Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our leaderboard integration services.
Can Capermint integrate leaderboards into my existing app or game?
Yes. We integrate leaderboards into existing apps and games built with Unity, Unreal, Android, iOS, React Native, Flutter, or even custom engines and platforms.
Is the leaderboard system secure and tamper-proof?
We build it to resist tampering. All score submissions are validated through server-side logic to block cheating and manual manipulation. Anti-cheat mechanisms can also be customised to your rules.
Can I customise how the leaderboard looks and works?
Yes. The UI, scoring rules, and ranking logic are fully customisable. You can set daily, weekly, or event-based resets, different filters (like regional or friend-based), and choose how it's displayed inside your product.
What types of leaderboards can you build?
We support:
- • Global leaderboards
- • Country or city-based rankings
- • Friend-only boards
- • Tournament-style leaderboards
- • Real-time and time-limited leaderboards
Does it support offline mode or score caching?
Yes. If a player is offline, the system will cache the score and sync it securely once the device reconnects — so gameplay remains smooth.
Can I track user data and performance through analytics?
Yes. We provide a dedicated admin dashboard to track scoring, leaderboard participation, and key user engagement metrics.
What kind of support does Capermint provide after integration?
We offer ongoing technical support, bug fixes, feature upgrades, and assistance with scaling or modifying your leaderboard over time.
