Testimonials

What our customers say

I love being able to see the full feed of the entire university… before Awardco, I had no idea what was happening in other departments. Being able to see what’s happening across the university really helps you feel more connected.

We needed something to unify our recognition programmes for all our different locations, and we found that and more with Awardco.

Awardco helps create a sense of community and appreciation that we need with so many remote employees.
Ryan H.
HR Generalist
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.
Amber Lease
Human Resource Director
Southern Oregon Head Start
From the start, Awardco impressed us with their superior product...their team was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and it felt like the right solution for our company's needs.

[Awardco] was something that was easy to use. I knew that healthcare provider's first priority is their patient, so how do we make it so easy that they can participate and still make sure that they're still taking care of the patient.

Employee Experience Manager

Team members are more willing to call out team members for a job well done since the Awardco is easy and user-friendly. We are very happy with the platform.

I've been using Awardco for our Monthly Wellness Challenges for over a year. Each month, I create a themed EARN programme, and participants are entered into a points-based drawing. Awardco has helped me build consistent programming, schedule ahead, and never worry about delays. The reporting tools capture participation and top performers, offering insights that have truly transformed our Wellness Programme. Even our most tech-challenged employees use the platform with ease. We've received nothing but positive feedback from employees who had been asking for more recognition.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Awardco automate employee data and HRIS integration?
 

Awardco can connect with an organisation’s HRIS or employee data source to keep employee records up to date. Depending on the organisation’s systems and requirements, data can be exchanged through a native HRIS integration, API, SFTP file feed, or another supported connection.

HR teams can typically define the data fields Awardco receives, the sync cadence, and how changes such as new hires, transfers, and departures are handled. This can reduce manual user-file maintenance and help keep eligibility, permissions, reporting, and automated programmes aligned with the organisation’s current employee data.

How granularly can HR admins control roles and permissions?
 

Awardco supports configurable roles and permissions so organisations can determine who can access specific administrative functions, programmes, budgets, reports, and employee data.

For example, an organisation may give a programme administrator access to one programme, provide a regional administrator access to one country or entity, or give finance and payroll teams broader reporting access. Visibility can also be structured around organisational metadata, such as region, department, or employee group.

This allows organisations to delegate day-to-day administration while maintaining appropriate control over sensitive data and platform settings.

Can Awardco automate onboarding, birthdays, anniversaries, and other employee lifecycle programmes?
 

Yes. Awardco can use employee data and programme rules to support automated moments such as onboarding, birthdays, work anniversaries, and service milestones.

Admins can configure the relevant eligibility rules, timing, award amounts, communications, and recipients. Once configured, these programmes can run consistently without requiring HR teams to track every employee milestone manually.

How do Awardco approval workflows work?
 

Awardco can route awards and nominations through configurable approval workflows. Organisations can set rules based on factors such as award type, value, programme, employee group, or organisational structure.

Workflows may include one or more approval levels and can direct requests to managers, programme owners, budget owners, or other designated approvers. This helps HR teams create consistent review processes while reducing reliance on email-based approvals.

Can manager budgets be created and replenished automatically?
 

Yes. Organisations can configure manager budgets using rules such as headcount, direct reports, employee groups, programmes, or other organisational data.

Budgets may be reloaded on a recurring schedule, such as weekly, monthly, or quarterly, and organisations can define rules for rollover, allocation, and access. This helps HR teams maintain consistent funding without manually calculating and assigning every manager’s budget.

Budget visibility and management can also be limited through roles, permissions, and programme configuration.

Can HR teams manage global, regional, and entity-specific programmes from one platform?
 

Yes. Awardco can support centrally governed programmes with localised rules and experiences for different countries, regions, entities or employee groups.

Depending on the organisation’s configuration, administrators can use employee data such as country, location, entity or department to determine eligibility, programme access, available rewards, currencies, languages and redemption options.

This allows global HR teams to maintain a consistent platform while adapting recognition and rewards programs to local organisational needs.

Employee recognition that truly rewards.

Build culture, incentivise performance and drive engagement with meaningful recognition and rewards—without adding hassle or complications.
