Active Participants are contacts who can login to Makerble
Why have Active Participants?
Make your contacts Active Participants when you want to
spark agency among your contacts
inspire your contacts to take action themselves to achieve outcomes
create a community of practice where contacts can provide each other with peer-to-peer support, encouragement and where appropriate, friendly competition.
What are Active Participants?
On Makerble you have colleagues and contacts.
Contacts are usually a project’s beneficiaries - i.e. the people being supported
sometimes they might also be referral partners, signposting partners, funders.
Colleagues are usually your staff and volunteers
How it works
By default a contact is simply a record and a contact cannot login
When you make a contact an Active Participant, it means they can now login to Makerble
Participant Credits allow your Active Participants to login and use Makerble.
Each Participant Credit gives an Active Participant access to 1 project for 1 month
For example, an Active Participant with access to e.g. 3 projects for e.g. 6 months, would use 18 Participant Credits
You can purchase additional Participant Credits by emailing billing@makerble.com
Get Started with Active Participants
Invite contacts to become Active Participants - i.e. add Contacts to a Managed Progress Board

Example 1 - Employment service
The organisation pays £4.95/app/user/month for each Colleague to use Makerble.
The organisation does not pay based on the number of Contacts who are registered on Makerble.
But if the organisation wants a young person to be able to login to Makerble in order to
journal their progress towards finding a job, e.g. posting updates about interviews secured, job applications made, courses they have attended, etc.
see the progress posted by other young people who are looking for a job
and see the updates logged by their Careers Advisor…
…the organisation could buy some a block of Participant Credits which would give each young person access to Makerble.
