How to check your Arcade points

Make your Google Skills profile public, copy the correct URL, analyze it, and understand each part of the results dashboard.

You only need a public Google Skills profile URL. Arcade Points does not require your Google password or a Google sign-in.

1. Open your Google Skills profile

Sign in to Google Skills, open your profile page, and locate the public profile or sharing settings. Your public URL normally contains skills.google/public_profiles/ followed by your profile identifier.

2. Make the profile public

Enable public profile visibility so the badge list can be viewed without signing in. Open the copied URL in a private or incognito window to confirm that the profile and badges are visible publicly.

3. Copy the complete profile URL

Copy the URL from the browser address bar. Avoid copying a dashboard URL, course URL, badge URL, shortened link, or a page that still requires sign-in.

4. Analyze the profile

Return to the Arcade Points calculator, paste the URL into the profile field, and select Analyze profile. The tool retrieves public badge information and calculates supported points.

5. Read your score

  • Total points: the estimated sum of recognized badge categories.
  • Point breakdown: the contribution from game, skill, trivia, completion, and special badges.
  • Unknown badges: badges that are visible but do not yet have a verified point mapping.
  • Tier progress: the next point threshold and your estimated qualifying tier.
  • Facilitator: separate progress or bonus information when supported.

6. Understand limited reward slots

Reaching a point threshold does not always guarantee a reward. Some tiers have limited quantities and may be assigned based on program rules, timing, verification, region, or availability. Treat the displayed tier as an estimate until confirmed by official communications.

Common errors

The profile URL is rejected

Confirm that you copied a public profile URL rather than a badge, course, or signed-in dashboard URL.

No badges are found

Open the URL in an incognito window. If the profile is hidden or requires sign-in, update its visibility and try again.

The score looks incomplete

Review the unknown badge section. New or renamed badges may need to be verified before they can be included in the point total.

The request times out

Wait briefly and retry. Temporary network, upstream profile, or service availability issues can interrupt analysis.

Accuracy and official results
