Milestone celebrations

Celebrate every milestone automatically

Five years at the company, a 50th birthday, a first year as a customer, a promotion or a new baby. Peoplewisher tracks the dates that matter, writes a message that names the milestone and sends a card made for the moment.

Why it matters

Every person remembered. No extra work.

Recognition only works when it is consistent. Peoplewisher makes sure nobody is missed, without adding work.

  • Recognition that names the moment

    "Happy 10th work anniversary" lands very differently from "Happy anniversary". Peoplewisher counts the years for you.

  • Loyalty you can feel

    Marking a customer's or member's first year shows them they are more than a record in a database.

  • One place for every occasion

    Anniversaries, birthdays and one-off moments like promotions run from the same groups, schedule and history.

FAQ

Milestone celebrations: common questions.

Still have a question? Talk to us.

What counts as a milestone celebration?

Any date that marks progress or a life event: work anniversaries, membership or loyalty anniversaries, wedding anniversaries, milestone birthdays like a 30th or 50th, plus one-off moments such as a promotion, graduation, retirement or new baby. Peoplewisher handles yearly dates automatically and one-off moments as instant or scheduled messages.

How do I automate work anniversary celebrations?

Sync start dates from BambooHR, HiBob, Personio or a spreadsheet into a Peoplewisher group set to work anniversaries. Peoplewisher counts the years, writes a message that names the milestone, adds a branded graphic and posts it to Slack, Teams, email or WhatsApp on the day.

Can I celebrate customer milestones like a first-purchase anniversary?

Yes. Import or sync the first-purchase or join date from your CRM or store, and Peoplewisher sends a thank-you on the anniversary. Campaigns let you add an offer before the date and a follow-up after it.

What is the best way to recognise milestone birthdays?

Use a tool that knows the age. Peoplewisher recognises milestone ages and writes "Happy 50th" rather than a generic greeting, with a personalised card showing the person's photo, name and age.

Can bigger milestones get a gift?

Yes. Gift automations can send digital gift cards or money gifts on the day, with budgets, monthly caps and approvals, so a 10-year anniversary can get more than a 1-year one if you set it up that way.

How much does Peoplewisher cost for milestone celebrations?

There is a free plan available, so you can start without a card and see your first greetings go out. Paid plans include every feature, and SMS and WhatsApp sends are pay-as-you-go. See pricing for the current plans.
