⛷The Slopes app is your best friend during the snowboarding season

Created by Curtis Herbert, a snowboarder himself, Slopes accurately tracks your skiing and snowboarding runs using only an iPhone's GPS. At the end of your day on the slopes, you get a rundown of the day and can share your favorite moments and stats on social media.

🌟An app that embodies the best mountain experiences and records them

And users are delighted with their experience, leaving 4.8 star reviews on average:

🚀 Curtis believes that players deserve to be rewarded for their time on the slopes

When Curtis learned of the Monetizr vision to create incredible user experiences, he knew it was a great fit for Slopes. Monetizr’s white-label solution offers the ultimate flexibility and customization. The team works hand-in-hand with customers each step of the way, from integration and game collectible designs to fulfillment and customer service. Monetizr’s white-glove service takes care of the heavy lifting, so that game developers can focus on delivering a great app.

The best approach for Slopes turned out to be achievement-based rewards for days, runs, mileage, and seasons spent on the slopes.

The holy grail is the Slopes black on black T-shirt. But it takes 500k vertical feet to unlock it (side note – 500k vertical feet is A LOT.) Slopes players are striving to get that far because they know it’s a very exclusive club. Wearing the T-shirt makes a bold statement that shows a fearless athleticism and a competitive edge.

💌People who already unlocked collectibles are superexcited

🎿 When applying the Octalysis framework, Slopes succeeded because of the following elements:

  1. Emotional triggers: we identified the emotional triggers by using the Octalysis framework throughout the narrative of the app.
  2. Rewarding gamers: we rewarded players for time, skills, and money spent natively and by enhancing the user experience within the app.
