What ourcustomers say

After implementing Awardco we saw a huge influx [of recognitions]… we were riding a tidal wave. Now it’s at a sustainable level, but still significantly higher than before.

My favorite stuff are the pickleball paddles. It's nice because you don't have to pay for them — they're expensive.

The scalability of the Awardco platform makes it the perfect partner for Dubai Airports. It evolves as we evolve—allowing us to introduce new efficiencies and features while keeping recognition simple and user-friendly.

I love being able to see the full feed of the entire university… before Awardco, I had no idea what was happening in other departments. Being able to see what’s happening across the university really helps you feel more connected.

When we unified our recognition programs, we saw a strong correlation between recognition and employee engagement. Teams led by managers who consistently recognized their people were the most engaged.
