It was such a nice surprise—I wasn’t expecting it at all. I had been debating whether to buy new shoes, and then suddenly I received a High Flyer award. That recognition made the moment even more special.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can organizations offer premium or custom experiences?
 

Organizations may be able to offer premium experiences or curated reward collections for milestones, high-value incentives, leadership programs, sales achievements, or other defined occasions.

A curated experience can help an organization offer a more intentional reward than an open-ended catalog—for example, a travel collection, a set of local activities, a premium event category, or a destination-specific selection. The available experience depends on supplier inventory, geography, budget, point value, and the organization’s configuration.

Custom or concierge-style requests should be evaluated separately. A curated catalog is not automatically the same as a fully custom itinerary, guaranteed event access, or individually arranged travel service.

Can organizations curate or restrict rewards to travel and experiences?
 

Yes, where supported by the configured marketplace, organizations can curate the reward experience or limit points to selected catalogs or reward categories.

For example, an organization may create a travel-focused catalog, offer only experience rewards for a specific program, or provide a broader marketplace while highlighting preferred options. Curated catalogs can support milestone awards, incentive campaigns, recognition programs, or premium reward paths.

The available catalog controls, category restrictions, point values, and employee visibility depend on the enabled product and configuration. Organizations should confirm whether a requested supplier, destination, event, or category can be included before promising it publicly.

Are travel and experience rewards available globally?
 

Awardco can support localized reward experiences for employees in different countries and regions. Available travel and experience options may be tailored to the employee’s location, currency, language, and local marketplace inventory.

A global program may therefore offer different hotels, events, activities, suppliers, or redemption methods in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe, Asia-Pacific, or other markets. Global availability does not mean that every experience is available in every country.

Organizations should validate country coverage, local inventory, currency treatment, employee eligibility, and regional restrictions for each population before launch.

How do employees redeem points for travel or experiences?
 

Employees typically browse the configured reward marketplace, choose an available travel or experience option, and use their points according to the program’s redemption rules.

Depending on the experience, the employee may be able to complete the purchase or booking flow through the Awardco experience or follow the applicable supplier process. The employee’s available options can depend on location, currency, inventory, dates, eligibility, and the number of points available.

The redemption experience should clearly explain the point cost, what is included, applicable restrictions, and any next steps before the employee confirms the selection.

What travel and experience rewards can employees choose from?
 

Depending on location and availability, employees may be able to use Awardco points toward travel and experiences such as:

  • Hotels and other travel-related stays
  • Tours, activities, and local attractions
  • Private rentals or other curated travel options
  • Sporting events, concerts, and theater tickets
  • Regional experiences and destination-based activities
  • Other experience rewards made available through the configured marketplace

Travel and experiences can complement gift cards, merchandise, charitable donations, and other reward categories. The available options are not identical in every country or at every point in time, so organizations should describe the offering as a configurable marketplace rather than a guaranteed list of specific items.
