High adoption from day one

Encirc is a leading glass manufacturer with over 2,000 employees across three sites in the UK and Ireland. When they launched Perkbox in March 2025, they were looking for a more modern, intuitive solution after finding their previous platform difficult for employees to navigate.

The impact was almost instant. Within three months, 97% of employees were engaged, over £176,000 in savings had been delivered, and more recognitions had been sent than ever before. The shift from their old platform was felt immediately: employee queries about how to use the system dropped sharply once Perkbox was live.

West Brom Building Society had built a strong workplace culture, even earning a place on The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2025 list. However, employee surveys revealed recognition was lagging. Their existing setup relied on manual intranet shout-outs, while a separate rewards budget went largely unused due to a cumbersome reimbursement process.

By switching to Perkbox, they brought recognition, rewards, discounts and wellbeing support into one app. With recognition champions across 34 branches, they achieved 86% engagement in week one and 94% activation within the first month. Monthly recognitions quadrupled, rising from around 100 to more than 400 within two months.

Cloetta, a leading confectionery company with 240 UK employees across office, remote and field-based roles, was managing rewards and recognition through multiple disconnected schemes with little visibility or reporting.

By bringing benefits, rewards and recognition together on Perkbox, HR gained a single platform to manage and measure engagement, while employees got one app that worked wherever they were. The result: 100% account activation, £36,000 in employee savings over 12 months, and company-wide recognition adopted by all 240 employees.

schuh, a leading footwear retailer with more than 3,000 employees across 120 stores, distribution centres and corporate offices, faced the challenge of keeping a dispersed workforce connected to a shared culture.

Before Perkbox, rewarding employees relied on manually sourcing vouchers and gift cards. By moving recognition onto one platform, schuh made it easy for everyone to celebrate great work across teams and locations. Today, a third of employees actively use Perkbox to recognise each other, with more than 900 recognitions linked to schuh’s company values.

Trayport, a technology company with nearly 400 employees across five countries, had strong financial wellbeing support but a fragmented benefits experience spread across multiple platforms.

By consolidating benefits, rewards and wellbeing into Perkbox, Trayport simplified the employee experience while reducing vendor costs. Within 12 months, employees saved almost £100,000, activation reached 94%, and engagement hit 87%, driven by day-one onboarding and creative internal campaigns.
