If you are a US based company only (or maybe just US and Canada or UK) the product works particularly well. I think it makes more sense to provide gifts rather than gift cards as rewards, as people don't really cash out the gift cards.

It also would have been nice to have a way to provide the feedback directly from slack without going into the Nectar platform.

We eventually decided to switch back to Lattice. We liked Nectar because it was an all in one feedback & gifting platform, but ultimately switched to Lattice paired with Snappy gifts for gifting as Snappy is able to provide physical gifts in US and Germany, and Lattice provides us other capabilities besides feedback such as performance reviews, engagement surveys, hosting 1:1s, utilizing competencies...
