myCred Video is an add-on for the popular myCred points and rewards system in WordPress. It lets you award points to users for engaging with video content embedded on your site. The plugin works with YouTube and Vimeo embeds, among other platforms that follow WordPress's standard embed handling. Instead of simply displaying videos, you can turn every view, completed watch, or interaction into a meaningful reward. That encourages visitors to spend more time with your tutorials, product demos, course lessons, or community clips. The add-on is built on top of myCred, so it uses the same point types, badges, and leaderboards you already have in place. You control how many points a video is worth, which videos are trackable, and which user roles are eligible for rewards. When a video is embedded through the standard WordPress embed block or shortcode, the add-on detects it and applies the reward rules you have defined. Those rules can be different for each video, giving you fine-grained control over the whole engagement system.
Setting up rewards requires no advanced coding. After activating the add-on, you can assign point values to different actions, such as starting a video, watching a certain percentage, or finishing it completely. Since version 1.3.0, partial completion is supported, so you can give tiered points based on how much of a video a user actually watched. The plugin tracks watch time through the video player's API and awards points automatically once the criteria you set are met. A built-in anti-fraud system detects bot-like behavior and prevents repeat abuse from the same visitor. You can also monitor each user's progress, seeing which videos they watched, how far they got, and how many points they earned. The admin area records this data for every user, giving you a clear picture of how your audience interacts with video. If needed, you can manually grant points through the settings to handle one-off situations or correct a missed reward.
This add-on fits many types of WordPress sites. Online courses can reward students for completing video lessons. Membership sites can encourage subscribers to watch exclusive content. E-commerce stores can award points for viewing product demonstrations or customer testimonials. News outlets and media sites can incentivize viewers to watch report segments instead of just scrolling past. Community platforms can gamify interaction with user-generated videos. Because the integration is built on myCred, every award feeds into the same points economy as other actions like comments, logins, or purchases. Shortcodes are available for embedding reward-enabled video players or displaying a user's video progress. You can also use shortcode parameters to control how reward messages appear next to the player. The admin interface is clean and straightforward, and the plugin is fully responsive on mobile devices. Developers can extend its behavior through hooks and filters, allowing custom reward conditions or deeper connections to other plugins.
