Sustainability in Business: Eco-Friendly Employee Rewards

What are the benefits of using digital eVouchers for your employee rewards strategy?

We’ve touched on a few of the benefits of our digital vouchers above, including choice and value for money. Next, we’ll delve deeper into each benefit of using digital vouchers as part of your employee rewards strategy. 

1. Freedom of choice: With our eVoucher Cheques, your employees can select their preferred retailers, ensuring there’s something for everyone and a personalised experience. Employee rewards are more impactful when they resonate, and to do so, they must be inclusive and meet each employee’s unique interests or needs.
2. Instant delivery: We send our vouchers digitally, straight to your employees’ inboxes or a central location. Once received, your employees can redeem their rewards immediately.
3. No geographical barriers. It doesn’t matter if your workforce is remote or in multiple offices. You can issue our eVouchers on mass to various locations simultaneously for maximum impact.
4. Cost-effective: eVoucher Codes are retailer-specific, and when you buy in bulk, you can negotiate a discount.* As for our eVoucher Cheques… we only bill them on redemption. If your employees don’t redeem them, we won’t charge you.
5. Time efficiency: If you’re issuing employee rewards to the whole business using our eVoucher Cheques, we can handle the admin by sending them directly to each employee.
6. Carbon footprint reduction: Pluxee eVouchers are digital. There’s no need to print anything. Your employees simply use their code in-store or online.
7. Extra security: When you gift employees a physical gift card, it can be lost or stolen, and you wouldn’t be able to reissue the same card. The employee would either miss out on their reward, or you may be out of pocket if you give them a replacement. Digital rewards can’t be lost or stolen, and if an email does go awry, you can easily reissue the code.
8. Improving financial wellbeing: Your employees can choose how they want to spend their eVoucher Cheque. They could put it towards the weekly shop during a tough month, a present for a loved one, the latest gadget, a meal out, a trip to the cinema or a weekend away… the possibilities are endless!
9. Anytime rewards: Keep a stock of our digital vouchers and you can reward employees anytime for anything: long service, birthdays, anniversaries and for a job well done.
10. Personalisation:  If you purchase eVoucher Codes in bulk, we’ll send them to you to distribute directly, so you can add any message you wish. We can send eVoucher Cheques directly to employees on your behalf, using different messaging, voucher values, and branding, as directed by you.
11. Quick turnaround: This benefit comes in incredibly handy during the Christmas rewards period, because we can turn orders around in a matter of days!
12. Did you know that we’re one of the leading UK digital voucher suppliers? By building powerful and trusted partnerships with our clients, merchants and consumers, we can provide you with the best choice of retailers and money-saving deals.

What about Christmas employee reward vouchers?

eVouchers make fantastic Christmas employee rewards for the twelve reasons we’ve listed above. They offer unbeatable choice, instant delivery, serve a remote workforce, are cost-effective, reduce your carbon footprint, are more secure than physical alternatives, improve financial wellbeing, and can be personalised and branded.

Christmas is a busy period for HR professionals, and thoughtful Christmas gifts don’t necessarily require much time to plan and deliver. When you use digital vouchers as part of your Christmas rewards strategy, you’re allowing employees to choose their own gift. You can guarantee that they’ll find a use for it, spending on something that genuinely appeals to them.

Bring more moments of joy to the lives of your employees and consumers--and their families with a Christmas voucher selection as versatile as them.

Virtual Pluxee Card

We’ve explored how our Virtual Pluxee Card works as part of your reward strategy in our blog, ‘The Pluxee Card: Your Ultimate Guide’, so we won’t repeat the information here. However, we will summarise the key points below:

• Our Virtual Pluxee Card simplifies rewards: Employers can add funds to the Pluxee Card using the same employee details each time, streamlining the rewards process.
• The cashback feature maximises value: While optional, using the cashback feature increases the actual reward value—e.g., a £100 reward can become £115 with 15% cashback.
• Cost-effective strategy: The card provides a budget-friendly and sustainable way to reward employees while offering them greater value.
• Dual use: In addition to employee rewards, the Pluxee Card can serve as an ongoing employee benefit. Allowing employees to contribute their own funds helps maintain high engagement.
• Encourages long-term use: Continued use of the card helps maintain reward momentum, supporting employee satisfaction and growth.
