Hey Product Hunters! 🐱 

Brett Hellman here, founder of Matter. 👋 We are excited to share the launch of Rewards! 🥳 The goal of Rewards is to supercharge Feedback Friday (team recognition ritual). Add coins on to kudos and feedback to show extra appreciation. Redeem coins for global gift cards, charitable donations, and custom company rewards. 🏆 What Rewards are offered? 🎁 * Gift Cards — 1,000+ Merchants across 80 countries.
 * Charitable Donations — Donate to the charity of your choice.
 * Company Rewards — Create your own rewards such as merchandise, experiences (e.g., lunch with the CEO), etc. How does Rewards work? ⚙️ 1. Team members give and receive coins via kudos or feedback.
 2. Members request rewards and admin either approvals or declines the request.
 3. Gift cards & donations are automatically delivered in local currency. Company rewards need to be delivered internally. As always, Matter is free to try for 30 days with no credit card required. We encourage you to try it out for free by adding it to Slack or Microsoft Teams. 🙌 Lastly, don’t forget to leave any questions or feedback down below! Our team is all eyes and ears. 👀👂 Brett Founder, Matter P.S. Matter also includes: 🎉 Start Feedback Friday — A dedicated day where your team is encouraged to recognize each other with kudos and feedback. Customizable to your team's needs. 🙌 Celebrate wins together with Kudos — Choose from 9 templates or create your own Custom Kudos templates for everyone to share company values, inside jokes, etc. 🎈Never miss a special day with Celebrations — Automatically celebrate birthdays and work anniversaries. 📊 Discover recognition insights with Analytics — Answer culture questions such as culture champions, those not engaged, embodied company values, and much more. 🏆 Embrace a growth mindset with Peer Feedback — Gather or receive real-time and scheduled 1:1 private feedback based on professionally role-related skills.

@saraanders96 Thank you Sara!!! Thousands of companies are actively using Matter for team recognition. Hundreds are already using Rewards. We wanted to make sure the feature was working perfectly before launching the feature to the world. 🌎 After months and months of development and testing, Rewards by Matter is ready for you! 🥳

Does this cost extra? or is this included? Not seeing a new pricing page - https://matterapp.com/pricing

@timaeusest Hey Tim! Great question. Rewards costs nothing extra! Your company is only charged when an employee requests an award and an administrator at your company approves the request.

Awesome new launch! Always tough to build a great remote culture with international teams across timezones, feel this can help. What are the 34 countries?
Sam Lepak
@lairdep23 we actually have 80+ countries (typo in Brett's original comment - now fixed). We partner with TangoCard to deliver gift cards + donations. Here's a list of their catalog: https://www.tangocard.com/reward... You can filter on the left hand-side by country! Appreciate the support!

@lairdep23 Thank you Evan. We REALLY appreciate your continued support and feedback!
Thomas Lepak
Cool product! Curious, are rewards/coins prepaid?
Brett Hellman
Maker
@thomas_lepak Great question! Rewards/coins are not prepaid. You are only charged when a team members earns+requests a reward and an admin in your company approves the award.

@thomas_lepak If you have any questions, feel free to email me directly brett[at]matterapp.com. Thank you!
Sam Lepak
@thomas_lepak as Brett mentioned, rewards/coins are not prepaid. We've heard from feedback that companies didn't want to potentially pay for something that may not be used. Additionally, only charging when an admin approves a request means that admins are in control of how much they are charged and when they are charged!

What kinds of gift cards are available?
Brett Hellman
Maker
@danielle_roubinov There are over 1000 gift cards available in the USA to merchants and charities. Merchants like Amazon, LuluLemon, Walmart, Spotify, etc... I would be shocked if a major retailer wasn't available.

A helpful way to drive employee retention, love this!
Brett Hellman
Maker
@amitay_gilboa_design We agree! Thank you!
Sam Lepak
@amitay_gilboa_design you've got it! Especially because employees that feel recognized are 2x less likely to quit their job within a year.

Awesome!

@usamaejaz much appreciated! Welcome to Matter!
Sam Lepak
@usamaejaz thanks for the support! Besides Rewards, teams are going to be using Celebrations to never miss a special day around birthdays and work anniversaries.

@karimsaif Thank you! Please let us know what you'd like us to build next. Thanks again!
Matt Gardner
Awesome!!! @bretthellman would you be interested in chatting about integrating with http://postsent.com/ for merch options? Works for distributed teams as printing and shipping is taken care of - totally hands-off merch. Could provide specific items or gift cards to a merch store in exchange for coins.

@thatmattgardner very cool! Great to hear about your company. We'll keep that in mind when we hear requests for that extra level of service from our customers.

@sergiy_sumnikov2 NICE! So happy to hear it. Thank you for using Matter!

Love to see that the Rewards are global, especially at a global corporation like Rockwell Automation. What countries and gift cards / donations are offered?
Sam Lepak
@lepak_randy we offer global rewards to 80+ countries and 1,000+ merchants! This includes the Americas, Asia, Pacific, Middle East, Europe, etc. Recommend checking out our Rewards feature here: https://matterapp.com/rewards

A company I used to work for used Matter and I recall thinking "what a great idea!". Celebrating wins and giving feedback in a consistent way gets lost in the day to day, and it's great that Matter is solving that problem. I'll share this with our HR team - see if we can test it out.
Sam Lepak
@shilpamandhan wonderful to hear! We offer a free 30-day trial where you get access to all features - no credit card required. Takes literally two minutes to setup and have everyone automatically onboarded!
Sam Lepak
Excited to be a part of this team and launch! 💜 Rewards Pro Tip: Instead of increasing salary, which is difficult w/current economic situation, offer a "PTO Day" as a custom company reward. That way you can increase comp value, but not salary.
Mark Lamb
This looks like such a great idea, we've always focussed on customer feedback and we donate to charity based on it, but have never thought about doing it internally with our team. Definitely going to try this out!
