Maintaining a home is a marathon, not a sprint. The hard part is not knowing what to do - it is staying consistent when nothing feels urgent. That is why Domuss includes a points, badges and progress system designed to make maintenance enjoyable and easy to follow, without losing sight of the real goal: a healthy, compliant home.
Why gamify home maintenance?
Most owners know the important deadlines (boiler, chimney sweeping, ventilation) but postpone action until it is too late. Gamification brings three proven psychological levers:
- Immediate reward - Every useful action earns visible points.
- Intermediate goals - Badges and stages give reachable targets.
- Positive identity - Moving from “Novice” to “Domuss Master” reinforces the image of a responsible owner.
The Domuss system in brief
Domuss combines two progress tracks:
| Track | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Per home | Points + 28 badges + 5 stages | ”My Home” → Household guardian |
| Owner profile | Aggregated points + 8 global badges | Domuss Ambassador |
Stages per property
- Novice (0-99 pts) - First steps
- Apprentice (100-299 pts) - The inventory takes shape
- Household guardian (300-599 pts) - Regular maintenance
- Home expert (600-999 pts) - Complete file
- Domuss Master (1000+ pts) - Excellence
Badges that actually matter
Badges do not reward time spent in the app, but concrete actions:
- First step - Create your home
- On time - 5 deadlines met
- Archivist - 3 documents in the file
- Regular - 7 consecutive days of activity
- Perfectionist - Maintenance score ≥ 90%
And on the global owner side: Multi-owner, Master of roofs, Domuss Legend…
Points: how it works
| Action | Points |
|---|---|
| Create a home | +50 |
| Add equipment | +20 |
| Deadline met on time | +30 |
| Intervention recorded | +25 |
| Document archived | +15 |
Badges themselves also grant bonus points, speeding progress toward the next stage.
Streaks: the snowball effect
Opening Domuss once a day maintains a consecutive-day streak. At 7 days you unlock the Regular badge; at 30 days, Assiduous. This turns an occasional visit into a weekly habit - exactly what you need to never miss a chimney sweep or boiler service.
Gamification ≠ distraction
Unlike apps that reward scrolling, Domuss only awards points for real maintenance actions. No points for watching an ad or filling an empty profile. The maintenance score (0-100%) and the Perfectionist / Annual champion badges stay aligned with your home’s compliance.
In short: Domuss gamification is a habit accelerator, not an end in itself. The more you maintain, the more you progress - and the more your home gains value.
