How do I onboard a manager and distribute points?

Admins can upload manager profiles in bulk and distribute points to managers in bulk on the Fond platform.

To use this feature, log in to your Fond account. Click on your initials or profile photo in the top right corner of the screen, then select Admin.

Select the Manage Rewards tab and click Managers.

How to Add Managers in Bulk

Click the Add Managers button at the top of the screen. A sidebar will appear with instructions.

Here, you will upload a CSV file with a list of employee emails you would like to add to Fond as managers for giving. You can download a sample CSV to view the correct formatting for the file.

Click Choose File and select your CSV file.

If your file has any errors, Fond will let you know with error message(s) like the one below.

Once you click on here in the error message, a CSV will automatically download where you can review and correct the errors in your file. Once your file is error-free, the sidebar will display a notification confirming that your file uploaded correctly.

Note: You do not have to maintain multiple .CSV files to add managers on Fond. You can continue to add to the same .CSV and re-upload each time. Additionally, you do not need to remove the ‘Error’ column before re-uploading your corrected file.

Click Save to add these employees as managers to the platform.

How to Distribute Points in Bulk

Here, you will upload a CSV file that contains a list of manager emails, their corresponding rewards points distribution, and how often you want these points to be distributed. You can distribute monthly, quarterly, or one-time.

One-time distributions will be sent to managers immediately. You can download a sample CSV to view the correct formatting for the file.
