  3. A group of friends laughing and taking a selfie on a rooftop

    Step 3: Share the joy!

    Once your card is ready and you’ve collected all the videos, send it to the staff member and share a truly memorable and heart felt recognition message.

Ideas for a kudos video card that means something

Recognition lands best when it is specific to one person and one achievement. Here is how to make a kudos video card count.

  1. Name the achievement

    Be clear about what you are celebrating, like a product launch, a sales target or going above and beyond for a customer.

  2. Invite the people who saw it

    Ask teammates, other departments and even happy customers they worked with to describe the impact.

  3. Include their manager

    A message from their manager or a senior leader shows the recognition is noticed across the business.

  4. Send it while it is fresh

    Kudos feel best soon after the win, so set a short deadline for videos.

  5. Give them a keepsake

    The recipient can download their videos, so they can keep the recognition well after the moment passes.

Tears of joy!

I received videos from friends and family from all over the world. It’s probably the most heart warming gift I’ve ever received. I was in tears after watching the videos.

FAQs

What are group recognition video cards?

Joycards enable you to collate recognition video messages from coworkers to create a single kudos card, containing many video messages, for the employee who deserves the credit for a job well done.

It's not just for recognition though! You can use it for all types of birthday cards, Boss's Day video cards, employee appreciation, farewell cards, get-well-soon cards, and all other times you want to send an employee more joy than traditional greeting cards or messages on recognition software.

How does it work?

Sign up for free and create your video. Then invite coworkers to add their video to the card. When you've received all the videos simply send your Joycard to the deserving staff member.

How many people can contribute to the kudos video card?

On the Joyful plan you can have up to 50 people contribute a video to your Joycard. Plus, the creator of the card can upload 3 of their own videos on the Joyful plan.

Is Joycards free?

Joycards offers a generous free tier 😄. For larger cards and additional features we charge a small fee. Visit our pricing page for more information.

How long are the videos?

A great heartfelt message, in a group video card, usually lasts for around 20 - 90 seconds. However, on our Joyful plan you can record for up to 180 seconds (3 minutes).

Can I download my videos?

Your videos will be available in your account, and in the recipients account, for the duration of your plan. Plus, you can download the videos at any time.

How do I share the video card with my employee?

You'll find a unique recipient link, for the employee recognition card you created, in your Joycard account. Simply send the link via email, text, Slack, Microsoft Teams or other messaging app to your employees.
