MINI GAMES

Using gamification to increase the amount of time a potential customer spends on your site can raise their engagement level with your brand/company. This goes a long way toward influencing their future usage behaviour with the app/product.

A Wheel of Fortune Widget is possibly the most simple and easy way to implement a gamification strategy.

Wheel of Fortune is easy to set up as a widget for your website/App. Users who are browsing your site/app will be presented with the opportunity to spin the wheel for a chance to win a lot of rewards.You can customize the widget and offer anything you wish, may that be a random article picker, or a free PDF.Once the user turns the wheel, they are presented with the opportunity to receive their reward.

The Wheel of Fortune works best with discounts and promotional items. You may also choose to propose your products and services.
