# Publish a leaderboard

> Publish your affiliate leaderboard as a branded public page anyone can view. Learn how to share it, control privacy, and turn the public page on or off.

Your leaderboard doesn't have to live inside the affiliate portal. Referly gives every program a **public leaderboard page** — a branded, standalone page anyone can view without logging in. It's a simple way to show momentum, celebrate your top affiliates, and give prospective affiliates a reason to join.

The public page is turned **on by default**, so your leaderboard is already shareable. This page covers how to open it, what visitors see, and how to control privacy or switch it off.

## Open your public page

Open **Leaderboards** from the left sidebar. When the public page is on, a **View public page** link appears next to the leaderboard title. Select it to open the page exactly as visitors see it, then copy the address from your browser to share it anywhere — your website, social posts, or a recruiting email.

## What visitors see

The public page shows your rankings wrapped in your program's branding — your logo and accent color. Visitors can:

* Switch the **time window** to see today's, this week's, or all-time standings.
* Filter the board by **country**.
* Follow a **join** link to sign up as an affiliate, so the page doubles as a recruiting tool.

They don't need an account, and they only ever see the rankings — never your dashboard or any private program data.

## Keep affiliate identities private

By default, the public page **masks affiliate names and emails**, so visitors see the standings and the metrics without seeing exactly who each affiliate is. This is usually what you want for a page anyone can reach.

To change it, open the leaderboard settings from the gear icon in the toolbar and find **Hide affiliate info from public leaderboard** under **Privacy & placement**. Turn it off only if you're confident your affiliates are happy to be named publicly.

## Turn the public page off

If you'd rather keep your leaderboard inside the portal only, open the leaderboard settings and turn off **Show the leaderboard publicly**. The public page immediately stops being reachable and the **View public page** link disappears.

<Note>
  Hiding the public leaderboard requires the **Gamification add-on** or an Enterprise plan. Without it, the public page stays on. See [Add-ons](/docs/help-center/billing/add-ons).
