Every Matter workspace starts with eight ready to use spot awards. They start turned off, so you can edit each one before your team sees it.
đĄ New to Matter Spot Awards? Start with the Spot Awards Guide. Spot Awards work the same way in Slack, Microsoft Teams, and the Web App, even if your workspace uses its own name, like Hero Award.
The default spot awards
Spot award | Use it for |
Above and Beyond | Someone who went well past what was asked |
Culture Champion | Someone who lives your company values |
Customer Hero | Someone who turned a customer's day around |
Employee of the Month | Your standout person each month |
Innovation Award | A new idea that made work better |
Outstanding Achievement | Hitting a big goal or milestone |
Rookie Award | A new teammate making an early impact |
Unsung Hero | Important work that usually goes unnoticed |
Each default award comes with a Matter Template image and this default message, which the giver can edit:
đ Congratulations {user}! Youâve earned {award_name}. Your impact truly makes a difference. đ
