What Are YEY Shinys?

YEY Shinys are digital collectibles that employees earn whenever they meet a KPI or achieve a milestone. These aren’t just cute icons on a screen—they represent effort, success, and the potential for more exciting rewards.

How Employees Can Use YEY Shinys

1. Qualify for Draws: Employees who collect specific Shinys or reach a certain number can join exclusive raffles or giveaways for big-ticket prizes.
2. Redeem Rewards: Employees can trade their Shinys for company-defined rewards like vouchers, gadgets, or extra vacation days.
3. Showcase Achievements: Shinys act as a phygital reward—they’re visible in their YEY account and can have a physical counterpart (like badges, certificates, or trophies) to boost recognition.

Why Gamify Your Employee Rewards Program?

Gamification turns standard recognition into an experience. Here’s why YEY Shinys are a game-changer:

• Motivational Boost: The collectible nature of Shinys makes achieving KPIs feel like leveling up in a game.
• Personalized Engagement: Employees can pursue rewards that matter most to them, whether it’s a luxury item or a meaningful badge of honor.
• Ongoing Excitement: Shinys encourage consistent effort by offering both short-term wins and long-term goals.
• Cultural Impact: The physical rewards tied to Shinys foster a sense of community and pride among employees.

How to Use YEY Shinys in Your Employee Rewards Program

1. Tie Shinys to Specific KPIs

Set up a system where employees earn Shinys for achieving measurable goals:

• Meeting sales quotas.
• Completing projects ahead of schedule.
• Going above and beyond in teamwork or innovation.

For example, a sales rep hitting their monthly target could earn a “Sales Star” Shiny, while a team that completes a big project could receive a “Collaboration Champ” Shiny.

2. Set Up Exclusive Rewards

Decide how employees can use their Shinys:

• Draw Qualifications: Collect 10 Shinys to enter a quarterly raffle for grand prizes like tech gadgets or travel packages.
• Reward Redemption: Offer a menu of rewards they can “purchase” with Shinys, such as gift cards, office perks, or wellness packages.

3. Create a Phygital Experience

Enhance the digital Shinys with a physical counterpart:

• Award a custom-designed badge or sticker to employees who earn specific Shinys.
• Set up a display board in the office to celebrate top collectors or achievers.
• Create a tangible Shiny Album where employees can track their progress, turning the program into a collectible journey.

4. Launch Team Challenges

Take engagement up a notch with team-wide challenges:

• Set collective goals and reward everyone on the team with a unique “Team Triumph” Shiny if they succeed.
• Organize inter-departmental competitions with Shinys as participation incentives.
