Why celebrate work anniversaries?

Service anniversaries provide a powerful opportunity to show appreciation, reinforce a sense of belonging, and remind employees that their contributions truly matter.

It's a built-in way to say thanks every year.

Engagement is a buzzword for a reason—because engaged employees are productive, happy employees. But it’s not just about business outcomes, engaged employees actually drive better outcomes from top to bottom.

What customers say

Awardco has provided significant time savings. Our previous programme was clunky, manual, and time consuming. Now, with the automation capabilities available through Awardco, my team saves 5-8 hours a week!
Kymberlee Stephens
Director of Employee Experience and Wellness
Pacific Life
 
 
We do a lot of remote work activities where you can win something. We do a lot of these contests, and I used to go to Amazon and send a $25 gift card to the winners, but now I do it through Awardco. It's in the system, trackable, and much more streamlined.
Amberlee Taylor
Sr. Communications Specialist
PMG
 
 
Awardco checked all the boxes for us, from onboarding all the way up to senior leadership.
Pam Buyers
Head of Culture
Awardco not only ensures each employee receives the recognition they deserve from the company, but it provides a meaningful way for team members to shine a spotlight on each other's contributions daily, which would otherwise be nearly impossible to do with our 100% remote workforce.
Lindsay Obrentz
Vice President, Marketing and Communications
America First Credit Union
 
 
Previously every manager hand-wrote a message to their employees every six months thanking them for their hard work, and it was all tied in with the bonus distribution. It was very high-touch, very labour intensive, and we had the process down to a science. We liked the connections that formed between managers and employees as a result of this programme, but after COVID-19 most of our workforce went remote. Our semi-annual tradition wasn't possible any longer, nor was it feasible.
Kent Streuling
SVP of HR
Paramount
 
 
There are so many [reward] options, and everyone is already used to Amazon and knows what they can get. In the past, we had a catalogue of items, and it didn't feel like it would fit with our new demographic.
Shaye McCoy
Senior Analyst Total Rewards
Colonial Pipeline
 
 
What we found most that sold us on Awardco over everyone else, not only was the platform very easy to use, but that partnership with Amazon is phenomenal.
Imran Merchant
Total Rewards Manager
PMG
 
 
Our recognition was all over the place before. Awardco brought everything into one centralised, impactful platform.
Pam Buyers
Head of Culture at PMG
Alera Group
 
 
We do an annual engagement survey, and we do see a lot of comments from people saying they love to work here because of the people they work with. We get a lot of good comments about working with others.
Pam Johnson
VP of Human Resources
Alera Group
 
 
And so Awardco has allowed people to recognise their coworkers in a public way, and we see it every day. Collaboration is in the DNA of Alera Group, and appreciation is absolutely central and core to effective collaboration.
Kristie White
Organisational Development
PMG
 
 
I really appreciate how myKudos [Awardco] offers different ‘classifications’ of shoutouts, so no matter how someone went above and beyond, there’s a way to recognise it. We work with some incredible people, and it’s important to celebrate them however we can.
Colby Green

Beckman Coulter
 
 
From a reporting standpoint, Awardco excels by allowing users to access desired reports quickly through easily accessible links, eliminating the need to navigate through multiple pages as was the case with previous platforms. The platform has garnered significant positive feedback for its user-friendly nature and seamless navigation.
Kerie Rogers
HR Operations Leader
Southern Oregon Head Start
 
 
For us to onboard a staff member, it's probably close to about 5,000 to 6,000 dollars. As a nonprofit, I feel like going to Awardco has been a huge cost-savings advantage.
Amber Lease
Human Resource Director
Awardco offers such a clean design, way ahead of its competitors, along with excellent offerings, great analytics, and wonderful customer service.
Anonymous

PMG
 
 
Positive recognition is contagious, and myKudos [Awardco] serves as an incredible platform to uplift others, celebrate their wins, and inspire everyone to give their best to PMG and our clients.
