How to Use Rewards to Boost Recognition

The tacos people earn can be redeemed for rewards in your Taco Shop. You do not need to have rewards to have a successful Taco Economy, in fact we always recommend waiting to add rewards until two to three weeks into your free trial.

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 a CEO a company t-shirt or day off. Collaborative rewards are rewards where people can pull their tacos together for a joint experience, such as tacos for charity, or tacos for a virtual happy hour. And then Gift Cards, you can create a gift card from our catalog and have your team redeem gift cards that are automatically fulfilled by HeyTaco.

In order to create Custom and Collaborative rewards you can click on either one of them and then fill out this form which launches the reward in your taco shop.

These are some reward ideas that we've seen people have success with over the years for example, a spa treatment which can be easily delivered to your team no matter where they are.

When launching a reward you can edit the description. You can add a redemption amount of how many tacos is this worth, as well as a quantity available. At the end of the reward you can choose to direct message your team about this, and add redemptions instructions. Since Custom and Collaborative rewards are fulfilled by you.
