Testimonials

What our customers say

I’ve been able to see how much recognition has changed since we started using Awardco. From an admin perspective, it’s become so much more manageable and has saved me countless hours. Birthdays, anniversaries, and new-hire milestones are all automated through Workday, new hires get points at 30 and 60 days, and employees are recognized automatically for birthdays and anniversaries.

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.

We love to catch our team members doing great things! They can’t pour into others from an empty cup. That’s why we invest in recognition and take the time to celebrate our people.

Before Awardco we had no idea how many gift cards were going out or when, but now we have real-time budgetary updates. It's been a game changer.
Jodi Gonzales
HR Manager
America First Credit Union
Before Awardco, our nominations programs were scattered and siloed... a survey here, a form there. It wasn't a very cohesive experience, and there wasn't really one consistent way to do things. Now, it's become a one-stop shop. If I want to recognize a milestone, give a shoutout, or nominate someone for an award, staff and facility know exactly where to go.

Appreciation Specialist, People & Culture
Utah Valley University
We show our appreciation to our fans and our season ticket members in a variety of ways. Everybody has different preferences and what's meaningful to them. People are so excited that it's something they can only get being a season ticket member.

Our frontline workers are the core of what we do and the core of our customer experience. We launched Microsoft Teams for all employees. We have the Awardco interface added to the platform, so our employees can now recognize each other directly from their phones on their app while they're working. If they see a great job, they can do an immediate shout out and make that difference.

It has been exciting to see the increased engagement around recognition, and how the platform has encouraged team members to support each other in new ways.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do Awardco points map to gift card value?
 
Awardco helps make reward value easier to manage and understand by giving organizations a consistent framework for how points are structured across their programs. That simplicity can help employees better understand what they have, while giving admins and finance teams clearer visibility into budgets, usage, and reward value.
‍
Can Awardco support custom or manually fulfilled gift cards?
 
Awardco supports configured custom or manually fulfilled reward workflows with tracking, approvals, and visibility. Standard gift cards can be automated; physical or external items may require customer or vendor fulfillment, and availability, shipping, and fees vary by item and country.
Does Awardco offer local gift card options for global teams?
 
Awardco helps global organizations create a more locally relevant reward experience by supporting options that align more closely with employee location and market needs. That makes it easier for companies to offer reward choice that feels more useful and accessible across different countries and regions.
Can employees choose more than gift cards in Awardco?
 
Yes. Gift cards can be part of the experience, but Awardco is designed to give employees broader reward choice beyond a single reward type. That helps organizations offer a more flexible experience so employees can choose rewards that feel more relevant and personal to them.
Can Awardco replace manual gift card reward programs?
 
Yes. Awardco helps organizations move beyond manually buying, mailing, tracking, and reconciling gift cards by bringing reward delivery, visibility, and administration into one platform. That gives teams a more scalable way to manage employee rewards while reducing the spreadsheets, handoffs, and follow-up that often come with manual gift card programs.
