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

When we implemented Awardco, we refreshed everything and synced all service dates to our HRIS. It works flawlessly now—and the person who used to manage that spreadsheet is very happy.
Dawn Bloch
Chief People Officer
NIBCO
Awardco made it easy for every employee, whether in Dallas or the UK, to feel seen, valued, and celebrated.
Pam Buyers
Head of Culture
PMG
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.
Colby Green
Paid Social Senior Associate
PMG
We've tied rewards to wellness in the sense that every year, we encourage our associates to go get their annual physical. If they show proof, they get points. It's another way to tie healthy lifestyles to what's important to us in the bank, making an impact with our associates.
Jenny Ketchepaw
VP, Talent Engagement
Citizens Business Bank
Through our work phones, we get an email when we’ve earned points, and then we can log in to see our total, explore reward options, and decide how we want to use them. It stays top of mind throughout the day—whether we’re driving or working at customer sites.

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.
Madeline Quinn
Employee Experience Manager
Children's Nebraska
We’ve made myKudos [Awardco] a key part of how we work at all levels—whether you’re a people manager or an individual contributor. MyKudos is just as powerful when peers recognize each other, creating a culture of appreciation across the organization
