Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Employee recognition and rewards (R&R) software is a digital platform that helps companies acknowledge and reward employee contributions. It drives engagement and retention through peer-to-peer appreciation, milestone recognition, and centralized rewards marketplaces. Modern R&R platforms make recognition continuous, values-driven, and measurable while providing actionable data that connects directly to business outcomes.

WorkTango provides a unified cultural platform to build a culture of recognition, not just reward transactions. We embed peer-to-peer, values-based recognition into the daily workflow and back it with a zero-markup global rewards marketplace, driving measurable retention and culture impact.

Yes. Our platform is designed for both social recognition (thank yous, shout-outs) and monetary rewards (spot bonuses, incentives, awards), all tracked and managed centrally, linking every action back to company values.

Absolutely. We support multi-currency budgets, offer localized digital and physical rewards, and manage the complex tax and compliance requirements necessary to run a seamless global recognition program.

Yes. WorkTango offers the flexibility to purchase Recognition & Rewards (R&R) and Surveys & Insights (S&I) separately. However, the real power comes from integration. When used together, the data connects, allowing you to measure how recognition impacts engagement scores and identify which teams need more appreciation based on survey feedback.

Our integrated platform allows R&R data to directly inform the Surveys & Insights module. This helps leaders see the ROI of culture spend, correlate recognition with retention rates, and turn recognition into a leading indicator for team health and engagement risk. 

Absolutely. Employees without daily computer access use the mobile app on their phones or shared kiosks to participate, receive, and redeem recognition. This ensures manufacturing workers, retail associates, healthcare staff, and field teams get the same recognition experience as desk-based employees.
