How Challenge Badges Work

Some challenges include badges tied to their rules. These badges recognize progress inside that specific challenge. They are different from Family Badges and from Rank Badges that are not currently active.

Quick Start

  1. Join the challenge through its link.
  2. Review the challenge tasks and rules.
  3. Complete the required task counts.
  4. Open Badge Central to see badges you have earned.

How Challenge Badges are awarded

  • The challenge must have badges configured.
  • The participant must meet the badge requirement.
  • IAFT awards the badge when the configured count is reached.

Current availability

  • Wei’s Wellness Challenge has active Challenge Badges.
  • Other challenges may not have badges unless they are specifically configured.

What is not included

  • Badge Central does not show how far away you are from the next badge.
  • Rank Badges are programmed but not currently configured as a general feature.

Family Example

A wellness challenge may award a badge after a participant completes one of its assigned activities a certain number of times.

Good to Know

  • Start with the smallest version that solves the problem.
  • Change one setting at a time so you can see what helped.
  • Missed days are information, not proof that your family failed.
  • Open Help in the IAFT app and send a message if something does not work as expected.

Best First Action

Open the active challenge and review which tasks and badge rules apply before you begin.
