Frequently asked questions
Does Hoppier integrate with Slack?
Yes - the Slack integration is in beta. Tell us you'd like it from the Integrations page in your Hoppier dashboard and our team switches it on for your account. You can also reward Slack events today through Hoppier's Zapier app, the Hoppier API (beta), a CSV bulk send, or an AI assistant connected to the Hoppier MCP.
What can I automate between Slack and Hoppier?
Slack events like shout-out posted, workflow form submitted and celebration date reached send rewards automatically, and Hoppier can post reward announcement or send notification in Slack afterwards. A popular setup: a teammate posts a shout-out in #wins - send the person recognized a $20 coffee card.
What rewards can recipients choose?
Each recipient gets one link and picks from 3,000+ gift card brands or a prepaid Visa, redeemable in 60+ countries in their local currency.
What happens to cards nobody uses?
On Hoppier Plus plans, 100% of unspent value returns to your balance. Across 2,090 programs on our platform, 37% of gift value goes unspent on average - recovery is usually the deciding economics.
Can I start rewarding Slack events before the integration is switched on?
Yes. Export a list from Slack and upload it as a Hoppier bulk send, use Hoppier's Zapier app to add people to a program from any app Zapier connects to, call the Hoppier API (beta) from your own code, or connect an AI assistant to the Hoppier MCP and ask it to run the send.
