If you’re a regular on the Dropbox Community, or even if you’re here for the very first time, chances are you’ve already received one of our badges 🏅.

What are badges?
Badges are our way of saying a big thank you for being an active part of our Community and helping to make it such a friendly, helpful place for everyone. To start off with, they’re pretty easy to collect - just by joining conversations, asking questions or lending a hand, you’ll start earning them in no time! But as you climb the ranks and continue to contribute, the challenges grow a little tougher. Only our most dedicated community members manage to collect them all 🏆 ... and hey, we love celebrating their achievements! 🎉
How to earn badges?
Getting started with badges is easy - they’re all about celebrating your participation and the positive impact you make in our community 💬.
You can earn badges for all kinds of activities … starting conversations, replying to threads, giving and getting likes, having answers accepted as solutions, using tags, and a whole lot more! 🌟
We’ve also got some special badges like the Community Member of the Month badge (and the Mighty Answer badge, ) awarded to those who go above and beyond to make the Community a better place.
