## Raise Reviews
  ### 1. Great for gift cards in bulk

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ernest  K. | Physical therapist assistant , Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2019

**What do you like best about Raise?**

Ability to purchase gift cards in bulk for discount. I can get plenty at once avoiding major taxing issues. 

**What do you dislike about Raise?**

The discounts are low I would rather see 30%-50%.  I only see discounts for 2-6% that just covers tax. Also theres no points system to reward for being an active customers. 

**Recommendations to others considering Raise:**

Great to use as an incentive based program for co workers birthdays and personal accomplishments. 

**What problems is Raise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Issues purchasing gift cards in bulk. Its a great incentive based program to implement to utilize for coworkers accomplishments and birthdays. 

  ### 2. I fold 

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** S W. | Owner, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 25, 2019

**What do you like best about Raise?**

The only thing I have found raise to be helpful for is the exchange of gift cards  with a sense of confidence.  Assurance of the balance, validity and seller is not necessary and the platform isn't hard to navigate payment and payout acceptance of information the concept 

**What do you dislike about Raise?**

Lack of fulfilling instruct, verbiage is a bit confusing 

**Recommendations to others considering Raise:**

Be prepared to try and err much

**What problems is Raise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Basically cuts the work out of cold sell and sales

  ### 3. Great way to save on gift cards 

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2019

**What do you like best about Raise?**

Raise is easy to use and is an easy way to cut costs when gifting. 

**What do you dislike about Raise?**

Based on limited inventory of a specific product, it’s tough to know what will be available. 

**What problems is Raise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Quick and easy to use 

  ### 4. Pretty Easy to Use

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2018

**What do you like best about Raise?**

I like the ability to search through the offerings and filter by price and discount. It's pretty easy to use due to an intuitive interface. I also like the ability to go back through my purchase history to see where I've been saving the most money.

**What do you dislike about Raise?**

If you forget your pin, you have to call in and that's a huge pain. I've been using other software since I don't understand the extra layer of verification. Why should I call in when I will be finished with the transaction through someone else's mobile app? Also, the inability to know if gift cards were used or how much is remaining through their interface is not very friendly. I would prefer to have that tracked on their platform. 

**Recommendations to others considering Raise:**

A good source to pick up discounted gift cards for team member gifts or to help pay for team meals if on a budget. 

**What problems is Raise solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When the budget is small, I like using Raise to plan team events, gifts, meals, etc. Even saving 5-10% adds up since it's real savings for scrappy companies.
