    Pros:
    It accomplished exactly what we were looking for in offering up a food credit to people who attend our virtual trainings.
    Cons:
    It took a couple instances of our events and issuing the credits to get the hang of it. After that, pretty easy peasy.

    Reasons for choosing Hoppier

    Pricing and quick follow up from Hoppier team. Much more nimble.

    Pros:
    I like the fact that Hoppier works across several countries and is a good option when considering gifting a large number of individuals spread across different countries of the world.
    Cons:
    I don't like the idea of a higher $6 participation fee, with the 3% processing fee. There are other platforms that charge just a processing fee and not a $6 participation fee. I don't like the idea of Hoppier card not having the option of transfer to local banks by default.

    Reasons for choosing Hoppier

    The function of transferring to the local bank is one that many recipients like.

    Bad Customer Support

    Not great - which is sad, cause I think it's a great service. As with so many companies, it's the things around the service causing issues, i.e. after-sales, admon etc.

    Pros:
    Ease of use. A great service that allows me to incentivise my people on the other side of the world.
    Cons:
    Some cards has limitations on, but nowhere is this mentioned. Only after my employees complained that they can't use it and I emailed Hoppier did I got the answer of why not. With a bunch of emails then back-and-forth, 3 people of Hoppier were unable to either cancel the limitation I put on my purchase (i.e. to open it up to my employees to use it on and vendor on not just the ones I selected), or to cancel the whole transaction all together. I eventually gave up as no-one were able to help, but also never gave me a clear indication that they can't. I was just always transferred to someone new that couldn't read the mail trail and I then had te re-explain everything again.

    Vendor Response

    Hi there, Cassy here, CEO of Hoppier. Thanks for the honest feedback and I am sorry for the frustration you experienced. You are right that while the product works well, our after sales support missed the mark in your case. We also should have been clearer upfront about card limitations and restrictions. The repeated handoffs and lack of clear answers are not the experience we want customers to have. We have since improved ownership and escalation so cases are handled end to end by one person. I appreciate you still recognizing the value of the service, and I would be happy to personally review your case if you are open to it.

    Hoppier - Great Platform and Easy to Use to Send Gift Cards

    5

    We have been customers with Hoppier for over 2 years now and it has been a great switch for us. The ease of sending a gift card to our employees in a pinch and the team likes the instant gratification of receiving the gift card.

    Pros:
    The Hoppier Support Team is very responsive and on top of any problem that may arise. The tracking of the gift cards and being able to get money back for those that don't use the platform. In the past when we would send out a gift card in the mail they would get lost and never knew if they were redeemed.
    Cons:
    Challenges with Gift Cards working at times but the support team has a new system in place which is no longer an issue for us.

    Reasons for switching to Hoppier

    Gift Card would get lost in the mail, employees would never pick them up from the office and it was difficult tot rack

    Hoppier is Still a Win

    It was easy to implement and has been easy to manage overall. Staff enjoy it, and we have not found an equivalent program that meets the value and functionality of Hoppier yet.

    Pros:
    Hoppier is quite user-friendly for both the program manager and the recipient. It's easy to get new contacts set up in the account, create new programs, and distribute funds. We especially like that unused funds are returned to us, and that everything is in $ and not an arbitrary secondary currency (points, etc.). It's also easy to accommodate our international staff with adjusted pricing and accessible vendors.
    Cons:
    It can be a little clunky to use Hoppier funds as a recipient, and we have needed to help our older staff more often than others. It is also a little clunky to set up multiple programs when staff may need to be added to the same one that was already used (i.e. "Bingo Winners" for a repeat winner).

    Initially the cards were not presented alphabetically and there was no search function. I am not sure if this has been corrected yet.

    The per-invitation spend is a bit harder to explain to leadership to secure funding. It can also be a bit difficult to manage how much money to load to cover the cost of a campaign, especially when you already have an existing balance.
