Boost engagement and retention with Assembly’s gift card program for onboarding, recognition, and employee milestones.
In today’s competitive talent landscape, organizations are rethinking how they engage, motivate, and retain their people. The employee experience is no longer just about paychecks and perks; it’s about creating meaningful moments that make employees feel valued from day one. One of the most flexible and impactful tools in this journey? Gift cards.
Gift cards, when thoughtfully integrated into your employee experience strategy, can turn routine milestones into memorable celebrations, foster a culture of appreciation, and drive long-term loyalty. With innovative platforms like Assembly’s soon-to-launch gift card program, organizations can now deliver these moments of delight more easily and effectively than ever before.
Gift cards are more than just a convenient reward. They offer personalization, flexibility, and instant gratification—qualities that today’s workforce craves. Unlike generic gifts or one-size-fits-all bonuses, gift cards empower employees to choose what matters most to them, whether it’s a favorite retailer, a special experience, or a meaningful donation.
When used strategically, gift cards can:
The onboarding process sets the tone for an employee’s entire journey. A thoughtful welcome—like a coffee shop gift card, a lunch voucher, or a personalized e-card—can make new hires feel instantly included and valued. Assembly’s platform makes this easy with free 1:1 gifting and customizable e-cards, allowing managers to send a warm, animated welcome via email or text.
Imagine a new team member receiving a kudo board filled with messages from colleagues, or a small gift card to help them set up their home office. These gestures, while simple, create a sense of belonging and excitement from day one.
Recognition shouldn’t stop after onboarding. Work anniversaries, project completions, birthdays, and personal milestones are all opportunities to celebrate your people. Assembly’s self-service gifting lets you send 1:1 or 1-to-many gifts—perfect for team wins or individual achievements.
With Assembly, you can:
A culture of appreciation thrives when everyone can participate. Assembly’s e-card and kudo board features empower employees to recognize each other, not just top-down from managers. Whether it’s a quick thank you, a birthday shoutout, or a team-wide celebration, these tools make it easy to spread positivity and build stronger connections.
Gift cards can also support wellness initiatives, from fitness memberships to healthy meal services. By integrating these rewards into your wellness programs, you encourage participation and show employees you care about their holistic well-being.
Consistent, meaningful recognition is a proven driver of retention. Employees who feel appreciated are more likely to stay, perform at their best, and advocate for your company. Assembly’s automated gifting ensures no milestone goes unnoticed, while the ability to send thanks back to the sender creates a virtuous cycle of appreciation.

Yes, at Assembly, security is a top priority. Each quarter, we have ongoing security work that is everyone’s responsibility. While we maintain a strong security posture, it was important for us to prove to our customers that we do everything we claim to do. This led us to pursue a SOC 2 Type II report that would provide evidence of our compliance with industry gold-standard security practice.
There is study after study showing that employee recognition leads to increased engagement. This in return creates an environment where employees are happier and more motivated which increase productivity and reduces voluntary turnover significantly. In order to filled critical roles, companies tend to spend nearly twice the value of an annual salary. Assembly is an investment in your employees that supports your bottom line.
Yes, we will offer contracts for companies with longer-term agreements to help larger customers have more certainty around future costs.
The minimum agreement term is a 12-month subscription.

At the time of redemption (when your employees exchange their points for a paid reward) you'll pay face value. If a reward is a $10 Amazon gift card, your cost will be $10. All paid rewards are billed for on a monthly basis.
The good news is that you don't have to pay for rewards upfront because we only charge you when points are redeemed, not when they're earned.
We offer discounts or educational or charitable organizations. In order to secure a discount, you'll first need to book a demo with a customer support specialist.
For all other organizations, we are willing to consider longer-term agreements in exchange for discounts. To set up annual plans or longer, you will need to book a demo with a customer support specialist.
If you're on a month to month plan, you can go here and cancel anytime. If you're having concerns or need help setting up your account for success, you can always book a demo with a customer support specialist.
If you're on a longer-term custom plan, you'll need to reach out to your customer support specialist to cancel your account or email us at support@joinassembly.com.
Great question! You can customize your core values to match your organization's to boost and track alignment. You can change your currency from the 🏆 emoji (our default) to any emoji of your choice. You can swap our logo for your own. You can also set up company culture rewards such as, "Lunch with the CEO," "Buy a book on us," and so much more!
While we recommend a peer to peer set up where anyone in your organization can give or receive recognition, you can set up Assembly however you want. If you need to limit the people who can give or receive recognition, that's perfectly fine and can be done from your Admin, here.
Assembly connects to the tools your employees use every day to offer an easy, seamless experience with minimal change management.
Assembly has integrations with HCM/HRIS systems like ADP, Google, Office 365, and Slack. We also integrate with communication tools like Slack and Teams so you and your employees can access Assembly wherever they work now.
That depends on the company's permissions set up. That said, over 90% of the employees on Assembly's platform are recognized on a monthly basis. That means nearly every employee across all of our customers are receiving regular recognition from their peers, managers, or leadership. We're extremely proud of this.
They are not required. You can use Assembly without having rewards set up. However, we don't recommend it if you intend to have a high adoption and usage rate. You can always keep the costs down by offering internal culture rewards that are fulfilled by you internally.
No, you can remove allowances from anyone or everyone. It's up to you but we do recommend using points whether they're worth a real dollar value or not. Companies that use points have a much higher engagement rate even if those points don't exchange for real dollars.
