The Problem

End the screenshot chaos and spreadsheet nightmare.

This is how many companies run employee challenges today: screenshots by email, manual tallying, no real engagement. The result? Low participation, high effort, zero reporting.

Manual Tracking

Screenshots by email, Excel spreadsheets, manual evaluation. One charity run ties up your social club team for weeks.

Engagement dies by day 3

Without a live leaderboard, push notifications and team dynamics, every challenge loses momentum after the first week.

No measurable impact

After the challenge there's no reporting for CSR reports, employer branding or management. All that effort just evaporates.

The Real Cost

What happens when teams just work side by side — instead of together.

Poor collaboration costs companies up to €500,000 per year. Not because teams don't want to — but because they lack the opportunity to build real connections.

21%

Engagement worldwide

Only one in five employees is truly engaged according to Gallup. 4 out of 5 are just going through the motions. The cause: lack of connection within the team.

Efficiency loss

In almost three quarters of all companies, efficiency suffers from poor collaboration. Teams that don't know each other make slower decisions.

EUR costs / year

Conflicts and misunderstandings cost companies up to €500,000 per year. Staff turnover per case: €30,000–€50,000.

Not just sensible — legally relevant too.

Occupational health and safety laws across Europe require employers to evaluate and address psychological stress at work. Team-building initiatives like employee challenges are recognised health promotion measures — tax-deductible and demonstrably effective.

Strengthen team spirit with challenges that connect and move departments, offices and remote teams.

Trusted by HR teams across Europe for employee challenges.

Use Cases

The right challenge for every goal.

Whether you want to strengthen team spirit, get people moving for a good cause, or integrate new employees — Employee Challenge adapts to you.

Fitness Challenge

Steps, running, workouts — teams compete against each other. Ideal for workplace health programmes.

Charity Challenge

Movement is converted into donation equivalents. Your company donates the final amount directly. No money flows through the platform.

Team Building

Connect departments, offices or remote teams. The competition creates a sense of community — even across distances.

Onboarding

New employees integrate playfully. A challenge in the first week breaks the ice faster than any welcome meeting.

One platform. All challenges.

From setup to first check-in — the entire flow is designed for HR teams who don't have time for complex tools.

More help

Many HR teams have their challenge live in under 10 minutes. Create the challenge, customize it with your branding, share the invite link — done. No IT involvement needed.

No. employee-challenge works in the browser on any device. Participants open the invite link, join, and start tracking. No app store, no download, no friction. (A native app for wearable sync is on the roadmap.)

Fitness challenges (steps, running, workouts), charity challenges (movement converted to a donation equivalent), or fully custom challenges (reading, learning, sustainability — you define the rules).

You set a donation equivalent per activity unit (e.g., €1 per km). The platform tracks progress and displays the running total. At the end, you get a report with the final amount. The actual donation is handled by your company directly — we never touch money. Clean and simple.

All data is hosted in the EU (Frankfurt, Germany) on GDPR-compliant infrastructure. We offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) and have designed the platform specifically for compatibility with European works councils.

Both! Our platform is built to be flexible. Multiple admin accounts can be assigned, so individual teams or departments can easily create and manage their own challenges – fully independent of central HR initiatives.
