One platform. Every country. Rewordin handles FX, local brand selection, tax compliance, and instant delivery for employees in 150+ countries — so you run one global program, not 50 local ones.
The reason is not budget. It is that sending a $50 reward to an employee in Tokyo, Berlin, and São Paulo from one finance system involves three currencies, four tax jurisdictions, and dozens of brand-specific decisions. Most HR teams tap out at "we will do something local for non-US employees."
Manual conversion via spreadsheets leads to inconsistent reward values. A $50 reward becomes $48 in some countries, $52 in others. Employees compare notes.
You bought US Amazon codes for everyone. Polish employees cannot redeem them. German employees get hit with conversion fees. HR has to manually swap and re-distribute.
Each country has different thresholds. UK Trivial Benefits, US $600 rule, Polish ZFŚS, German €60 Sachbezug. Finance flags the whole program as "too risky to scale."
We have seen this pattern in every global rollout. The marketing team announces a "global recognition program," finance approves the budget, and then reality hits: by the time HR has researched tax rules in 12 countries, sourced gift cards that work in each one, set up currency conversion, and figured out how to deliver a code to a contractor in Vietnam — six months have passed and the program is still US-only.
Rewordin exists to compress that six months into one afternoon. Connect your HRIS, set a global budget in your base currency, and every employee — wherever they are — gets a locally-relevant reward in their currency, with the right tax treatment applied, in under 60 seconds.
When a Rewordin reward lands in an employee inbox, it does not feel like an international transfer. It feels like a thoughtful, on-brand reward that someone in their country curated. Same logo, same currency, same brands they would see at their local mall. That difference is the entire point.
We have direct integrations with local brands and processors in 6 regions. Here is the actual coverage — not aspirational.
US, Canada, Mexico covered with full tax compliance (federal/state sales tax, de minimis rules).
VAT-compliant invoicing, Trivial Benefits (UK), ZFŚS (Poland), Benefits in Kind reporting. EU data residency available.
Country-specific catalogs in local currencies. Brazil (BRL), Mexico (MXN), Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru.
Strong local-brand catalogs in Japan, Korea, Singapore, India, Australia, and growing coverage in SE Asia.
GCC catalogs (UAE, Saudi), South Africa, Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria. Expanding monthly.
Strong local coverage in Poland, Czechia, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia. Local currencies, local tax.
You approve a budget in your reporting currency. Every employee receives the equivalent in their local currency at the mid-market rate — no surprise FX fees, no manual math.
We pull mid-market exchange rates from a tier-1 FX provider every 60 seconds during business hours, every 15 minutes overnight. The rate you see in the dashboard is the rate the recipient gets — no markup, no spread, no hidden margin.
For finance teams who do not want surprise FX swings on a quarterly accrual, you can lock in the rate at the moment of approval. Once locked, every reward charged against that approval batch uses the same rate, even if delivered weeks later. Ask your account manager to enable rate lock-in.
If you are running a $500K global rollout, we will work with our FX partner to lock the entire budget at a forward rate for the quarter. This is standard for Enterprise customers; talk to your account manager.
We do not make you learn the Polish ZFŚS or the UK Trivial Benefits rule. We apply the right rule automatically, flag anything that needs accountant review, and generate the reports your finance team needs.
For every reward sent, Rewordin records: sender, recipient, country, amount in local currency, amount in your base currency, the applicable de minimis rule, the tax treatment, and a unique transaction ID. Finance gets one monthly export, broken down by country and tax treatment, in whatever format their accounting system prefers (CSV, JSON, or direct integration).
Connect Workday, SAP, ADP, Personio, BambooHR, or any of our 20+ integrations, and the reward data lands in the right place in the right format for month-end close. No double entry, no manual reconciliation.
Our tax rules are reviewed quarterly by Natalia Kamieniak (CFO, Rewordin) together with our regional tax partners. When a country changes a rule, we update the engine and notify affected customers within 30 days — typically well before the rule takes effect.
Three delivery channels, one tracking dashboard, instant confirmation. The employee always knows what they got, where it came from, and what to do with it.
Delivered to the employee email or Slack/Teams DM within 60 seconds of approval. The email/DM contains: the gift card brand, the exact amount in local currency, a one-tap redemption link, a copy of the message from the sender (if peer-to-peer), and a QR code if they prefer to redeem in-store.
For countries with limited local-brand catalogs, we issue a virtual or physical Visa/Mastercard prepaid card in the local currency. These are accepted everywhere Visa/MC is taken, and they work for online and offline purchases alike. Physical cards ship in 2-3 business days inside the US, EU, and UK; 5-7 days elsewhere.
For high-touch rewards (work anniversaries, retirement gifts, top-performer awards), we offer branded merchandise (premium headphones, smart watches, custom swag boxes) and experiences (dinners, spa days, weekend getaways) delivered locally via our partner network in 60+ countries.
These are the four most common global reward patterns we see across our customers. Each one runs without any manual work once it is set up.
New hire in Tokyo, Berlin, São Paulo, or Sydney gets a welcome gift in their local currency on day one. Automated via Workday/Personio/BambooHR triggers.
Peer-to-peer recognition for fully remote teams. A peer in Singapore recognizes a peer in Dublin — both in their local currency, both instantly.
Pay a global SPIF in the rep's local currency. Top performers in São Paulo, Mumbai, and Amsterdam all get paid the same day, in their currency.
5-year tenure in Manila, 10-year in Bogotá, 20-year in Munich — all recognized in local currency, with the right tax treatment per country.
Natalia oversees the tax engine, FX hedging, and country compliance at Rewordin. She has personally reviewed reward rollouts in 50+ countries, and she still signs off on every new country addition to the platform. Before Rewordin, she ran finance for a 600-person SaaS company operating across 12 European markets — so she knows exactly which questions your CFO will ask, and which answers will unblock the rollout.
The questions our customers and prospects ask most. If yours is not here, our team replies within 4 business hours.
150+ countries. We have local brand partnerships in every major market (US, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Poland, Netherlands, Brazil, Mexico, India, Singapore, Japan, Australia, UAE, South Africa) and can deliver digital gift cards to virtually any country with a digital payments infrastructure.
You set your reward budget in your base currency (USD, EUR, GBP, PLN, etc.) and Rewordin automatically converts to the recipient local currency at real-time mid-market exchange rates. The recipient sees the exact amount in their currency, and your finance team gets one invoice in your base currency. No surprise FX fees on the recipient end.
Yes. Employees see a curated catalog of brands actually available in their country. Someone in Germany sees German brands in EUR (Amazon.de, Otto, MediaMarkt, H&M, Zalando, Lieferando, etc.). Someone in Japan sees Japanese brands in JPY. Someone in Brazil sees Brazilian brands in BRL. We never deliver a US-only Amazon code to an employee in Poland.
Rewordin automatically applies local tax and reporting rules for each country. We track thresholds like de minimis exemptions (e.g. $600 in the US, £60 in the UK under Trivial Benefits, PLN 380 in Poland under ZFŚS), VAT on B2B purchases, sales tax in the US, GST in Australia, and Benefits in Kind rules in the UK. Each month, you get a clean report broken down by country, tax treatment, and cost center.
Digital gift cards are delivered in under 60 seconds to the employee email or Slack/Teams DM. Physical merchandise (branded swag, physical gift cards) ships within 2-3 business days inside the US, EU, and UK. For 80+ other countries, physical delivery is 5-7 business days via tracked courier.
30+ currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, PLN, CHF, SEK, NOK, DKK, CZK, HUF, RON, BGN, HRK, CAD, MXN, BRL, ARS, CLP, COP, PEN, AUD, NZD, JPY, KRW, SGD, HKD, INR, IDR, MYR, THB, PHP, VND, ZAR, AED, SAR, ILS, TRY, EGP, NGN, KES, MAD, GHS, and more. If your currency is not on the list, contact us — we add new currencies monthly.
Yes. You approve a budget of €50,000 in EUR for a global onboarding program. The system automatically converts each $50 reward to PLN for Polish hires, BRL for Brazilian hires, JPY for Japanese hires, etc. at the mid-market rate. Your finance team sees one consolidated EUR invoice.
Yes. For countries with thin local-brand coverage, we deliver Visa or Mastercard prepaid cards in the local currency, accepted everywhere Visa/MC is accepted. These are the right answer for one-time global rollouts, and most customers use them as a fallback alongside local-brand gift cards for major markets.
