RibiPeople
Workhuman alternative for African teams

Recognition that's human — and rewards that actually work in Africa.

Workhuman makes the recognition moment feel personal. RibiPeople makes sure what follows it — the actual reward — is just as meaningful for your African teams.

An employee in Nairobi gets a Workhuman shoutout. Then what?

Thin African coverage

The reward catalogue is thin or missing for most African markets. The recognition lands, but there's often nothing local worth redeeming it for.

Global pricing

Rewards are priced at a global rate that doesn't reflect local purchasing power or the real in-country cost of redemption.

Slower experiences

Cross-border delivery and redemption take longer, which drains the momentum out of the recognition moment.

Side by side

Where Workhuman stops, RibiPeople keeps going.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Is this only about rewards, or recognition too?

Both. RibiPeople runs peer and manager recognition natively, alongside benefits, rewards and experiences — so you're not stitching two products together.

Does switching require IT or a formal integration?

No integration is required to get started. Set up your programme and invite your team.

Can I trial this with one team before rolling out company-wide?

Yes. Most teams start with a single department or country and expand from there.

How long does it take to go live?

Most teams are live within a couple of weeks.
