Xoxoday Plum supports sending Xoxo reward codes and shareable links in a deactivated state, enabling on-demand activation so rewards reach recipients at precisely the right time.
Timing is central to any effective rewards program. Delivering a gift card before a milestone is confirmed or a campaign goes live can undercut the impact you intended. Xoxoday Plum addresses this directly with a deactivated delivery model that keeps activation control firmly with the program administrator.
When you configure a reward campaign in Xoxoday Plum, Xoxo reward codes or links can be dispatched to recipients before they go live. The recipient receives the communication — whether that is an email, a Slack notification, or a Microsoft Teams message — but the code itself remains inactive. Activation happens separately, triggered only when your team is ready.
This separation of delivery from redemption availability is especially useful in milestone-driven programs. Consider a quarterly sales incentive distributed through SAP SuccessFactors or Darwinbox: HR can schedule reward codes to be delivered at quarter-end while holding activation until finance signs off on the final payout numbers. Recipients feel recognized immediately, and redemption is gated until all conditions are confirmed.
On-demand activation also reduces reward leakage. In a traditional setup, once a code is delivered it is immediately live — if an employee exits before redeeming it, that value may be unrecoverable. With Xoxoday Plum’s deactivated model, rewards for individuals who no longer qualify can simply remain inactive, giving program managers a clean and auditable failsafe.
The same logic applies to channel partner and customer loyalty programs. A partner portal integrated with Xoxoday Plum can send reward acknowledgements the moment a deal is registered, while activation is tied to deal closure verification. Partners stay motivated without the business incurring exposure from premature redemptions.
For teams running Workday-connected reward workflows, activation can be linked directly to system events — a performance review submission, a service anniversary trigger, or a training completion flag — making the entire flow programmable without manual steps.
Xoxoday Plum is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified. The activation flow, including any API calls used to trigger it, operates within a security-audited infrastructure. Every activation event is logged, giving compliance teams a full audit trail of when and by whom each reward was made live.
