Early leaders can pull ahead quickly.

In a straight step challenge, frequent walkers can pull far ahead, giving others less reason to check in.

Give employees more ways to see progress.

Choose race, streak, journey, E-Marathon, or custom formats, then add teams, milestones, and rewards to match your program goals.

Simple for employees. Flexible for program teams.

Use a phone or wearable

Employees can track steps from supported phone sources, Apple Watch, Fitbit, or Garmin. A wearable is optional.

Enroll selected employee groups

Let employees choose leaderboard visibility

Employees can opt out of individual rankings and continue participating in the challenge.

  • Card 1 of 5

    Shape the challenge around your workforce.

    Set the participation model, scoring, and privacy controls that fit your program.

    • Solo or team

      Run an individual leaderboard, a team leaderboard, or both.

    • Average team scoring

      Standard team scoring compares teams using the average of member scores rather than total headcount.

    • Optional leaderboard visibility

      Employees can hide themselves from rankings and continue participating.

    • Step-only or multi-activity

      Run a steps-only campaign or use a custom format to add other wellness tasks.

    Know how each step reaches the leaderboard.

    Vantage Fit uses one primary step source per employee and scores synced activity on the server.

    • Supported step sources

      Use Apple Health on iOS, Google Fit or a selected Android source, Fitbit, or Garmin.

    • One primary source

      Connecting Fitbit or Garmin makes it the active step source instead of adding a second total.

    • Trusted-source controls

      On iOS, step data from apps and devices must come through Apple Health and pass the trusted-source rules.

    • Server-side scoring

      Synced step data is processed on the server before it appears in a challenge leaderboard.

    • Post-challenge buffer

      A three-day buffer supports eligible backdated step processing before final results are reviewed.
