Encouraging employees to give their all to a special project or just their daily workflow can be tough. This is especially true in the current climate, when many employees are working out of their own homes and often feel more than a little removed from the office culture that their company has worked so hard to cultivate.

However, there are ways to encourage employees to put in their best work without resorting to tighter restrictions and deadlines. In fact, you will be rewarding them while they work harder than ever.

If you have been using gamification to encourage your employees, you can now give them a great gift to spur them on even more.

Gamification and employee engagement

Studies have shown that gamification is an excellent way to get employees fully engaged with the systems and processes involved with their work, and can encourage them to give more than ever before to their job.

By turning work into a game, you will know that your own employees feel more excited about reaching certain goals and milestones. But what about when they have achieved a certain quota or finished a project? Is it enough to simply say well done, or to give them a store card?
We think there is a better way to reward your employees!

Why choose prepaid digital cards?

A prepaid digital card gives your employees cashback, rather than a card they will need to spend in a specific store, or the promise of a team meal sometime in the future. While large financial bonuses are not always appropriate or possible in the workplace, these cards are suitable for both big and smaller wins.

It is no secret that during this current time, people need more encouragement and engagement than ever, but that can feel challenging at the best of times. With a prepaid digital gift card, there are so many perks on offer, including:

• Being able to make the amount appropriate to the project/event
• Showing your employees you value and trust them
• Celebrating not just yearly achievements but smaller wins
• Not having to worry about the gift being appropriate for the person
• Giving a diverse reward that anyone can enjoy
• Having a reward that is suitable for employees at all levels
• Providing a gift that is suitable for lockdowns or more free times
• Upping engagement in a simple step
• Reminding employees that they are still part of a company culture
• Showing that gamification is not just about fun, but getting a great “prize”
• The happiness project

You will find, through the use of prepaid gift cards, that your employees are more involved in the gamification of systems and processes than ever. Not only that, but you can reward them for getting through a difficult year, and encourage them to do their best in whatever comes next. It’s a real win-win situation!

If you are an employer who knows the value of gamification in the workplace, then you will want to introduce this great “prize” for your employees to work towards. It really is the best choice for making them feel valued, happy, and eager to work hard.
