FAQS

There are no stupid questions. Don't let them get in the way. Explore answers to some of our most frequently asked questions regarding Komo.

What is gamification?

Simply put, gamification is the integration of gaming mechanics into something preexisting—from training programmes to websites—in order to increase engagement and participation. Notice the term “gaming mechanics” and how it differs from “games,” as this is a key difference between the two.

Gamification does not inherently mean gaming. Instead, it is the utilization of gaming elements into the structure of something. In this way, it has a specific business-driven purpose beyond simple enjoyment.
