Connect Rippling to Nectar so every employee is enrolled in your recognition program from day one — with milestones triggered automatically from Rippling data and departed employees removed cleanly at offboarding.
thePeopleStack configures the Rippling–Nectar integration with employee provisioning tied to Rippling's hire events and group structure mapped to Rippling's department and team data. We set up anniversary and birthday recognition triggers from Rippling's HR data so milestone celebrations run automatically — not from a manual HR calendar. We configure the offboarding workflow to deactivate Nectar accounts at termination and advise on point balance handling for departing employees.
For clients using Nectar alongside a broader employee engagement stack — including performance management or pulse survey tools also integrated with Rippling — we ensure the recognition data layer is connected to the same employee identity so engagement signals from multiple tools can be analyzed against the same workforce profile.
Nectar recognition and rewards is deployed by thePeopleStack's Rippling clients primarily for US employee populations, with recognition programs, reward point budgets, and peer-to-peer sending configured around US org hierarchies and Rippling's US employee data.
Canadian and cross-border operations: Canadian employees are provisioned into Nectar through the same Rippling sync, with thePeopleStack confirming PIPEDA-relevant data handling for employee recognition records and ensuring that reward redemption options and currency handling are configured appropriately for Canadian employees in the program.
Rippling acts as the identity source for Nectar, provisioning new employees into the recognition platform at hire with the correct team and department assignment. Manager-status data from Rippling determines who has budget allocation authority in Nectar. Offboarding in Rippling deactivates the Nectar user account, stopping recognition sends and updating the active participant roster.
Yes. Rippling department and team data drives Nectar's group structure — ensuring peer-to-peer recognition flows within and across the correct team boundaries. Work anniversaries and birthdays in Rippling can trigger automated Nectar recognition prompts, so milestone celebrations happen without HR manually tracking and initiating them.
Employee termination in Rippling deactivates the Nectar user account, stopping new recognition sends to or from that individual. Any unredeemed reward points should be addressed according to your program policy before the account is deactivated — thePeopleStack advises on point forfeiture versus redemption grace periods as part of the offboarding configuration.
Yes. Nectar recognition data — sent recognitions, received recognitions, point balances, and program participation rates — can be surfaced back into Rippling's people analytics layer through custom field sync or exported alongside Rippling workforce data for holistic employee engagement reporting.
A standard configuration covering employee provisioning, department group mapping, anniversary and birthday triggers, and offboarding deprovisioning typically takes 2–4 hours. Programs with custom reward catalogs, tiered recognition budgets by role, or integration with Nectar's Amazon storefront redemption layer may require additional configuration time.
