Employee recognition card FAQs
Best for managers, People teams and HR leaders making individual achievements visible through specific messages from colleagues.
- 1
When should we send an employee recognition card?
Use one when specific work deserves a personal response, including project milestones, promotions, customer praise, teamwork and everyday support. Sending while the achievement is still fresh helps contributors include concrete details rather than generic thanks.
- 2
Can managers and peers sign the same card?
Yes. Managers, peers and collaborators can use the same private signing link without creating an account. This combines formal recognition with personal examples from the people who worked closest to the achievement.
- 3
Can recognition cards use our company branding?
Yes. Organisation members can create reusable custom covers for company values, awards or recurring programmes. Admin permissions allow approved covers to be managed across the team while every card still contains individual colleague messages.
- 4
How do organisation plans help HR teams?
Organisation plans provide shared credits, organiser access, central billing, celebration planning and controls for recurring employee recognition. Available member capacity, credit allocation and moderation features depend on the plan selected.
- 5
Can we buy a recognition card without subscribing?
Yes. Single cards and 5, 10 or 20 card bundles are available without an organisation subscription. They suit occasional recognition managed by one organiser, while plans add shared ownership and workplace controls.
