Texas Roadhouse
We needed something to unify our recognition programs for all our different locations, and we found that and more with Awardco.
Storey O'Barr
Recognition and Communications Specialist
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.
Selia Wood
AVP, Talent & Engagement
Southern Oregon Head Start
If we retain a teacher, that’s 20 students we get to serve. Going from 45% turnover to 8% means we’ve kept 85–90 more staff. That’s an incredible impact on both our children and our budget.
Amber Lease
Human Resource Director
Lockton
Lockton was already great—but we were terrible at marketing how amazing it truly was. Awardco helps us amplify that greatness, especially as we grow.
Melissa York
SVP, Head of People & Culture

Our operational leaders really appreciate how easy it is to reward their teams through the Awardco platform, irrespective of global location. For the staff that are receiving recognition, being able to access and spend the points straight away enhances the perceived value of the reward.
Scott Collins

The Awardco platform boosts the innovation and productivity of employees, where a culture of creativity is embraced.

Citizens Business Bank
We've tied rewards to wellness in the sense that every year, we encourage our associates to go get their annual physical. If they show proof, they get points. It's another way to tie healthy lifestyles to what's important to us in the bank, making an impact with our associates.

VP, Talent Engagement
Lockton
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.
