Meet your new Profile Page

Learn how to view and use profile pages in Bonusly to see recognition activity, top connections, and core values at a glance.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Your profile page is where you can see how recognition flows to and from you. It's a quick way to understand who you're connecting with most, which values you're living out, and what your recognition activity looks like over time.


Why it matters

Profile pages help you:

  • See recognition at a glance — Browse everything you've received or given in one place

  • Discover your top connections — Find out who you interact with most through recognition, add-ons, and comments

  • Understand your values — See which hashtags (especially core values) show up most in the recognition you receive

  • Take action — Give recognition or ask for advice directly from someone's profile


Getting to a profile

Your own profile: Click your avatar in the bottom-left corner and select "View profile." You can also go directly to app.bonus.ly/company/users/me.

Someone else's profile: Click their name or avatar anywhere in Bonusly — in the feed, on a recognition card, in search results, or on the leaderboard.


What you'll see

Header

At the top, you'll find the basics: name, username, department, team, and location. If you're viewing your own profile, you'll see a "Profile settings" button. On someone else's profile, you'll see:

  • Give recognition — Start a recognition for this person

  • "•••" menu — If you're viewing someone else's profile, you'll still see Give recognition. If that person is your direct report, the ••• menu now includes more manager actions too. Depending on what's already set up, you may see options to start or open a 1:1, create a goal, share advice, create a custom recap, or create a spotlight.

Activity feed

The left side of the page shows recognition activity in two tabs:

  • Received — Recognition this person has received

  • Given — Recognition this person has given

Click any recognition to expand it and see the full details, comments, and add-ons.

Sidebar widgets

The right side shows insights based on a time range you can adjust (defaults to 90 days):

  • Top connections
    The 5 people this person has exchanged the most recognition with. Hover over any connection to see the breakdown — how many recognitions, add-ons, and comments went each direction.

  • Top hashtags
    The 5 hashtags that appear most in recognition this person has received. If it's a core value hashtag, hover to see its description.

  • Time range
    At the bottom of the sidebar, you can change the time range for both widgets. Choose from 30, 60, 90, or 120 days — or a full year.


Customize your navigation

Anyone can personalize their view from the "Customize navigation" menu in the More panel. Settings apply only to that user's view. And they can reset to the company order at any time.

Sections you can customize

Users can choose visibility for key navigation areas, including:

  • 1:1s - Manage recurring 1:1 meetings, notes, and follow-ups.

  • Goals - Create and track goals to keep progress visible.

  • Recaps - Review summaries and highlights from recent activity and check-ins.

  • Team - View your team space and people-focused insights.

  • Rewards - Browse and redeem available rewards.

  • Incentives - Explore programs and incentive opportunities.

  • Leaderboard - See recognition activity and rankings across your organization.

  • Celebrations - Keep up with birthdays, anniversaries, and team milestones.

  • Advice - Share feedback or request advice from teammates and managers.

Some navigation items cannot be moved. This includes Announcements (if an announcement is active), Home, and Search.
