The Employee Rewards Platform
Built for Everyday Moments
eCardWidget automates birthday, work anniversary, holiday, and peer recognition with fully branded eCards. No points system overhead. Free plan to start. Just consistent, meaningful recognition that reaches every employee automatically.
Most rewards platforms are built for finance, not people
Points, redemption catalogs, prefunded budgets, and complex approval workflows. They're designed for compensation teams, not for the moment an employee feels seen.
Points budgets add up fast
A points program means prefunding a budget on top of the platform fee, and points that go unused still cost you.
IT projects required to go live
Most platforms require SSO configuration and weeks of IT lead time before anyone gets recognized.
Employees forget to use them
Peer nomination platforms require behavior change. Most employees never log in after the first month.
eCardWidget: no surprises
No points budget to prefund, no catalog, nothing that expires. Free plan to start.
Live in hours, not weeks
CSV upload your team, configure your cards, done. No IT project. Most organizations are sending their first automated eCard the same day.
Recognition happens automatically
Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays -- sent automatically, on schedule, with no manual intervention from HR.

"This year, we had the opportunity to partner with eCardWidget to implement our first formal recognition within our organization. We have been able to create birthday cards, anniversary cards, company value cards as well as get well soon, thank you, and sympathy. This program has enhanced our overall culture, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience."
