Waitlist with a Leaderboard

Turn your waitlist into a race to the front of the line

A plain signup list is quiet. Add a public leaderboard and every early fan has a reason to recruit: refer friends, climb the ranks, and jump the line for earlier access or launch-day prizes. KickoffLabs runs the whole loop automatically.

Quick answer

What is a waitlist with a leaderboard?

It is a pre-launch signup list where members move up a public ranking by referring friends — a skip-the-line mechanic that rewards your biggest advocates with earlier access or prizes. KickoffLabs hosts the signup and status pages, tracks verified referrals, ranks everyone in real time, and syncs leads back to your email and SMS tools.

The skip-the-line loop, in three steps

Every signup becomes a promoter working to climb the board.

1. Join the waitlist

Leads sign up before launch and land on a status page showing their rank and personal share link.

2. Refer to climb

Each verified friend they bring in moves them up the public leaderboard and closer to the front of the line.

3. Reward the top ranks

Top referrers unlock earlier access, exclusive perks, or launch-day prizes — automatically.
