Reward Cycles

Create and automate reward programs for your org.

Updated this week

Automating your Reward Program helps Super Admins deliver a consistent recognition experience and reduce redundant work. Reward Program capabilities include automated reward cycles for nomination-based awards and a single dashboard view into all reward cycles. They can easily set up and manage reward cycles, allocate budgets, and schedule nominations without constant oversight, saving time and simplifying administration.

Setting up reward programs

Follow these steps to automate reward cycles and drive higher adoption of your recognition and rewards (R&R) program.

Step 1: Navigate to Home > Recognize > Admin Settings and select Reward Programs.

Step 2: Click “Create a New Reward Program” at the top left corner of the platform.

Step 3: Start by entering the details of your reward program such as:

  • Program Name

  • Description

Step 4: Select the awards you want to include in the program from the drop-down menu.

Step 5: Enter the number of points you wish to allocate for the reward cycle. Once done, click “Continue”.

The budget information is for tracking planned vs. actual spending. It does not impose any functional limitations.

Step 6: Set Up the Reward Program

Choose participants for the program. Select the user group expected to give awards or submit nominations by clicking the pen icon.

You can add everyone or specific users by selecting the appropriate option. Use filters to refine users by designation, department and more. Click “Save and Continue” to proceed.

Selected users will receive email announcements, view program banners, and more.

Step 7: Customize the Reward Program

Super Admins can customize the reward program by setting the start and end dates for collecting nominations. Awards will automatically be visible to participants.
