"We’ve got a lot of employees who don’t have access to an intranet or similar resources, so having everything related to employee benefits in one place is really helpful. That includes leased cars, cash plans, and our well‑being portal through Reward Gateway, which I think is a particularly valuable tool."

“We had a member of staff who saved over four thousand pounds through the platform, which is incredible — really impressive. When you think about that in terms of effectively adding it to your salary, it becomes a genuinely valuable benefit.”

"The MI tools available through Reward Gateway are really powerful for us. They allow us to identify which functions across the organisation are actively using the benefits and which ones aren’t, so we can target the right groups more effectively.”
