Personalized Awards for Employees

Custom Symbolic Awards for Recognition that Can Only Be Earned

Your top performers can buy almost anything online. What they can’t buy is an award that carries your company’s values, their name, and the weight of an achievement they earned. For HR and people leaders who want personal recognition that lasts.

Questions? We’ve Got You Covered

What happens during a Custom Awards Lab consultation?

Symbolic award design consultations are often a 30-minute conversation, no commitment required. We'll discuss your current recognition efforts, the moments you're celebrating, your workforce size and type, and any design preferences or brand guidelines. You'll walk away with initial concepts for your custom recognition award and a clear next step.

How long does it take to design and receive custom awards?

Timelines vary by award type and customization complexity. Most custom orders are delivered within 3-5 weeks. We'll give you a clear timeline in your consultation before any order is placed.

Do you work with organizations of all sizes?

Yes. We work with organizations ranging from 200 employees to 50,000+ creating large orders of corporate awards as well as small, bespoke personalized awards. We don't have order minimums to get started, and our pricing scales to fit a wide range of recognition budgets. We'll recommend the right format and materials for your budget in your first conversation.

Can Terryberry handle recognition for frontline and remote employees — not just desk workers?

Absolutely. Terryberry was built with these workforces in mind. Physical awards are uniquely effective for frontline, deskless, and remote employees in building community, communicating value, and increasing employee sentiment. Terryberry’s employee engagement program is equipped with features that drive value and ease for remote and frontline workers.

Do you offer tangible awards or points-based recognition rewards?

Terryberry offers both– unifying digital recognition programs and reward systems with tangible, customized symbolic awards. Instead of using separate systems, like peer recognition software, recognition reward platforms, employee wellness software, and employee listening or survey tools, Terryberry offers one program, eliminating fragmentation, consolidating spend, and making it easier to track the impact of your efforts.
