[Reward Gateway](https://giftcard.news/company/reward-gateway/) | [Edenred](https://giftcard.news/company/edenred/) joined the [Workday](https://giftcard.news/company/workday/) partner programme with a Design-Approved integration connecting Workday Human Capital Management to its employee engagement platform. Announced on June 23, the partnership combines employee-data synchronisation with the ability to bring recognition moments into selected Workday HR workflows. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-1)

For an employee-rewards operator, the connection addresses administration around the reward programme. Reward Gateway's existing recognition offering includes instant eGift cards alongside experiences and company-branded rewards. The partnership links the underlying employee and recognition information; the announcement does not establish a new gift-card catalogue or redemption channel inside Workday. [\[S02\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-2)

## Connecting recognition workflows and assessing customer evidence

The first part of the integration automatically transfers worker details and organisational information from Workday to Reward Gateway | Edenred. The company says this is intended to reduce manual administration and file uploads. Maintaining those records in the engagement platform is part of operating a programme across a changing workforce. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-1)

The second part brings selected recognition moments into Workday workflows, including check-ins and performance reviews. Its purpose is to give managers more visibility into recognition when they are already reviewing an employee's work. The integration therefore connects two different records: who belongs in the employee platform, and how recognition can inform an HR conversation. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-1)

Reward Gateway's integration page describes the connection as bidirectional. That description supports the exchange of employee data and recognition information, but it does not mean every HR field or reward transaction is shared. The announcement identifies selected workflows and does not provide a complete data-field specification. [\[S03\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-3)

Reward Gateway | Edenred supplies recognition, rewards, communications, wellbeing and benefits within a configurable engagement platform. The company says it has worked with more than 6,000 organisations and is part of Edenred Group. Workday provides the HCM environment with which that engagement platform connects. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-1)

Chief product officer [Laszlo Kardos](https://giftcard.news/person/laszlo-kardos/) framed the partnership around customers' demand for connected engagement and HR systems. The business rationale is straightforward: a rewards provider becomes easier to operate alongside an employer's existing system when employee updates and recognition information require less manual transfer. That is an operational benefit the integration seeks to deliver, rather than evidence that employers will spend more on rewards. [\[S01\]](https://giftcard.news/rewards-loyalty/reward-gateway-workday-partner-hcm-recognition-integration/#article-source-1)

The announcement describes lower administration and better data integrity as intended benefits. It supplies no measured reduction in processing time or errors, no customer adoption results and
