# Badges ### **What are Badges?** Badges on Releap allow projects to reward community members and increase engagement using On-Chain Credential modules. On-Chain Credentials function as a digital record for your blockchain activities. In addition, credentials are proof of a person's abilities, accomplishments, character traits, or other components of their background. Credentials can be used to identify key actions that you may want to reward. Projects and individual users can create a campaign that allows users to mint customized badges. These badges can be used in addition to marketing campaigns, as a Proof-of-Interaction and more. #### Use Cases * A commemorative badge for the launch of a project * Badges can be used as a Whitelist pass * A badge for listeners who join a specific space * A badge for users who donate to a good cause * And more --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
