborations. Contributors post what they're looking for, other contributors respond, and they coordinate directly. It's available in Leaderboard Mode only. You don't have to coordinate any of it — the board runs itself.
How do leaderboard alerts work — and do I need any tech setup?
No tech setup is required. The Alerts tab inside your admin panel shows exactly which contributors have been passed on the leaderboard, with a pre-written re-engagement email ready to copy and send from whatever email tool you already use. No API key, no integrations needed.
Want alerts to send automatically the moment someone is passed? You'll need a free Resend account. Create a free Resend account, connect it to PointSummit with an API key, and alerts send automatically when you approve a submission that changes the rankings. The free tier covers 3,000 emails per month — enough for most events.
Contributors only receive alerts if they opted in when submitting proof. Nobody gets emailed without asking for it. The same system handles milestone alerts — when a contributor hits a point threshold, they automatically receive a congratulations email describing their reward.
Can I use the leaderboard, milestones, and raffle at the same time?
Yes — and that's how most hosts run it. A single approved submission counts toward all three simultaneously: points toward the leaderboard, progress toward milestones, and tickets toward the raffle. This keeps every contributor engaged regardless of where they rank — the person in 6th place is still earning milestone progress and raffle tickets. You can also toggle any of them off per event if a simpler setup fits better.
Can I choose what promotions earn points and how many points they're worth?
Yes — and this is one of the most useful things about PointSummit. You define every promo type and assign its point value during event setup. An email to your list earns 15 points. An Instagram story earns 5. A podcast mention earns 25. A reel earns 10. Whatever you set is what contributors work toward.
This means you're not just running a generic contest — you're building a competition that rewards the specific promotions that actually move the needle for your event. If email is your highest-converting channel, make it worth the most. If you want more social posts, weight those higher. The system incentivizes exactly what you want contributors to do.
The same applies in Challenge Mode — you define what tasks participants can submit and how many points each one earns. Module completion, written reflections, community posts, peer coaching — every task type and its value is yours to configure.
Can I limit how many times a contributor submits per day?
Yes. You can set a maximum submissions per day limit from your event settings. This prevents any single contributor from flooding the leaderboard with rapid-fire submissions and keeps the competition based on real, sustained promotional effort over the full event window rather than a sprint at the start.
Does PointSummit track clicks, leads, or sales automatically?
No. PointSummit is built for proof-based participation tracking. Contributors upload proof of what they promoted and you approve it. It is not an affiliate link tracker, click counter, or commission payout platform. Every point represents a real, intentional promotion your event actually received — which is a more motivating and fair system than one based purely on automatic attribution.
Can I run a contest before my event opens?
Yes. The waitlist contest lets you run a promo contest in the days before your event opens. Contributors earn points during the pre-launch window, the leaderboard is already active, and the momentum is already building before doors open. You choose whether points carry over into the main event or reset at launch. Before the event goes live, contributors who visit the portal see a countdown page with a custom message and resource links. You can lock the portal until the start date or leave it open for early exploration.
I run the same type of event multiple times. Do I have to set it up from scratch each time?
No. You can export your event configuration as a reusable template — promo types, point values, prize structures, all settings included. When you're ready for the next event, import the template and your setup is pre-filled in seconds. The more events you run, the faster setup gets. Hosts who run quarterly or annual events save significant time with every repeat.
What if my event is small?
PointSummit works well for small groups. You don't need dozens of contributors to create competitive energy — even 10 or 15 active participants take more action when progress is visible and rewards are real. The raffle system is based entirely on how often someone promotes, not their list size, so every contributor feels like they have a genuine shot. Small events often see higher per-person participation rates than large ones because the leaderboard feels winnable.
How long does setup actually take?
Most hosts get their basic event set up in about 15 minutes using the step-by-step setup wizard. The wizard walks you through mode selection, dates, features, promo or task types, prizes, and themes with smart defaults already in place. You can skip sections and come back later — the setup draft auto-saves every few seconds. If you've run an event before and saved a template, setup is even faster.
Does PointSummit work on mobile?
Yes. The contributor portal is mobile-first and fully responsive. Contributors can submit proof, check the leaderboard, browse prizes, and track their progress from any device without needing to download anything. The host admin panel also works on mobile, though managing submissions is easier on desktop.
Can I use this for challenges or course accountability?
Yes. Challenge Mode is built specifically for accountability challenges, course completions, fitness challenges, memberships, and any program where consistent participation is the goal. It includes streak tracking, a day-by-day schedule, a replay library for past sessions, milestone rewards, community boards, and a leaderboard based on task completion. Everything runs inside the platform — no Facebook group needed.
What is the difference between the founding member price and the regular price?
The first 100 people who join get lifetime access for $97 — that's the founding member price. Once those 100 spots are filled, the price goes to $149 permanently. You pay once and own it forever with no renewals.
Is there an affiliate program?
Yes. Every PointSummit host gets an affiliate link automatically inside their account. Refer other bundle hosts, summit hosts, or challenge creators and earn commission on every signup. Details on payout terms are available inside your account after purchase.
What is the refund policy?
You have 7 days to try it. If PointSummit is not the right fit, email [email protected] within 7 days for a full refund. No questions, no hoops.
