Rakuten Rewards vs. Tremendous

Anyone who is shopping online for personal or business can utilize Rakuten (Ebates) to find special offers, coupons, and discounts and get rebates back from their everyday personal or business shopping. I recommend adding the Google Chrome Extension to make it easier to find and get rebates.

Tremendous is well suited for businesses giving gift cards to employees as a reward or to research participants as thanks/compensation for their time. It's not like a cash sharing software between friends. It is also best for relatively small amounts of money because the sender runs the risk of sending the reward to the wrong email

We investigated Amazon Business account for sending cards directly, but we would have to register in each country and they only supported a few countries. Not to mention their interface was not nearly as streamlined as Tremendous. There really weren't many other competitors that we could find at the time. And we didn't need any, Tremendous has met our needs very well.

• The technology is a big selling point for us when winning work by being able to say we have the ability to quickly distribute respondent incentives and that the respondents have so many options to choose from when redeeming their reward
