Awards Network is an employee gifting, recognition, and rewards platform that helps companies celebrate employees and reinforce important workplace achievements. Organizations use Awards Network to manage employee anniversary gifts, years of service awards, retirement gifts, safety awards, wellness incentives, sales incentives, performance recognition, and other milestone-based reward programs.
Our platform is designed to make employee gifting and recognition easier for employers and more meaningful for employees. Instead of sourcing, shipping, and tracking gifts manually, companies can use Awards Network to deliver a branded gift and rewards experience with a wide catalog of employee gift options, simple program administration, and reporting tools to support ongoing recognition efforts.
Awards Network’s employee gifting platform is designed to simplify employee recognition and milestone gifting for employers. Companies choose the type of gifting experience they want to offer, such as employee anniversary gifts, retirement gifts, safety awards, holiday gifts, or spot recognition, and we help set up a branded redemption experience for their employees.
Once the program is launched, eligible employees receive access to a branded redemption experience where they can choose the reward they want from a catalog of brand-name gifts, gift cards, and travel options. Awards Network handles the gifting experience from setup through fulfillment, helping employers save time while giving employees a more personal and flexible reward experience.
Companies can use Awards Network to offer a wide variety of employee recognition gifts for different occasions, budgets, and program goals. Our employee gift catalog includes brand-name merchandise across categories like home, electronics, travel, lifestyle, and more, along with gift cards and travel rewards.
This flexibility allows organizations to use Awards Network for everything from employee anniversary gifts and years of service awards to retirement gifts, safety incentives, sales incentives, wellness challenges, attendance awards, and employee appreciation gifts. Because employees can choose from a broad range of rewards, companies can offer recognition gifts that feel more personal and more relevant to individual preferences.
Yes. Awards Network is designed to give employees choice in the recognition process. Rather than sending the same gift to every recipient, employers can provide employees with access to a branded redemption experience where they can choose the gift that fits their interests and preferences.
This approach helps employee gifting programs feel more personal and more effective because recipients are able to select something they actually want. It also helps employers avoid the guesswork of choosing one universal gift for a diverse workforce.
Awards Network offers both an employee gifting platform and a points-based employee rewards platform, and each is designed for a different type of recognition strategy.
Our gift platform is best for one-time recognition moments or milestone awards, such as work anniversaries, years of service, retirement, safety awards, employee appreciation gifts, and holiday gifting. With the gift platform, employees receive access to a gift selection experience and choose a reward from a designated catalog or award level.
Our points platform is designed for ongoing employee recognition, incentives, and engagement. Instead of recognizing a single event, employers can award points over time for achievements such as performance goals, safety milestones, wellness participation, sales success, attendance, or peer recognition. Employees can then redeem those points for rewards from the Awards Network catalog. For organizations that want to build a broader culture of recognition, points-based programs offer more flexibility for continuous employee rewards and engagement.
Awards Network supports a wide range of employee gifting and recognition occasions. Companies often use our platform for work anniversaries, years of service awards, retirement gifts, employee appreciation gifts, safety awards, sales incentives, attendance awards, wellness challenges, onboarding gifts, holiday gifting, and performance-based recognition.
Because our platform supports both one-time gifting and ongoing points-based rewards, organizations can use Awards Network for milestone celebrations, formal award programs, day-to-day recognition, and incentive initiatives across many departments. This makes it easier for employers to manage multiple employee recognition programs through one partner.
Yes. Awards Network offers free shipping for gifts delivered within the 48 contiguous United States. That makes it easier for companies to budget employee gifting and recognition programs without needing to account for separate shipping charges on each order.
Free shipping also helps simplify employee anniversary gifts, service awards, retirement gifts, and other recognition programs by making program costs more predictable and easier to manage at scale.
Companies often use employee gifting because it creates a more memorable and meaningful recognition experience than sending the same generic gift card to every employee. A strong employee gifting program allows organizations to celebrate achievements with a broader range of reward options, giving employees the opportunity to choose something they genuinely want and making the recognition feel more personal.
Employee gifting can also support a wider variety of recognition strategies. Companies use it for years of service awards, retirement gifts, safety programs, employee appreciation, milestone celebrations, and incentive campaigns where the goal is to make recognition feel more special rather than transactional. When employees can choose from brand-name gifts, gift cards, or travel options through a branded company experience, the reward often feels more intentional and more aligned with the value of the achievement being recognized.
