How it Works
How does the WebRatio Community work?
WebRatio Community adds a gaming experience to your everyday online activities. You can earn Points and "spend" them on various advantages and gifts. You earn points doing online activities on the Portal, the Forum, the Learn page, and the Add-On area. You can also earn points offline, for example by joining a training course or obtaining a certification.
How can I join the WebRatio Community?
Follow these simple steps:
- Register or log into the WebRatio site.
- Insert the information for your myProfile page.
- Set your profile as public.
Can I have more than one account?
Each user can have only one account. In order to earn all possible Points (for example, Points from partner/customer serial insertion), the account has to be a corporate account with your company email address.
What does Community Digest mean?
Community Digest is a series of informative emails regarding leaderboards, scores and news about WebRatio Community. You can change your settings on how to be informed via eMail.
If you set "Yes" for "Community Digest" in the Edit Information section, you will receive the following eMails:
- Welcome to the Community: you receive it after setting your profile to Public, thus becoming part of the WebRatio Community.
- Acquisition of a New Badge: you receive it every time you get a Badge within the Forum, Learn, Certification and Add-On areas.
- New Gift Available: you receive it every time you earn the points needed to get a gift from WebRatio.
- Weekly: this email has all the news from the Forum, Learn and Add-On areas.
- Monthly: indicates the points you've earned in the last month, your points balance, your position in the leaderboards, the best users and available gifts.
- Leaving the Community: you receive it after setting your profile to Private, which means you are leaving the WebRatio Community.
You can choose, at any time, to not receive the eMails above, by setting "No" for the "Community Digest" in Edit Information section in myAccount.
What happens if I set my Community profile to private?
If you set your profile to private, you will no longer be visible in leaderboards, your Points will be suspended, you will not gain new Badges and Points and you will not be able to request gifts until you make your profile public again.
How can I request support?
Write to community@webratio.com indicating your username and your question or concern.
We will answer you as soon as possible.
