"Easy way to pay tips out daily!"

4/5

What do you like best about Branch?

Branch is easy to use and identify employees that have accounts and those that still need accounts. Working with a daily file that provides the correct pay amounts makes it easy and seamless to pay Employees tips out daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Branch?

It can be difficult to ensure that Employees have correctly activated their card and account to ensure that they have access to their funds. 95% of the time it is easy, but for Employees that are not tech-savy the process can be cumbersome and difficult to help them navigate. The Employee/card holder Branch support Team is not helpful in assisting with these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Branch?

When an employee is requesting help by calling into Branch - They turn them back to us. I in turn have to email as I do not have the answer and Branch does have to take care of the issue afterall. It just seems like we go in circle when help is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Branch is Extremely helpful in me running 4 Restaurants!!"

5/5

What do you like best about Branch?

Branch is quick and easy!! My employees LOVED when we tranisitoned to branch. They get paid everyday instantly! It keeps my on my toes with distributing tips daily instead of weekly. There were times before I introduced Branch to the Restaurant Group that I would fall behind on my tip spreadsheet. I would find myself having to rush to finish it at the end of the week. When you rush mistakes happen. Mistakes with peoples money is not a good thing. Now Branch is part of my daily ruteen! It has also put the restaurant group as a whole in a better postion finacially. Not having to have a weekly pay out of tips being deducted from the bank accounts is probably the most important! Having Branch deduct it form our account daily has put us in a better postion.

Thank you Branch! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Branch?

Honestly, I don't have anything bad to say about Branch. I have not ran into anything that I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Branch solving and how is that benefiting you?

Branch is helping our restaurant gorup tremendously. It forces me to do my tip spreasheet daily. We are paying our staff daily. Before I was putting it off and rushing to finish the spreadsheet for the week. When you rush mistakes happen. Mistakes with peoples money is not a good thing.

Secondly, which is most important. Instead of paying out weekly tips form the bank accounts for 4 different restaurants. Now we are paying out daily. The daily deductions from the accounts vs the large weekly sum has put the restaurant group as a whole in a much better finacal position!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very intuitive and user-friendly system to eliminate cash payouts"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Branch?

The biggest upside is not having to replenish petty cash multiple times per week at every restaurant location for server tip payouts. It saves everybody in the company time and the onboarding and training was seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Branch?

The only downside is the possibility for user error. Even with the checks in place, you can't completely eliminate human error and your risk is a bit greater than if you were limited to only cash-on-hand, but it hasn't been too big of an issue for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
