Whistle 101


Welcome to Whistle

Welcome to Whistle! Throughout this Module, you will learn the basics of using the Whistle platform. 

There are 4 main parts , or microservices, to Whistle:

  • Programs
  • Learning 
  • Reporting 
  • Wallet


Programs guide your team to reach and even exceed goals. You can customize a program’s metrics, awards, an even the qualifying rules that dictate who is allowed to participate in the program.


Learning Modules help educate teams, furthering their knowledge and keeping them up to date on any information your team needs to succeed. 


Reporting provides an in-depth visual analysis of important and useful data. 

The Wallet is where users store their points. Points can be earned through almost any part of the Whistle platform and can be redeemed for cash using direct deposit or your Whistle Debit Card. 


Each microservice works cohesively, and you’ll get a zoomed-in view on each of them over the next few chapters in this Module.
