Custom allowances and coin exclusions

Give some people or teams a different allowance, or stop someone giving or receiving coins.

Who can use this: Owners and admins. Members need the Members permission; teams need the Teams permission; exclusions need the Rewards permission.

For one person#

  1. Go to Manage → Members.
  2. Open the ⋯ menu next to the person and choose Edit.
  3. Enter a Custom allowance. Leave it empty to use their team's or the company default.
  4. Click Save changes.

For a team#

  1. Go to Manage → Teams and edit the team.
  2. Enter a Team allowance. It applies to everyone on the team, including its managers.

Which allowance wins#

  1. A person's own custom allowance.
  2. Otherwise, their team's allowance. If they're in several teams, the highest one.
  3. Otherwise, the company default.

Stop someone giving or receiving coins#

Go to Manage → Rewards → Settings → Who gives and receives.

  • Don't give coins: their allowance is 0. They can still send kudos without coins.
  • Don't receive coins: kudos, add-ons, and spot awards to them carry no coins. The sender keeps their coins and sees a note explaining why.

This suits contractors who shouldn't earn coins, or leaders who'd rather not give them.
