BambooHR + Nectar Integration

Bring your employee data into Nectar automatically with the BambooHR integration —

making recognition, rewards, and culture programs easier to launch and manage.

Sync employee profiles from BambooHR into Nectar so your team stays up to date without manual uploads or admin work.

Overview

The BambooHR + Nectar integration connects your HR system directly to Nectar, allowing employee data to flow seamlessly into your recognition and rewards platform.

This integration is built for HR and People Ops teams who want to:

  • Reduce manual employee onboarding tasks
  • Keep Nectar employee profiles accurate and current
  • Launch recognition programs faster with clean HRIS data

By syncing BambooHR with Nectar, companies can ensure every employee is automatically included in culture initiatives from day one.

How It Works

Nectar integrates with BambooHR to sync key employee information into the Nectar platform.

What data syncs

Common employee fields include:

  • Name
  • Work email
  • Job title
  • Department
  • Manager
  • Location
  • Employment status

Sync behavior

  • New hires added in BambooHR can be automatically created in Nectar
  • Employee updates in BambooHR stay aligned inside Nectar
  • Departing employees can be deactivated to maintain accurate access

Authentication method

The integration connects securely through BambooHR’s API (admin-authorized access).

Where users interact

Admins manage the integration inside Nectar settings, while employees experience Nectar normally — recognition, rewards, and engagement powered by accurate HR data behind the scenes.

What our customers are saying

"Before Nectar, our turnover rate was around 25%. Now it’s less than 7%, which has made a huge difference for us in keeping our team together.”

Kelly Hayes
Director of Human Resources

“Before Nectar, our wellness program participation was just over 35%. Now, we’re seeing participation rates close to 80%, which has been a game-changer for employee engagement.”

Lorelei N.
Community Engagement Director

“We used to spend up to two days each month manually recognizing employees for birthdays and anniversaries. Now, Nectar handles all of that automatically, which has been a huge time-saver.”

Hannah R.
Senior HR Director

“One of our team members said, ‘It’s the little things like getting recognized that make me feel like I’m not just a number, even when I’m working remotely.’”

Zach C.
Marketing Manager

“Even with everyone working from home, it felt like we were all still part of the same team when we saw those shout-outs come through.”

Robin C.
People and Culture Manager

“I credit Nectar with keeping our engagement from taking a huge hit during challenges that the business has faced. Like many companies, we went through a huge cost saving exercise over the last 6 months... but I will tell you it was NEVER an option for leadership to consider canceling or changing the Nectar contract. It's too important to who we are.”

Jennifer N.
Director of People and Culture
