Transforming Milestone Recognition with Seamless Automation
Employee recognition isn’t just a “nice-to-have” anymore—it’s a business necessity. Studies show that companies with strong recognition programs have 44% higher employee engagement and 31% lower turnover rates (SHRM). But manually tracking and managing milestone celebrations is time-consuming and prone to oversight.
That’s why Givenly has introduced the Milestone Automation Tool, a comprehensive solution that allows companies to automate milestone recognition and ensure employees feel valued on their special days—without adding extra work to HR teams.
From birthdays and work anniversaries to employee appreciation milestones, this tool simplifies recognition by automatically sending employees a Wallet they can use to select their reward from Givenly’s various gift catalogs, including:
✔ The Gift Catalog – 20,000+ gifts & experiences
✔ Brand On Demand – Custom-branded merchandise
✔ Other Corporate Reward Programs
This end-to-end automation ensures every milestone is celebrated effortlessly, with employees choosing rewards that matter to them.
How Givenly’s Milestone Automation Tool Works
1. Set Up Automated Triggers
HR teams no longer need to track and manage milestone dates manually. Simply input employee information, set up milestones (birthdays, anniversaries, promotions, etc.), and let the system handle the rest.
2. Wallets Are Automatically Sent to Employees
When a milestone occurs, the Milestone Automation Tool automatically delivers a Wallet to the employee via email. This Wallet allows them to choose from Givenly’s curated catalogs, offering a range of gifts, experiences, and branded merchandise.
3. Employees Select Their Reward
Rather than receiving a one-size-fits-all gift, employees can browse through thousands of options and pick something they truly value. Whether it’s a tech gadget, premium apparel, a travel experience, or a branded company item, the choice is in their hands.
4. Seamless Fulfillment
Once the employee redeems their Wallet, Givenly handles everything from order fulfillment to shipping. No extra work is required from HR or management.
This fully automated process ensures that every employee feels appreciated and celebrated without requiring manual effort from leadership teams.
Why Wallets? The Power of Employee Choice
The traditional corporate gifting approach often misses the mark—some employees receive gifts they don’t need, while others feel underappreciated. Givenly’s Wallet system eliminates this issue by allowing employees to select their own reward.
Benefits of Wallet-Based Recognition:
✅ Personalized Choice – Employees pick from multiple catalogs, ensuring they receive something meaningful.
✅ Flexible Budgets – Companies can set budget limits while still offering a wide selection.
✅ Hassle-Free Fulfillment – Once the employee chooses, Givenly takes care of the rest.
✅ No Wasted Gifts – Every reward is selected by the employee, eliminating unnecessary or unwanted items.
By using a Wallet-based system, companies empower employees while maintaining full control over the recognition process.
The Gift Catalog: Over 20,000 Gifts & Experiences
Employees can redeem their Wallet for items in Givenly’s extensive Gift Catalog, which features over 20,000 products and experiences.
What’s Inside the Gift Catalog?
