Why build nomination programs?

Drive engagement and performance

Peer recognition moments matter. These are the stories that stick. Culture shifts when nomination is inclusive, expectations are clear, and decisions are backed by data, not bias.

Easily execute better strategies

Award nomination programs lose impact without the right tools. Streamline workflows, set custom criteria, and automate communication to scale recognition without the administrative burden.

Testimonials

What our customers say

We think a lot about our frontline employees. They're the ones that make us who we are and drive our business, and we wanted to make sure they knew we appreciated them. Awardco does that.

Annasuela Fritz

HR Projects and Recognition Manager

The onboarding process was very encouraging. We weren't given the program 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

We appreciate the user-friendly interface and the ample functionality of the platform, which has enabled us to better recognize team members as well as better support end users.

Sica Simon

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

I love how simple Awardco is to use, both the main platform and the admin side, with how many reporting features it has to offer.

Companies that invest in recognition are seen as people-centric. When people feel appreciated for their contributions and are truly engaged, they’re more innovative, more creative, and more willing to think beyond the status quo. This elevates work, fuels stronger business outcomes and can foster deeper customer relationships.

Monica Gunderson

Talent Management Lead

Just managing our custom rewards felt like a full-time job with our previous vendor—it took all day every Friday. With Awardco, I don't have to do any of the manual fulfillment work anymore. I'm saving 6-8 hours a week, just managing orders.

Sara Beer

Director of Core Values

Using Awardco has given us the confidence that we've partnered with someone that knows what they're doing. We're not only saving a lot of time, but we're building the confidence of our employees as we express our appreciation to all of them worldwide.
