Peanut Butter has been a game changer for me **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lynette S. | Assistant Director of Student Accounts, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2025 **What do you like best about Peanut Butter?** That $50 a month toward my student loans might not seem like much, but over time, it adds up—and more importantly, it shows that my employer cares about my financial future. It's one less thing to stress about each month, and that peace of mind means a lot. I'm really grateful to be part of a company that offers this kind of support. - What I like best about Peanut Butter is that it directly tackles one of the biggest financial burdens people face—student debt. It's not a flashy perk, but it's one that really matters. -I love that Peanut Butter helps me chip away at my loans without even thinking about it. That consistency, month after month, adds up—and it feels great to watch my balance go down faster. -What I appreciate most is the peace of mind. Every bit helps, and having that monthly contribution takes a little weight off my shoulders, **What do you dislike about Peanut Butter?** The hardest part about using Peanut Butter was the application process, my struggles were more with my loan vendor than Peanut Butter since I always struggle logging into my student loan vendor website. That was a necessary step in the process because you had to show how much student loan debt you have. If I had to pick something, it’s that I wish the monthly contribution was a bit higher. $50 is helpful, but with the size of most student loans, even a small increase could make a bigger dent in my student debt. **What problems is Peanut Butter solving and how is that benefiting you?** Peanut Butter is solving the problem of student loan debt—a financial burden that affects millions of workers and often delays major life milestones like buying a home, saving for retirement, or starting a family. Peanut Butter helps reduce my student loan balance faster by contributing $50 a month directly toward my debt. That consistent support adds up over time, saves me interest, and gives me peace of mind. It’s also a clear signal that my employer values my financial well-being, not just my work. **Official Response from David Aronson:** > Hi Lynette, thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and detailed review. We are so happy to hear that this benefit has been a "game changer" for you. You perfectly captured the real 'why' behind this support. It is about more than the contribution itself; it's about the peace of mind and the powerful message it sends when an employer shows they care about their team's financial well-being. Your company is a true champion for offering such a meaningful benefit. We appreciate your feedback on the setup process and are glad you were able to work through the challenges with the loan vendor's site. We also understand your desire for the monthly contribution to make an even bigger impact. That amount is set by each employer, and feedback like yours is valuable to them as they design and evolve their benefits program. Thank you again for sharing your story. It's hearing from employees like you that motivates us every day. ### 4.

It's a great service that offered to make monthly contributions to my student loans. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Joshua E. | Brand Lead in Digital Marketing, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2025 **What do you like best about Peanut Butter?** They paid $50 of my monthly student loans payments. This equated to about half of my student loan payment each month. It was easy to use and easy to integrate, and I wish I had heard of them sooner. **What do you dislike about Peanut Butter?** Frankly, I'm not sure there are any downsides. Because of them, I paid less each month. What's not to like? **What problems is Peanut Butter solving and how is that benefiting you?** My company offered Peanut Butter's services to us as a perk.

Helped me pay down my debt! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2025 **What do you like best about Peanut Butter?** I liked that it automatically applied an extra payment to my student loan account every month, and that I was able to easily switch it to a different account once my first account was paid in full. **What do you dislike about Peanut Butter?** I do wish it allowed me to apply the monthly benefit to my spouse's student loan account - my name is not on the account, so I cannot apply. It would be nice to apply the benefit to a family member like a spouse or child once the primary employee's loans are paid in full. **What problems is Peanut Butter solving and how is that benefiting you?** Peanut Butter helped me pay down my student loan - paying off my student loan allows me to focus on my spouse's student loan so we can eventually save for a home and start a family. **Official Response from David Aronson:** > Thank you for sharing your success with us. Congratulations on paying off your first student loan—that is a huge milestone. We're thrilled that your employer offers a benefit that helps you and your family reach your financial goals. It’s great to hear you found it easy to switch the contribution to your next loan. We also appreciate your thoughtful suggestion about applying the benefit to a spouse's loan. For the benefit to remain tax-free for all employees, current IRS regulations require that employer contributions be made only to a loan in the employee's name. We are cheering you on as you now focus on your spouse's loan and work toward saving for a home. ### 7.

I am not sure if this can be done but I currently do not know how. **What problems is Peanut Butter solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are trying to help our people with student loans because we understand how burdensome this is for many of them. Even if we contribute just a tiny bit, our people love it! **Official Response from David Aronson:** > Thanks for sharing this, Jerry! Your efforts to retain your talented team members by contributing to their student loans will go a long way. We strive to make our portal user-friendly, so we're glad to know that this has been reflected in your experience! If you'd like to see a subset of employees, just use the filter on the Employee Info page, or contact your Customer Success Manager to request a delation. By default, the system will maintain records of suspended users so that you (as employer) maintain a record of who was eligible and who received contributions. ### 50.
