If we retain a teacher, that’s 20 students we get to serve. Going from 45% turnover to 8% means we’ve kept 85–90 more staff. That’s an incredible impact on both our children and our budget.

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.

Our main goal was to move platforms and not lose traction because the use of the platform was so important to us. And we were able to do that. We were able to meet that goal and we exceeded that goal.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can Awardco provide automated, payroll-ready reports or feeds?
 

Yes. Awardco can provide reporting and supported integrations for payroll and finance processes.

Depending on the organization’s systems, data may be delivered through a native integration, API, SFTP file feed, scheduled report, or another supported method. Reports may include employee information, program details, award or redemption amounts, dates, taxable status, earning codes, cost centers, and other configured fields.

The available fields, delivery cadence, tax logic, and integration method depend on the organization’s payroll systems, countries, data structure, and implementation requirements.

‍

How will Finance reconcile awards, redemptions, invoices, returns, and cost centers?
 

Awardco reporting can help Finance teams compare platform activity with budgets, redemption transactions, account balances, and invoices.

Depending on the organization’s configuration, reports may show who received or redeemed points, what was redeemed, the value and date of the transaction, program and cost-center information, returns, terminations, and remaining balances.

Invoice timing and reconciliation rules can vary by funding model, reward type, fulfillment process, and account setup. Finance teams should confirm the exact accounting workflow and reporting fields during implementation.

Can we offer employee choice while controlling cash, tax, and compliance exposure?
 

Organizations can configure reward programs and catalogs around their financial, tax, and compliance policies.

Depending on the organization and country, employees may be offered options such as gift cards, products, experiences, charitable giving, merchandise, or cash-based rewards where supported. Finance teams can use program rules, catalog controls, approval workflows, and reporting to help manage which options are available.

Reward value and tax treatment vary by reward type and jurisdiction, so organizations should review the available options with their Finance, payroll, and tax teams.

Break employee satisfaction records—not budgets

Rewards and recognition should take headaches away from finance instead of adding to them. Make it happen with Awardco.
