In a fast-paced world where employee engagement can make or break a safety initiative, traditional training sessions often fall flat—think dusty manuals and mandatory Zoom calls that no one remembers. Enter custom scratch-off cards: the gamified secret weapon that's transforming safety programs into interactive, reward-driven experiences. At My Scratch Offs, with over 15 years in the game, we've partnered with industry giants like Amazon, Walmart, Schnucks, Niagara, and AT&T to craft these fun, effective tools. And the results? Repeat orders year after year, because they actually work.
Did you know gamification in safety training can boost employee engagement by up to 48%?

It's not just hype—it's a proven way to reinforce safe behaviors while keeping teams motivated and excited. Ready to level up your safety game? Let's dive in.
Why Scratch-Off Cards? Because Engagement = Fewer Accidents
Safety programs aren't just about compliance; they're about building a culture where everyone wants to prioritize safety. Our custom scratch-off cards turn recognition into a thrill, making safe practices feel rewarding rather than routine. Here's why top companies keep coming back:
- Proven Impact: Multiple Fortune 500 clients like Amazon and Walmart have ordered annually, reporting higher participation rates in safety protocols. Gamified tools like these lead to measurable wins, such as reduced incidents and improved retention of safety knowledge.
-
Boosts Morale: Employees aren't just told to be safe—they're celebrated for it. This fosters a positive vibe, with studies showing gamification makes workers feel happier and more productive.

- Scalable & Fun: Affordable, customizable, and easy to deploy, these cards fit any budget while delivering that "instant win" dopamine hit.
How It Works: From Instant Wins to Epic Rewards
Our Safety Rewards Scratch-Off Cards are designed for seamless integration into your program. When an employee nails a safe behavior—like proper PPE use or hazard reporting—they get a card. Scratch, reveal, and boom: motivation unlocked. We collaborate with your team to tailor designs, messaging, and rewards that align with your policies.Choose your adventure:
Instant Reward Mode
Perfect for on-the-spot recognition. The card uncovers an immediate prize, keeping the energy high without delay. Options include:
- Swag like logo'd T-shirts or branded merch
- Quick treats: Gift cards, gas cards, paid lunches, or sweet snacks
- Cash bonuses or even PTO hours
- Budget-friendly sundries from your onsite store
Savings Reward Mode (Points Power-Up)
For bigger impacts, build a points-based system where scratches reveal redeemable points. Accumulate them for high-value items, turning safety into a long-term game. How it calculates? Simple: Assign point values based on item cost (e.g., 1 point = $1 equivalent). A $50 gift card = 50 points; a flat-screen TV = 500 points; and yes, we've seen programs redeem for cars (think 5,000+ points for that grand prize). Track via a simple app or leaderboard to gamify progress further.
This tiered approach encourages consistent safe habits, with redemption events that feel like company parties.
When to Launch: Timing Is Everything
The beauty of scratch-offs? They're flexible for any season. Align your rollout with peak risks or high-stakes periods to maximize ROI:
- High-Volume Seasons: Amazon kicks off in early September to prep for PeakFest—their Q4 frenzy with seasonal hires. Safety slips? Not on their watch.
- Industry Peaks: Niagara ramps up in spring/summer for bottling surges, when slips and strains spike.
- Your Sweet Spot: Audit your data—when are accidents most common? Launch pre-shift meetings, monthly challenges, or end-of-quarter pushes.
