The Key to Scaling Successful Employee Rewards Platforms

Written by Joana Rocha | Jan 31, 2023 4:08:06 PM

Many successful Human Capital Management Systems (HCMS) find their niche. They become the go-to HCMS platform for a segment of customers, such as specific industries, organization sizes or geographic locations. It’s not a bad way to go! But, for HCMS platforms looking to maximize their revenue, it can be helpful to expand your targets and reach a broader set of customers. One great way to do that is to ensure that your platform can service a wide range of needs by offering a huge range of payouts. 

With our API, HCMS and Human Resource (HR) platforms give their customers more choice to support a broader range of programs while also creating risk-free channels for revenue. By integrating rewards APIs, these platforms can scale and add more value for their customers, ultimately driving engagement, growth, and success for their business. And giving customers innovative tools is more important than ever. According to Gartner, by 2026, half of the companies using multiple SaaS apps will centralize their stack management and analysis. Organizations will search for a well-rounded HR stack complete with their favorite tools, apps, and integrations. Now is the time for HCMS and HR platforms to scale, adding more capabilities and value for their customers.

So how can you scale your HCMS, HR and employee rewards platform? Use our simple API to integrate a digital value network that allows your customers to pay and get paid by anyone, anywhere, instantly. 

 

Why does a broad catalog of digital value types matter? 

A wide network is adaptable to multiple industries and customers

Your customers change, and what they find valuable will change. Having a broad catalog of payouts will insulate your platform. As your customers and their employees want (and maybe demand) diverse types of digital value you can better serve those changing needs. Your platform can attract and retain organizations with diverse needs by offering more rewards and types of digital value.

That’s great for your existing customers, and it might be even better for picking up new customers. Different industries have different priorities and find different types and ways of payouts valuable. That varied catalog ensures that all types of customers across all types of industries will find rewards that are, well, rewarding.

A wide catalog lets you support customers as they scale.

As your customers scale, their needs become more diverse. As they enter new markets and hire globally, they may have to take new approaches to employee engagement. That means they’ll need a solution that can support new languages, new currencies and new geographies.

A wide catalog makes customers happier 

And you want happy customers! Soaring Inflation, looming recession, and sweeping layoffs remind organizations to remain frugal by cutting unnecessary spending. Keep your customers happy with an excellent customer experience and diverse payout options. Our simple API makes integrating our network into your (and your customers) existing HR stack easy and nearly invisible. Expanding your payout capabilities allows you to focus on and better serve existing customers with a huge selection of rewards.
