We wanted to make recognition easy and exciting for our blue collar workers to participate in, and Awardco's capabilities have made that possible.

ClickUp
 
 
At ClickUp, we like to recognize employees on their work anniversaries. Awardco makes this infinitely easier by automating the process. Now, employees receive a timely email on the day of their anniversary along with a small gift. It's just one small way we're able to express our gratitude and now we're able to do it without any manual labor on our end.

I cannot tell you what a relief it was to be able to integrate metadata from our HRIS system so that birthdays and service awards were automatically recognized and sent to our WebPTers. This was a huge, huge accomplishment for our employee engagement.
Britney Burns
Employee Experience Program Manager
We recognize that employee choice is important and our team loves that they can spend their points on anything...from company swag (print-on-demand) to Amazon purchases, gift cards from thousands of merchants, experiences, and more.

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.

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.
Jenny Ketchepaw
VP, Talent Engagement
Awardco makes it easy to recognize people for the awesome things they do—and it's great that recognition converts to points you can spend on real products or gift cards. I love that I can send recognition directly from Slack!
Mike D.
Director of Internal Tools and Integrations
From the admin side, managing and ensuring that gifts are timely and fair is dramatically easier. Everything can be scheduled in advance and fulfillment happens automatically.

Associates love it. We've had over 95% user adoption in the first six months. It's been a huge success.

Our people use their points for vacations, holidays, gifts… it’s meaningful to them.

Sr. Director, Environment, Health & Safety
Vail Health
 
 
We were really worried that clinical staff wouldn't be able to log in, being away from their desks. But that hasn't been an issue. Our emergency department senior director, for example, uses it right on the spot. We've seen a strong showing from our clinical departments.

We haven't heard one bad thing about Awardco from our employees. It's taken off much better than we expected it to because the employees love it.

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.
