How It Works
Nectar
Users get a monthly allowance of points to give out that refresh every month. Earned points can be spent on gift cards or Amazon products.

Users give monetary or non-monetary recognition by choosing an award level, each with it's own point value and eligible givers and receivers. Earned points can be redeemed for gift cards, physical products, experiences, or donations.
