Best Augeo alternatives: why teams choose Plum
Augeo is a 25-year-old engagement company spanning workplace recognition, consumer rewards, and loyalty media. This page walks through where Plum's API-first, self-serve model diverges from Augeo's agency-led, quote-gated approach - and why it matters for teams that need to launch and scale reward programs fast.

Feature Comparison
How Xoxoday Plum Addresses Feature Gaps with Augeo
Augeo brings genuine scale to workplace recognition, consumer rewards, and dealer incentives - a 1.25 million-product catalog and 4,200+ gift card merchants among them. Where it diverges from Plum is deployment model: Augeo programs are built and changed through an account team, while Plum is designed for teams that want to launch and iterate themselves.

Beyond the Platform
Beyond the Platform - What You Get When You Choose Plum
Two different models, honestly compared.
Augeo brings real scale and decades of relationships across workplace recognition, dealer incentives, and consumer loyalty - and a 1.25 million-product merchandise catalog that few platforms can match. That depth suits enterprises that already work with Augeo's account teams across multiple specialized business units.
Plum's tradeoff is honest: its own catalog favors breadth of categories and countries over Augeo's merchandise depth, and teams that want a single account team handling every detail of a program may prefer Augeo's white-glove model over Plum's self-serve one.
Where Plum differs is deployment. Self-serve infrastructure, a public API sandbox, and one platform across employee rewards, consumer promotions, channel incentives, and payouts - without a separate engagement for every business unit or new market.

Real results from teams running global reward programs
Leading teams rely on Xoxoday Plum to run scalable rewards and incentives programs with greater control and visibility.
Matt Wale
Head of Growth Marketing, Xero
SaaS · Referral Rewards
We were manually sourcing and sending rewards one by one. With Plum, the entire program runs itself - and our referral program delivered 20% growth year on year.
Our employees really like the Xoxoday rewarding process. The customer service they offer is exceptional and commendable. That was the most important criterion for us when deciding on them.

Retail · Employee Rewards
We used to spend weeks coordinating survey incentives manually. With Plum, distribution is fully automated - respondent experience improved and our ops team got that time back.
