What One10 does

One10 is a private, Minneapolis-based motivation science company that designs and operates incentive, recognition, and rewards programs for large enterprise clients. Its core product portfolio centers on the PerformX® platform, comprising the PerformX Incentive Platform for sales and channel partner incentive management with claims, training integration, and program communications; the PerformX Engagement Platform for real-time peer and manager recognition and culture reinforcement; and the Rewarding You global rewards catalog spanning 185 countries, 38 languages, and 62 currencies, with prepaid card and digital disbursement capabilities. The Xperience Index™ framework, launched in June 2026, adds an analytics layer to quantify return on experience for meetings and incentive travel programs. Technology is delivered alongside professional services in incentive travel, events, training, communications, and analytics strategy, with AI applied primarily to personalized reward recommendations via search and click pattern analysis.

The company is backed by private equity firm Bow River Capital (strategic investment June 2022) and pursues an active M&A strategy, completing acquisitions of First Lorandus Global Inc. (Ontario, January 2024), Gavel International (Chicago, December 2024), and Whistle (St. Louis, July 2025) to extend capability and geographic reach. It operates with 501-1000 employees and reports an average client tenure of 15 years, a 92 NPS, and a 9.64/10 customer satisfaction score, supporting named enterprise relationships with Walmart, Subaru, Volkswagen, Workday, GM, and BMC Software across automotive, insurance, financial services, pharmaceutical, and technology verticals. Revenue is generated through enterprise subscription pricing for PerformX, professional services fees for travel/events/training, and rewards fulfillment economics, with distribution via direct enterprise field sales and inside sales rather than self-serve channels. The company is led by President and CEO Drew Carter, appointed March 2026, with Bob Miller transitioning to Vice Chairman as part of a 2030 vision.
