Next trigger: Birthday in 14 days — no setup needed

Every work anniversary is a choice an employee made — to stay, to grow, to invest in your company when they could have gone somewhere else. Automated milestone recognition makes sure those choices are always acknowledged, even when HR teams are stretched across multiple countries and hundreds of employees.

One rule set covers all markets. Each employee recognised in their local currency.

In practice

Where this shows up.

1-year anniversary

The most critical retention milestone. Acknowledged before the employee starts questioning whether they made the right choice.

5-year long service

Half a decade of loyalty deserves more than a LinkedIn notification. A physical card loaded with real value.

Day 30 onboarding

First month complete. Recognition that confirms the new hire made the right choice — before they decide otherwise.

Day 90 onboarding

The probation milestone. Recognition that signals permanence and belonging.

Birthday recognition

Arrives on the day, every year, automatically. Never missed because someone forgot to update the calendar.

10 and 25-year tenure

Long service awards that are physically delivered, personally written, and permanently memorable.

Step by step

How it works

01

HR sets milestone rules

Define which milestones trigger recognition, what value attaches, and what message template to use.

02

Platform monitors dates

Connected to your HR system or employee list. Milestones tracked automatically.

03

Recognition fires on the day

Employee receives their recognition via WhatsApp or email on the exact date.

04

HR gets the dashboard view

See all upcoming milestones, past sends, and redemption rates in one view.

Milestone recognition is delivered to the employee's WhatsApp on the exact date — including for field staff, site workers and remote employees who don't check work email.

We have 400 employees across six countries. Before this, work anniversaries got missed constantly. Now every single one is acknowledged on the day. The feedback has been overwhelming.
