Allocation
Usually unlimited supply (badges are aspirational; rarity comes from difficulty to earn, not scarcity).
When to use badges vs other rewards

Permanent recognition. “You are a Product Expert.”

Physical / digital value. Discount code, download, shipment.

Crash fix note
Badge reward rendering was crashing on older communities with non-image badge assets (#2249). If you see a blank badge on a member profile, re-save the reward to trigger the fixed image pipeline.Tiered badge design
Create a series of related badges as escalating rewards:| Tier | Example |
|---|---|
| Bronze | ”Newcomer” — earned on first challenge |
| Silver | ”Regular” — earned on 10th challenge |
| Gold | ”Champion” — earned on 50th challenge |
