Wellness Incentives

Inspire everyday healthy habits

Incentivize and reward healthy behaviors that help employees feel better, live well, and thrive —at work and in life.

The psychology of workplace well-being

Employee well-being is not a nice-to-have perk, like ping pong tables or a day off. It’s foundational to everything you're trying to accomplish such as productivity, engagement, retention, and performance.

When employees feel supported in their mental, physical, financial, and emotional well-being, they respond positively. It’s as simple as that.

Testimonials

What our customers say

It’s really meaningful to see CRPs who are out on the road by themselves, along with employees working from home, still interacting and connecting through the platform. It’s almost like our 4Refuel Facebook—bringing everyone together no matter where they’re working.
Lynne Harkness
VP, People & Culture
4Refuel
People are busy. It's hard. We have our highest volumes we've ever had with patients. But when people take the time to celebrate one another, then we can really see that hope and that goodness beyond that. And so I really think that why we're successful is because our team cares about one another, and they take the time to recognize one another.

It is a great platform that keeps our sales team highly motivated to bring in some great numbers. I would totally recommend for more business to acquire their services and implement these incentive programs.

Sales Manager
Companies that invest in recognition are seen as people-centric. When people feel appreciated for their contributions and are truly engaged, they’re more innovative, more creative, and more willing to think beyond the status quo. This elevates work, fuels stronger business outcomes and can foster deeper customer relationships.

Getting buy in for wellbeing can be kinda challenging because we're all busy. Right? And so now go work out or go do this. And so partnering with organizations such as Awardco, we're trying to think outside of the box and create different types of challenges.
Jenny Ketchepaw
VP, Talent Engagement
Citizens Business Bank
There's plenty of research that shows the compounding impact of how when other people can see recognition, it creates that snowball effect. And so it just makes people work better together. They feel more as part of the team.
Zach Makoutz
Sr. Manager, Category Sales Product

One of the best parts of myKudos [Awardco] is seeing others rally around a recognition post—commenting, reacting, and adding to the praise. I love scrolling through the kudos channel and seeing teammates from other accounts getting hyped up for the great work they’re doing. It really creates a sense of community across the agency.

Recognition fits into our strategies for turnover and helping us retain good caregivers… because everyone wants to know how they're performing. They want to know if they're doing a good job. And sometimes we forget to stop and say thank you. Recognition helps us do that easily and consistently.
