Every badge below is drawn with the label system's real hex geometry and type, so what you see is what would sit in the badge row. Each one is a fact a product can earn — and once earned, it never expires.
JULY 22, 2026 · CONCEPTS ONLY — NOTHING DEPLOYED
Why milestones age best: a label might sit on a bin for a year or two between reprints. "Top seller" can stop being true; "crossed 500 lbs" cannot. Every badge here is either a crossed threshold (✓ only gets truer), a year-stamped honor (like a wine vintage — historically true forever), or a human choice. The tier ladders also give regulars something to notice: "the cashews made the Ton Club."
Size check — how a ladder reads on the bin
Badges at actual label-row scale (140px, shrinking as more share the row), next to the existing cert badges they'd live with.
The honesty rules baked in
Every badge is a verifiable fact: poundage and scoop clubs come from the one-time Square all-time backfill (then a weekly increment) — no badge prints until its threshold is confirmed crossed in real data. Refill counts come from received POs. Year-stamped honors freeze a real annual result. Staff Pick is the only "soft" badge, and it says so on its face. Nothing rank-based ever prints without a year on it.
If a set wins your vote, shipping = add the winners to BADGE_DEFS (both renderers), auto-award from a labelStats lookup at print time, opt-in per label, badges only join the row at natural reprints — no-reflow rule holds, no mass reprint.
