Rippling + Nectar Integration
Automatically sync employee data from Rippling into Nectar to power seamless recognition, rewards, and engagement programs.
Keep your workforce data aligned across HR, IT, and culture — without manual uploads or administrative overhead.

- Fast-growing companies that need scalable onboarding and offboarding processes
By integrating Rippling with Nectar, organizations can automatically provision new hires, reflect organizational changes, and streamline offboarding — helping culture programs scale alongside headcount growth.

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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.’”

“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.”

“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.”
