SAN FRANCISCO, Calif — Zipline and Bucketlist Rewards have officially partnered to help organizations offer recognition and rewards directly within the Zipline platform. This new integration enables retail organizations to reward employee achievements and behaviors that drive performance — all in a single frontline experience.
High frontline turnover impacts retail operations at every level and every size. Employees are more likely to leave a company when they feel undervalued and disengaged. Retailers are working hard to address this engagement gap, with research suggesting that employers with strong recognition programs see a 31% reduction in turnover.
Businesses want to reward employees for delivering great customer experiences, completing training, problem-solving, and strong execution, but most rewards platforms sit outside the retail operations systems they use every day. That means managers and leaders have less visibility into moments for recognition, giving them fewer opportunities to reward specific behaviors.
Zipline and Bucketlist Rewards recognized this challenge and partnered to make retail employee rewards frictionless by putting recognition back into the flow of work.
With the Zipline and Bucketlist Rewards integration, leaders can:
- Recognize employees in the flow of work without the need to switch apps
- Simplify rewards with an embedded, real-time recognition experience
- Reward employee development by connecting Zipline Learning with Bucketlist
- Make rewards immediate and meaningful by connecting them to execution
- Give employees points they can redeem from Bucketlist’s global rewards marketplace
- See recognition activity sync automatically to Bucketlist for reporting
“Recognition works when it’s tied to what matters: a completed training, a strong shift, a sales goal hit. That’s what Bucketlist Rewards brings to Zipline: real-time, performance-based appreciation, so employees who deliver feel seen and retailers keep the people who move the needle,” says Joe Marcotano President & COO, Bucketlist Rewards.
Recognizing employees for doing great work should be simple.
When frontline teams feel their efforts are seen and rewarded, they’re more likely to deliver better outcomes and stronger performance. Zipline and Bucketlist’s new integration enables a culture where great work is recognized and employees feel valued.
“Recognition has the greatest impact when it’s part of the everyday flow of work, not a separate destination,” said Eric Jeng, Senior Product Manager of Integrations at Zipline. “With the Bucketlist integration, appreciation becomes a natural part of how managers lead and employees work every day, making it effortless to recognize great performance without leaving Zipline.”
