EE Incentives

What EE Incentives does

EE Incentives is a Chattanooga, Tennessee-based private company founded in 2011 (originally as EnergyEarth, rebranded in 2019) that designs and operates incentive, rewards, and loyalty programs for enterprise clients and their employees, customers, and channel partners. The company serves verticals including retail energy, telecommunications, logistics/package delivery, financial services, and nonprofit/community organizations, with stated program coverage across the U.S., Canada, and the UK. The platform supports use cases spanning customer acquisition, retention, churn reduction, cross-sell/upsell, paperless billing adoption, employee recognition, and ESG/sustainability initiatives.

The core product suite is organized around four platform components: (1) Reward Builder, a self-serve administrative tool for ordering branded rewards (gift cards, prepaid Visa cards, home/lifestyle products) with no contracts, minimums, or IT integration; (2) a Customized/White-Label Reward Platform for tailored enterprise programs; (3) a Points and Loyalty Platform marketed as reducing loyalty costs by up to 50%; and (4) Direct Fulfillment, an in-house Chattanooga warehouse operation that produces branded boxes, kits, and inserts with delivery reporting. Supporting these are Sustainability Solutions (energy savings kits, weatherization, green rewards) and Customized Programs (full-service, white-labeled programs with $0 stated start-up cost).

EE Incentives generates revenue through a hybrid model combining transaction-based reward certificate sales (face-value pricing, no markup), subscription/managed-services fees for white-label programs, and hardware/product revenue from sustainability kits. Go-to-market mixes a product-led self-serve channel with an inside-sales enterprise motion targeting large accounts, supported by a website, LinkedIn presence, Calendly-based demo scheduling, and direct phone/email sales contact. The company employs 11–50 people, has not disclosed external funding, and reports no public revenue figures.
