Where momentum stalls
A finish line your affiliates can see
Give quiet affiliates a reason to push this month
A fixed commission rate pays the same whether they push this month or next
A prize for first, second and third puts a date on the effort, like the two weeks around your launch
Black Friday or quarter end: set the dates and the leaderboard runs for exactly that window
You promised a competition and now you rank it by hand
The standings live in a spreadsheet you rebuild from exports
Affiliates email to ask where they stand and your reply is already out of date
Affiliates check their own standing in their dashboard, so the emails stop
Add prizes on top of the rates you already pay
A one-month rate bump changes what every affiliate in the campaign earns and taking it back reads like a pay cut
Prizes sit outside commissions: cash, credits, free months or swag, written per place
Your commission setup stays untouched, so there is nothing to roll back when the contest ends

Rankings come straight from your program data
From setup to podium
Pick what wins
Choose the campaigns, then rank affiliates by top earners, top referrers or best conversion rate.
Set a prize per place
Write a prize for each place, like $500 cash for first or three free months for second.
Scores update from real data
Scores update from your reward and lead data as affiliates earn and refer. Each finished period’s standings are saved automatically.
Reward the winners
When the contest ends, prizes go to the top places on the final leaderboard.

Every affiliate sees their rank and what it wins
The leaderboard lives in the dashboard that comes with FirstPromoter, next to the links and earnings affiliates already check.
Top-three podium
The current leaders sit at the top with their scores and the prize each place carries.
Your position card
Each affiliate gets a highlighted card with their own rank, score and the prize for that spot.
Private by default
Other affiliates appear under masked names and a default avatar, while ranks and scores stay visible.

Four ways to shape it
Set it up around your program’s goal
Reward earnings, referrals or conversion rate
Rank by commission earned to push revenue, by new leads to push volume or by conversion rate to reward affiliates whose leads turn into paying customers. The conversion-rate ranking only lists affiliates with at least one paying customer.
Run it for a day, a month or indefinitely
Repeat daily, weekly or monthly rounds, set custom start and end dates around a launch or keep an always-on leaderboard. Recurring rounds save each finished period, so a monthly contest builds a record of past winners.
Include one campaign or your whole program
Select the campaigns that compete or all of them at once. Affiliates only see contests for campaigns they belong to, so a contest for your influencer campaign stays out of every other dashboard.
Step back through every finished period
Move between earlier periods with previous and next controls or open the history panel to scan every saved leaderboard. Each saved period keeps its final ranks and scores.
