Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Awardco

  • Tiers are defined by how many recognition programme types you may run, two on Standard and four on Scale, rather than by features or headcount
  • Small organisations under 100 employees start at $3,000, so there is a floor regardless of size
  • The A-Pay card, Company Store and Awardco Engage are premium add-ons
  • No per-employee price is published; larger organisations must go through sales

Profit.co

  • No published pricing at all; every deal is a custom proposal built with their sales team
  • Split into core modules and add-ons, so strategy roadmaps, one-to-ones, rewards and engagement are each extra rather than included
  • There is no free tier
