Awardco has made employees' lives easier. Working outside in the elements with the customers can be tough, but being recognized, seen, heard, and valued makes it easier.
Christina Castro
Training Leader
What I like best about Awardco is how easy they make it to receive your chosen reward. I selected a gift card and was given several ways to redeem it—perfect since I don't have a printer at home. I simply had an e-copy sent to my email! More than anything, it felt amazing to be recognized. In a previous job, recognition was rare, so knowing my hard work and dedication were noticed really boosted my confidence. Even a small gesture like this goes a long way in lifting morale.

We've given our employees something they never had before: the power to choose their own rewards. And if that wasn't enough, we save money because the products aren't marked up! Awardco truly brought our recognition programs into the 21st century.

Director of HR
ARUP Laboratories
There is never a good time to switch to a new system, but I also know that employees were eager for something new. Awardco has given us incredible power and flexibility with our recognition programs because of the millions of options to choose from, and the ability for employees to choose their own rewards has been a game changer. We know what we're getting, we know we're getting the best price, and our employees couldn't be happier.
Cheryl Vincent
Talent Development Manager
Alera Group
Colleagues have to choose a value from The Collaborative Way when they recognize, making our recognition feed daily proof of why our values are so important. It’s such a powerfully positive place. Leaders are really taking notice—they want to see their teams at the top of the adoption leaderboard because they know the impact our values have on employee performance and retention.
