Rewards sit at the centre of every effective B2B loyalty or incentive strategy because they give participants a clear reason to engage, take action, and stay connected to your brand.
Choosing the right reward mix can shift behaviour, increase program engagement, and create memorable experiences that strengthen customer and partner relationships over time.
This guide explores the three core B2B reward types that drive the strongest outcomes in the ANZ market. You will learn how merchandise, branded cash, and incentive travel each support different program goals and how a balanced approach can help you motivate consistent performance.
Whether your priority is lifting sales, reinforcing loyalty, or driving advocacy, this guide will help you align your reward strategy with the results you want to achieve.
Rewards are often the first reason participants engage with your program, so the value you offer needs to feel relevant, motivating, and aligned to your goals.
When your reward mix delivers genuine impact, it encourages customers to return, repeat behaviours, and build stronger connections with your brand.
We support this from start to finish. As an end-to-end reward partner, we source and manage merchandise, deliver branded Visa prepaid solutions, and design incentive travel experiences that create lasting advocacy.

Non-cash rewards create a lasting emotional connection and a “trophy value” that cash incentives typically lack. A memorable experience or a tangible gift serves as a powerful and constant reminder of the achievement, strengthening the bond with your company.
A powerful B2B reward is one that is desirable, memorable, and feels exclusive, making the recipient feel genuinely valued for their efforts. The most effective reward strategy offers a choice of tangible items and unique experiences to appeal to a diverse business audience.
B2B rewards provide a clear and compelling psychological motivation to perform specific actions, such as increasing purchase volume or choosing your brand over a competitor. This makes a well-planned reward strategy a crucial component of any successful loyalty or sales incentive program.
While the underlying B2B rewards catalogue might be similar, an effective reward strategy frames them differently for sales teams versus end-customers. Sales incentives are positioned to drive performance and competition, while customer rewards are used to build a long-term, mutually beneficial partnership.
A business selects the right mix of B2B rewards by understanding its audience and offering a broad choice of appealing options, from merchandise and gift cards to exclusive travel. Providing this flexibility ensures your reward strategy has something to motivate everyone, maximizing engagement and ROI.
