Businesses don’t know about it

The app works well but every place we’ve tried to use it has never heard of it. It’s caused a lot of embarrassment and a lot of time wasted explaining to employees, then managers, how this is supposed to work. Shouldn’t there be some kind of training when businesses sign up for this? Great system. Poor implementation.

Awesome choice

Making this app was genius and definitely creates a real impact from the places that are benefiting. Before, I couldn’t really rationalize going out very much and not necessarily to local restaurants when chains are often more competitive at price point. However, this app changed everything. Now if I go out to a nice restaurant on the list, I can afford to grab coffee at my local place every day and feel good about going. It’s pretty addicting.

Thank you for this awesome feedback!

Easy to use!

Love this app! Earning points could not be more simple. I was a bit worried about the process for redeeming the points, but it was really easy/intuitive for myself. The small business owner was very appreciative and mentioned how quick the city is at paying businesses back for redeemed points. Win-win! Can’t wait to use this for my holiday shopping.
