The ability to customize the platform and call it 'MyKudos' made it feel like a true extension of our brand and culture.

We can now give a shoutout to someone even if they’re in a different location—something we couldn’t do before. It just makes it easy when it’s all in one place.

Employees look forward to seeing their monthly Safety All-Star points. Those conversations happen in lunchrooms, dressing rooms—it becomes part of our culture.

What's most helpful is the freedom Awardco gives employees to choose how they'd like to spend their reward. Instead of managers handing out gift cards that might not be relevant, I can build contests or recognition programs right from my budget. It reduces expense reports and boosts engagement—especially with non-monetary rewards like peer-to-peer recognition. Their customer service is also top-notch: fast, efficient, and always helpful. I brag about Awardco almost daily.

Being a nurse, I know that oftentimes it's hard to keep coming back day after day. It often goes without recognition or gratitude, but Sunshine has given us the opportunity to empower our team and our leaders with the ability to recognize others. We're proud to have seen such high engagement from our team members submitting recognitions on the platform.

The Awardco platform enables us to reach our global employee base (4,500 and growing) easily and effectively.

Within AOCC, we’ve built peer nominations into the process. The more recognitions a team member receives, the more points they earn toward winning a High Flyer award. This has fostered real cohesion, inclusivity, and teamwork across the department.

The flexible rewards offered are my favorite part. Rather than giving gift cards or merchandise that individuals might not use, they get to decide what they want.
