See how teams succeed with Awardco

Children's Nebraska
People are busy. It's hard. We have our highest volumes we've ever had with patients. But when people take the time to celebrate one another, then we can really see that hope and that goodness beyond that. And so I really think that why we're successful is because our team cares about one another, and they take the time to recognise one another.
Madeline Quinn
Employee Experience Manager

The onboarding process was very encouraging. We weren't given the programme and told to figure it out on our own—we've had someone to lean on the entire time, someone who helped us navigate this big, company-wide change.
Ryan Zellner
Marketing & Corporate Communications Manager
Children's Nebraska
Some of the great stories that we've read are how impactful all of the team members have been to help the children feel better, it's showing our team members how impactful they are.
Jill Kudron
Patient Experience
Ampirical
Our client success rep helped us create a training and recording module of the platform to show employees how to properly use it. You rarely find a company willing to spend the time to make sure you're properly equipped.

We were looking for a solution that rewarded folks in their own currency, and Awardco delivers!

With Awardco we now have more visibility into our incentive budgets than ever, and can be more judicious about our incentive spend.

We really like the redemption options and how Awardco integrates with Amazon — the platform's ease-of-use has empowered us to handle our growing employee population.
Monica Delgado
Senior Manager of Total Rewards
Percepta
Our operational leaders really appreciate how easy it is to reward their teams through the Awardco platform, irrespective of global location. For the staff that are receiving recognition, being able to access and spend the points straight away enhances the perceived value of the reward.
