The tacos people earn can be redeemed for rewards in your Taco Shop. There are three types of rewards you can add: custom, collaborative, and gift cards.
Custom rewards are rewards that individuals can redeem for themselves, such as lunch with the CEO, a company t-shirt, or a day off.
Collaborative rewards are rewards where people can pool their tacos together for a joint experience, such as Tacos for Charity or a virtual happy hour as a team.
For gift cards, you can create a gift card system by selecting from our catalog and allowing your team to redeem gift cards that are automatically fulfilled. You can click on any of these options and fill out the form to launch the reward.
If you're looking for reward ideas for your custom rewards, click on the rewards link and then select the Ideas button. You can easily populate a reward with one of our suggested ideas.
These are some of the ideas we have seen teams have success with over the years. For example, a spa treatment is something that can be easily delivered to your team no matter where they are.
When launching a reward, you can add a description, the redemption amount (how many tacos the reward is worth), as well as the quantity available.
You can also add redemption instructions to let your team know what to expect once they redeem the reward.
To add gift cards to your Taco Shop, visit the catalog where you can search for gift cards by brand or browse by category to find the options you'd like to offer.
HeyTaco offers gift cards in over 100 countries, with more than 1,800 gift cards available for your team to choose from.
You can now see that my Taco Shop includes a variety of rewards of different types. For example, a collaborative Taco Tuesday lunch, an Amazon gift card, and a spa treatment.
This is a great way to add enthusiasm and excitement to your taco economy.
We always recommend having fun with your rewards, switching them up, and asking your team for ideas about what they'd like to see in the Taco Shop.

Why Teams Choose HeyTaco
It's simple, but meaningful—being able to give a taco with a quick message of thanks or recognition helps build a stronger, more positive culture without feeling forced.
DeAnna R., QA Manager
I love how HeyTaco encourages peer-to-peer recognition in a lighthearted and engaging way. It has strengthened our team culture and helped everyone feel appreciated.
Daniel Alberto J., Fraud Analyst
It's simple, fast, and creates an instant boost in morale. People love getting acknowledged publicly, and the taco format makes it feel fun rather than forced. It's especially great in remote teams where spontaneous praise is harder to give. It also encourages a culture of gratitude.
Samantha G., Proposal Manager
It is a quick and easy way to show recognition and celebrate teammates. Initially, I thought it might be cheesy, but when you are able to acknowledge more wins throughout the organization, they quickly become meaningful.
Elaina C., Compliance Manager
It's low-effort, high-impact culture-building — and honestly, our Slack would feel weirdly empty without it.
Abhinav P., Solutions Engineering
It's brought us closer together as a team, and that's priceless. It also brings more awareness to what everyone's doing, which is another big plus!
Steven B., QA Automation Engineer
