Bottom line

Peer bonuses, milestones, and a culture feed for mid-market teams. Motivosity says pricing is 100 percent custom, with a $3,000 minimum on the small-business bundle.

Stands out for: The vendor prints popular bundles (Celebrating People, Scaling Globally, Small Business, Engagement, Healthcare) and calls out a $3,000 minimum spend for companies under 250 employees.

Watch out for: There is still no per-user grid. motivosity.com/pricing is a custom-quote page. The $3,000 figure is a floor on one bundle, not a Starter PEPM you can check out.

Overview

Motivosity is an employee recognition and rewards platform with a social feed, peer-to-peer recognition, milestones and service awards, nomination awards, and a global marketplace (gift cards, merchandise, experiences, and the ThanksMatters Visa card). Lifestyle spending accounts, multi-language and multi-currency support, and pulse surveys sit in higher bundles. A native mobile app is part of the Celebrating People bundle.

The pricing page states pricing is 100 percent custom from 75 to 10,000-plus employees. The Small Business bundle (milestones, peer-to-peer, nomination awards, achievements and challenges) carries a $3,000 minimum spend. That is a vendor-printed floor, not a self-serve rate card, so commercial terms stay sales-quoted. Capterra is 4.8 from 1,182 reviews. This is recognition, not an HRIS.

Cons

  • Free Slack-style kudos tools will be cheaper for very small teams
