Giving a reward

To offer a reward, a leader must boost a post. We'd recommend boosting posts that are a significant personal achievement, going 'above and beyond' or exemplary practice.

To boost a post AND give a reward follow these steps.

1. Click the 'feed' icon from the side panel.
   
   
   
2. Scroll the feed to find a post that you'd like to boost and reward 👇
   
   
3. Click the 'boost' icon in the bottom right corner of the post. 
   A pop-up will appear, by default the 'reward offer' is on (green).
   
   
4. Click the box next to the reward that you'd like to offer.
   
   
   
5. Click 'boost'.
   A success message will appear in the top right corner.
   The post will be highlighted in a gold (yellow) box on the feed and the 'boost' icon will change to 'boosted by you'.
   
   

In the above example, Rhys will be notified that he has received a recognition by email. You can read more about how a reward can be redeemed here.

Your rewards page will look a bit like this 👇

The top section shows a list of rewards that you've received and are yet to redeem. Let's take a closer look at one 🕵️‍♀️

To redeem a reward, click the green redeem button. A box will appear asking you to accept the reward on offer 👇

Click the checkbox and then redeem. The colleague who gave you the reward will know that you've accepted it. All that's left to do is have a conversation with them to let them know, if they don't already, which chocolate is your favourite.

When a reward is redeemed it will move to the 'redeemed rewards' section.
