In today’s increasingly digital world, managers of incentive programs must find ways to provide rewards that meet and exceed the expectations of their participants. Skilled incentive program managers and rewards companies are always searching for more meaningful incentives for their program participants.
Digital rewards can be a critical component of B2B, B2C, B2B2C, employee incentive, wellness reward programs, and more.
But what makes a powerful rewards program? Here are a few best practices.
A study from the Incentive Research Foundation (IRF) found that top-performing technology companies prioritized the following features when designing an incentive plan:
Prepaid digital reward solutions make it easy to build and operate programs that embody all of those characteristics. Gift card options were a favorite form of reward among companies featured in the study.
Fortunately, companies don’t need to decide on the reward mix on their own and purchase them on an ad hoc business. Both gift card and digital prepaid card rewards can be provided by a reward supply company. Once a company chooses a provider for their incentive program, the rewards can be seamlessly integrated into a rewards marketplace as easy-to-redeem virtual gift cards and custom prepaid debit cards.
Participants will be happy prepaid cards and gift cards are available to them, as these are high perceived value rewards. They also have the added benefit of instant redemption since they are in digital form.
Modern incentive plan managers are becoming increasingly savvy when evaluating vendors. In addition to the characteristics mentioned above, managers also desire a range of additional services, such as:
With prepaid digital reward solutions in place, participants shouldn’t have a hard time figuring out how to activate Visa prepaid cards or eGift card rewards. This will create higher levels of engagement among participants.
Companies can also customize their plan to reinforce their brand every time a participant receives a digital reward. This includes embedding the company logo on the reward participants receive as well as any brand messaging.
Managers also cannot ignore the security of the program. If participants feel as though their privacy is at risk, they could opt out of it. Members of the company’s cybersecurity team also want to feel confident the software provider has taken all precautions to prevent cyber threats.
Prepaid digital reward solutions should also offer participants support if they encounter obstacles when attempting to use the reward they received. The support available from an incentive program technology provider will allow for changes and help to be provided quickly to ensure a positive experience, both for program administrators and participants.
