Webinar details

Recognition is one of the simplest ways to help employees feel seen and appreciated. But when recognition lives in a separate tool, offers limited reward options or is difficult to manage at scale, it can lose momentum.

Join us for a look at Simpplr Recognition & Rewards 2.0 and how it helps organizations bring recognition, rewards, and redemption into the intranet employees already use every day.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Make appreciation easier to give, more meaningful to receive, and simpler to scale
  • Give employees more ways to redeem recognition points, including gift cards, company swag, and charitable donations
  • Create a modern, shopping-style rewards experience directly inside Simpplr
  • Help HR and program owners manage rewards with stronger governance, localization, fulfillment and visibility

Be there live for a chance to win Simpplr swag and hear about a special Recognition & Rewards promotion!
