Incentives that drive behaviour

Not every incentive needs to be life-changing to be effective—micro incentives are built to subtly reinforce and reward behaviours without taking too much time or effort on admins’ part. And the results don’t lie.

Custom incentive programs

Small behaviours. Big impact.

Build micro incentives to drive almost any behavior, small or large, and let automation minimize administrative hassle.

How it works

Build programs people actually use

STEP 1

Create goal-oriented micro incentives

What do you hope employees will do with a little more motivation?

STEP 2

Set specific parameters

Who qualifies to participate in the micro incentive? Cater these to teams, locations, or other employee data.

STEP 3

Decide on the reward for participation

What point amount is the right reward for the action?

Testimonials

What our customers say

Awardco has made employees' lives easier. Working outside in the elements with the customers can be tough, but being recognized, seen, heard, and valued makes it easier.

What I love most is the reporting aspect. It's something that reinforces the impact of Awardco, and it shows that the work we're doing is paying off.

Since joining, I’ve found myKudos [Awardco] posts to be a great way to learn what others are doing across the agency. I’ve even picked up ideas from shoutouts that I’ve been able to implement on my own accounts. It’s more than recognition—it’s a source of inspiration.

There's plenty of research that shows the compounding impact of how when other people can see recognition, it creates that snowball effect. And so it just makes people work better together. They feel more as part of the team.

Just managing our custom rewards felt like a full-time job with our previous vendor—it took all day every Friday. With Awardco, I don't have to do any of the manual fulfillment work anymore. I'm saving 6-8 hours a week, just managing orders.

Caregivers want more than a paycheque—they want to feel valued. Recognition makes that possible.
Sarah Mazzocco
Chief People Officer
Americare Senior Living
How do we better recognize our associates on the day to day? One of our engagement survey questions is, 'In the last seven days, have you been recognized for doing good work?' Awardco really allows us to to do that and to do a better job of that.
Jenny Ketchepaw
VP, Talent Engagement
Citizens Business Bank
Through our work phones, we get an email when we’ve earned points, and then we can log in to see our total, explore reward options, and decide how we want to use them. It stays top of mind throughout the day—whether we’re driving or working at customer sites.
