Share App Referral Block + Gamification Integration

I’d love to request a stronger referral feature for the BuddyBoss App, especially for communities that rely heavily on member-driven growth.

Currently, the Share App functionality is useful, but I think it could become much more powerful if it were available as a dedicated App Block inside the BuddyBoss App Builder.

The idea would be to create a reusable “Invite a Friend / Share the App” block that can be placed anywhere inside the app, for example on the Home Screen, profile, onboarding pages, custom screens, or campaign pages.

Ideally, this block could also connect directly with BuddyBoss Gamification, so community owners could reward referrals.

For example:

  • Member taps Invite a Friend
  • They receive a personal referral/share link
  • Their friend installs the app and creates an account
  • BuddyBoss tracks who referred that new member
  • The referring member automatically receives points
  • Additional achievements, badges or ranks could be triggered after 1, 5, 10, etc. successful referrals

It would also be great if administrators could configure:

  • Button text such as “Invite a Friend”
  • Custom share message
  • Referral reward points
  • Reward conditions, such as registration or first activity
  • Referral count per member
  • Gamification achievements based on referral milestones
  • A referral leaderboard
  • Deep links so invited users open directly in the app after installing

This would make it much easier to build a true referral growth loop within BuddyBoss without relying on external referral platforms or custom development.

For communities like mine, where growth depends heavily on members inviting other people with the same interests, this could become an extremely valuable native growth feature.

The existing Share App functionality already provides a great foundation. Turning it into an App Block and integrating it with BuddyBoss Gamification could make it significantly more powerful.
