Awardco makes it really easy to select colleagues that you want to recognize, whether it's one, whether it's multiple. Recognition helps build trust with teammates and leaders.

VP of Creative
Lockton
When I joined Lockton, we didn’t have a recognition platform. It was the first thing I pushed for—because I’ve seen firsthand how important it is. People want to feel seen and validated.

This integration to our Slack channel… makes it very easy and seamless. There’s this running log of all of these shout outs, which I think is really powerful.

We were doing recognition even before we adopted this platform, but this platform made it so easy for our frontline leaders and middle managers to run the recognition program.

Managers now have visibility into real-time recognition, which makes performance reviews easier and more holistic.

I really appreciate that Awardco lets me use my points to donate to worthy causes. That flexibility—along with the option to redeem for prepaid cards or items—makes the program incredibly useful and meaningful.

We wouldn’t have chosen Awardco if it weren’t so user-friendly. It’s clean, intuitive, and seamlessly integrates with Outlook and Teams—where our people already are.
