Yes! VPM Solutions allows companies to send one-time payments to Remote Team Members for a variety of reasons beyond regular time-tracked hours. These are commonly used to reward performance or recognize special occasions.
Why Give a One-Time Payment?
VPM has found that one-time payments can serve multiple purposes, including:
-
Performance-Based Rewards:
If a Remote Team Member hits specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)—such as achieving a milestone or contributing to a company goal—a one-time payment can be used as a performance bonus. -
Incentives for Deliverables:
For example, some companies give bonuses when a team member helps generate a positive Google review or completes a project that exceeds expectations. -
Holiday or Special Occasion Gifts:
Companies often want to show appreciation during holidays such as Christmas, Thanksgiving, or even a team member’s birthday. A one-time payment can be used as a goodwill gesture during these times.
