A Complete Culture of Recognition — Built In.

Recognition that only comes from the top down misses most of the moments that matter. Social Wiiv brings together every layer of recognition — peer-to-peer, manager-to-employee, organisation-wide, and automated milestones — on a single, social platform.

Every recognition moment is connected to the gamification engine — awarding real Points and Credits that employees or consumers can redeem from a curated rewards catalogue.

Recognition & Rewards powers the Employee Experience Platform and is also available in the Consumer Experience Platform — giving brands a tool to recognise and reward their most loyal customers too.

Peer-to-Peer Kudos

Any employee or community member can recognise anyone else — instantly, publicly, and with real points attached. Recognition from equals is the most motivating kind.

Anyone to Anyone
Manager Awards

Managers nominate and award employees for outstanding performance, leadership, and values alignment — with custom award categories and higher-tier point rewards.

Formal Awards
Milestone Recognition

Automated recognition for life and career milestones — birthdays, work anniversaries, new roles, and personal achievements. Never miss a moment that matters.

Automated
Rewards Catalogue

Accumulated Points and Credits are redeemable from a curated rewards catalogue — gift cards, experiences, merchandise, vouchers, and more.

Real-world Value

Recognition Shouldn't Wait for a Review Cycle.

Peer recognition is the most authentic, frequent, and motivating form of appreciation in any organisation. The Social Wiiv platform makes it effortless — anyone can give kudos to anyone, instantly, from the app.

Every kudos message is published on the Recognition Wall — a live social feed visible to the whole organisation. Recognition becomes public, social, and contagious — creating a culture where appreciation is the norm, not the exception.

Every kudos awards real points. The sender chooses a recognition category and writes a personal message — the recipient receives points, Credits, and the social visibility of being called out in front of the whole team.

Peer Recognition Features
Instant Kudos

Send a recognition message to any colleague in seconds — from mobile or web. Choose a category, write a personal note, and send.

Public Recognition Wall

Every kudos is posted on a live social feed — visible to the entire organisation. Likes, comments, and reactions amplify every recognition moment.

Recognition Categories

Tag recognition to company values or custom categories — Innovation, Teamwork, Customer Focus, Leadership. Reporting shows which values are being lived most.

Real-time Notifications

Recipients receive an instant push notification when recognised — delivering the feel-good moment in real time, wherever they are.

Points & Credits Awarded

Each kudos automatically awards Points and Credits to the recipient — feeding directly into the gamification engine and the rewards catalogue.

Formal Awards That Carry Real Weight.

While peer recognition drives day-to-day appreciation, formal manager awards create significant, memorable moments. Managers can nominate individuals or teams for structured awards — with higher-tier point rewards and organisation-wide visibility.

Award nominations flow through a simple approval workflow — and approved awards are announced on the Recognition Wall with a spotlight moment that the whole company sees.

Fully customisable award categories. Create categories aligned to your company values — Employee of the Month, Innovation Award, Customer Champion, Rising Star, and more. Each carries a defined point value and badge.

Never Miss a Moment That Matters.

Milestone recognition is automated — no admin required. The platform monitors key dates and career events and triggers personalised recognition messages, points, and Credits automatically, at exactly the right moment.

From a first-day welcome to a 10-year service award, every milestone is an opportunity to make an individual feel genuinely valued — at scale, without manual effort.

Milestone rewards scale with tenure. Service anniversary points increase with each year — reinforcing that loyalty is recognised and rewarded more generously the longer someone stays.

Automated Milestone Events
Birthday

A personalised birthday message and points reward is automatically sent on the employee's or consumer's birthday — making them feel seen on their special day.

Auto
Service Anniversary

Annual service milestones trigger celebration messages and escalating point rewards — 1 year, 3 years, 5 years, 10 years and beyond. The longer the tenure, the bigger the reward.

Scaled
New Role or Promotion

Promotions and role changes trigger a congratulatory announcement on the Recognition Wall — sharing the achievement publicly with the whole organisation.

Public
Onboarding Welcome

New employees or community members receive a warm welcome message and a starter points bonus — making a great first impression from day one.

Day 1
Goal Achievement

When a performance goal or learning milestone is completed, an automated recognition is triggered — closing the loop between achievement and reward instantly.

Recognition That Leads to Real-World Value.

Points and Credits earned through recognition, gamification, and milestones are redeemable from a curated rewards catalogue — giving recognition a tangible, real-world value that motivates continued participation.

The rewards catalogue is powered by the Social Wiiv Rewards Partners network — a curated selection of brand partners offering vouchers, experiences, products, and lifestyle rewards.

How Redemption Works
01
Earn Credits

Credits are earned through recognition, gamification activities, and milestone rewards — accumulating in your in-app wallet.

02
Browse the Catalogue

Users browse the rewards catalogue in the app — filtered by category, value, or brand partner — and select their preferred reward.

03
Redeem & Receive

Credits are deducted and the reward — digital voucher, gift card, or experience booking — is delivered instantly to the user's app or email.

04
Full Redemption Tracking

Every redemption is logged in the admin dashboard — giving organisations full visibility into what rewards are most popular and how Credits are being used.

Recognition Is the Highest ROI Engagement Strategy.

Studies consistently show that recognised employees are more productive, more loyal, and more engaged. The Social Wiiv platform makes recognition systematic — not an afterthought — ensuring every person feels seen, valued, and motivated every day.

Increases Retention

Employees who feel regularly recognised are significantly less likely to leave. Recognition reduces costly turnover by making people feel valued before they start looking elsewhere.

Drives Performance

Public recognition reinforces the exact behaviours and values the organisation wants to see more of — creating a positive feedback loop that drives measurable performance improvement.

Strengthens Culture

A visible, social recognition feed builds a culture of appreciation across teams, departments, and locations — uniting distributed workforces around shared values.

Generates Actionable Data

Recognition analytics show which values are being lived, who is recognising and being recognised, and where engagement gaps exist — giving HR real data to act on.

Makes Rewards Meaningful

Connecting recognition to real-world rewards gives every kudos tangible value. Employees know that appreciation isn't just a kind word — it's Credits they can actually spend.

Creates Recognition Habits

Gamified recognition mechanics — streaks, badges for giving kudos, leaderboards for most recognised — make recognition a daily habit, not a quarterly event.

Fully integrated with the Social Wiiv Gamification Engine. Every recognition moment — peer kudos, manager awards, milestones — awards Points and Credits that flow directly into the gamification leaderboard and the rewards catalogue.
