A planning calendar, not a product setting. Four themed weeks is exactly how a Custom Challenge is configured, one week at a time.

Formats

Five formats you build yourself. Four your account manager sets up.

Every program in the library is one of these. Pick the format and the scoring rule comes with it.

Custom Challenge

Weekly themes, each with its own mix of tasks drawn from 27 task types. The Help Center calls it the go-to format if you are unsure.

Ranked byTotal points across all tasks and weeks

Race Challenge

A pure step leaderboard with no target. No tasks, no teams, no certificate.

Ranked byTotal steps

Journey Challenge

Steps unlock milestones along a route map. Three built-in templates ship with it.

Ranked byPoints earned at milestones

Streak Challenge

One daily step target. A miss resets the streak, it does not end the challenge.

Ranked byDays completed, with total steps as the tiebreaker

E-Marathon

Steps convert to distance at a ratio you set, 1,000 steps to 1 km by default.

Rollout

How any challenge in this library runs.

Same four beats, whichever program you pick.

1

Set who is in it

Filter by country, city, department, age range, language and more, with a live count of who matches before you publish.

2

Employees are enrolled, not recruited

Everyone who matches is added when the challenge starts, or when they next open the app, so new hires are picked up too.

3

Activity tracks itself

Steps sync from Apple Health and Google Fit, or from a connected Fitbit or Garmin. Everything else is a tap in the app.

4

Recognition lands on its own

Badges fire on thresholds within minutes, certificates generate at the end if you enabled them, and Vantage Points land in the wallet.

Creating a challenge takes 5 to 10 minutes from the admin dashboard, and you can run as many at the same time as you want.

See how points and gift cards work
Fair by design

The rules protect the people most likely to opt out.

Scoring, teams and privacy settings are built so a first-time participant is not out of it on day one.

Built into the scoring

Nobody has to be an athlete to place well.

Four rules that apply to every challenge in the library, whatever format it runs on.

Everyone can max out the day

Non-step tasks score as a percentage of the daily target and cap at 100% a day, so going far over the target does not buy a bigger lead.

Team score is an average

Team leaderboards rank on the average of member scores, not the total, so a bigger team is not a better team.

Opting out of the leaderboard does not opt you out

Employees can hide from individual rankings in Settings, keep taking part, keep earning points, and their score still counts toward the team average.

Wheelchair mode is a setting, not a separate program

Turning it on adds Wheelchair as a workout type. Route, distance and pace track exactly as they do for a run, and count toward distance and active-minutes tasks.

HR sees participation and rankings. Weight, assessment answers, lab reports, food logs and mood logs stay with the employee. Vantage Fit operates under HIPAA guidelines and is SOC 2 Type II audited.

Customer programs

Four programs, four workforces, four measured results.

Each number is labelled with what it actually counted, and links to the customer story it came from.

Results from named customer programs. Engagement and participation are different measures, and each card names the one its program reported. Outcomes vary by workforce and program design. See the reporting behind these numbers

Before you launch

Questions HR asks before the first challenge.

What is an employee wellness challenge?

An employee wellness challenge is a time-bound program in which a company sets one or more healthy targets, tracks progress automatically from phones and wearables, and ranks or recognizes the people taking part. In Vantage Fit, HR picks a format, sets a target audience, and every matching employee is enrolled without signing up. Progress appears on individual and team leaderboards, and taking part can earn points, badges and a certificate.

Do employees have to sign up?

No. There is no browse-and-join flow. HR sets a target audience using filters such as department, location, age range or language, and everyone who matches is enrolled. You can enroll everyone immediately, or choose Enroll When Active so new hires and late installers are picked up as they open the app. Late joiners score from their join date forward, with no retroactive credit and no penalty.

Do we have to design the program ourselves?

No. Start from a template in the dashboard, which arrives with a format, tasks, targets, balanced scoring and suggested weekly themes, then set your own dates, audience and branding. Level, Marathon Event, Weight Burn and training plans are set up with your Vantage Fit account manager instead. A custom Journey map with your own artwork is a design project with a 2 to 3 week lead time, for annual clients.

Does everyone need a wearable?

No. Steps come from the phone through Apple Health and Google Fit. Employees who own a Fitbit or Garmin can connect one primary device instead, and the app uses that device's data exclusively so nothing is double counted. Everything that is not a step, including water, sleep, meals, yoga and mood, is logged in the app, across 65+ activity types.

Can we run more than one challenge at once?

Yes, with no limit. Each challenge has its own leaderboard, point pool and completion criteria, and a single walk contributes to every challenge whose tasks it matches. A common pattern is an always-on streak underneath a shorter seasonal race.
