The pieces / Points and badges
Reign + WB Gamification
Points and badges that fit the design, not fight it.
WB Gamification decides what earns a point and what earns a badge. Reign decides where those show up and how loud they are, which matters, because a badge that shouts on every screen stops meaning anything.
Reign theme
WB Gamification installs free and inherits the theme's design. Pro is a separate decision you make later.

What WB Gamification does, free and paid
The line between the two is the same for every one of our plugins: the free version runs a real site, and Pro is for the point where that site starts earning.
- Free version
- Points, badges, and ranks earned from real member activity.
- Pro adds
- Custom rules, leaderboards, and rewards.
- Pro from
- Free, no Pro
One site, starting price. Compare every plugin free against Pro.
How the two fit together
Reign styles WB Gamification out of the box. There is no bridge plugin, no compatibility add-on, and no CSS you have to write to stop the plugin pages looking like a different website. The same team builds the theme and the plugin, which is the whole reason it works this way.
In practice that means points, badges, and rank displays wherever they appear inherit the Reign design system: the same type scale, the same spacing, the same colors you set once in the customizer.
This pairing usually shows up on communities that need a reason for members to come back tomorrow. Add the other pieces that site needs and skip the rest, because each plugin is separate and almost all of them install free.
The other way to do this
GamiPress and myCred cover the same ground, and plenty of good communities run on them. We are not going to hide that.
Reign does not sell a styling add-on for GamiPress and myCred. What it sells is a theme whose design system already covers our own points and badges plugin, so the pages you are building are styled the day you install WB Gamification rather than the day you finish styling them yourself.
The honest summary: either route can work. This one keeps the theme and the feature under one roof, which is mostly a support question. When something looks wrong, there is one team to ask. How buying works.
Another way in
Already running BuddyPress or BuddyBoss?
Reign styles that stack too. Keep your engine and add our Pro community plugins in one license.
Straight answers
- Do I need a Reign add-on to use WB Gamification?
- No. Reign add-ons exist because third-party engines need styling the theme does not ship with. WB Gamification is ours, so the theme already knows its templates. Buy Reign, install the plugin, and the pages come out looking like the rest of the site.
- Is WB Gamification free?
- Yes. The free version gives you points, badges, and ranks earned from real member activity. It is a working plugin, not a trial. It has no separate Pro price.
- What do I actually have to buy?
- The Reign theme, $99 a year or $249 once for a single site. That is the only required purchase in this pairing. WB Gamification installs free on top of it.
- Can I use GamiPress instead?
- Yes. GamiPress and myCred are a common way to do this, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What you get by starting with WB Gamification is one team behind the theme and the plugin, so the design and the feature are never two vendors pointing at each other.
- I already run BuddyPress or BuddyBoss. Does this still work?
- Reign styles that stack too, and always has. Keep the engine you know. The BuddyPress Community Bundle collects our Pro community plugins for it into one licence, from $249 a year or $699 lifetime.
