Traditional recognition programs reward employees with plaques, pins, or a limited catalog of gifts. But tchotchkes aren't truly motivational to employees. Employees want rewards that are genuinely useful, rewards they deeply desire. Awardco has revolutionized employee recognition systems by providing employees with unlimited choices in their rewards. Your employees can pick from the millions of products sold on Amazon, vacations through Expedia, and tickets to concerts, Broadway plays, and sporting events. Whether your employee wants a tandem bicycle, tickets to One Direction, a new iPad mini, or a trip to Milan, they can earn it all! Nothing is more motivational than unlimited options.

CEO
Awardco’s founder and CEO, Steve Sonnenberg, learned a great deal watching his father’s career in employee recognition with companies like McDonald’s—but something was missing. In 2011, Steve began working on plans to use new, innovative technology to solve the pitfalls of traditional employee recognition programs: burdensome processes, exorbitant markups, and limited redemption options. Awardco was born shortly after, and Steve’s vision has resonated deeply within an industry in desperate need of change. Awardco is the fastest-growing rewards and recognition platform in the world as ranked by Inc. Magazine for the last 2 consecutive years, and more clients than ever are experiencing a better way to recognize.
