Turn appreciation into ROI

Texas Roadhouse
We needed a way to unify our recognition programs across all our locations, and we found that and more with Awardco.

Citizens Business Bank
How can we better recognize our team members on a day-to-day basis? One of our engagement survey questions asks, 'In the last seven days, have you been recognized for doing good work?' Awardco really allows us to do that and to do a better job of it.

Each year, we encourage our associates to get their annual physical. If you submit a form, you receive Awardco points. It’s another way to connect a healthy lifestyle to what matters to us at the bank: making an impact on our associates.

We used to give everyone a trophy at our annual event. Now, we reward true top performers. Awardco enables smarter, more meaningful recognition and spending.

The product we’re putting out is a lot of fun, but it’s not easy to do what we do every single week. People are working incredibly hard, and if they feel like just another cog in the machine, that can get disheartening really quickly. Taking that extra time to show appreciation for above-and-beyond effort is really important and reinforces good relationships.

We chose Awardco following a focus group review. It was a unanimous decision. Everyone loved how clean, easy, and intuitive Awardco was, especially the ‘Who do you want to recognize?’ prompt that appears as soon as you log in.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Awardco help manufacturers support deskless and plant-floor employees?
 

Awardco helps manufacturers create recognition experiences that are easier to access across plant, warehouse, field, and other deskless environments. This gives companies a more practical way to support participation across the workforce instead of relying on a recognition experience built only for office-based employees.

‍

Does Awardco offer mobile access for manufacturing employees?
 

Yes. Awardco offers mobile-friendly access and a mobile app experience that helps employees participate on the go. This is especially important for manufacturers that need recognition to be easier to access across shifts, sites, and workforce types.

Can Awardco support recognition across multiple plants or locations?
 

Yes. Awardco helps manufacturers create a more consistent recognition program across locations while still supporting local flexibility where needed. This makes it easier to scale recognition across plants, teams, and business units within one broader platform strategy.

Can Awardco help replace manual service awards or outdated reward programs?
 

Yes. Awardco helps manufacturers move away from manual reward processes, disconnected workflows, and older recognition programs by bringing recognition, reward choice, and program administration into one platform. This gives teams a more scalable and easier-to-manage approach over time.

Can Awardco help recognition feel more fair across hourly and salaried teams?
 

Awardco helps manufacturers create a more accessible and consistent recognition experience across different workforce groups. This can help organizations reduce the risk of recognition being concentrated only among office-based or more connected employees.

Can Awardco help manufacturers improve engagement and retention?
 

Awardco helps manufacturers create a more visible, consistent employee recognition experience across the workforce. This can support stronger engagement, reinforce culture, and help recognition become a more active part of the employee experience over time.
